AFC Richmond will be down a player next match.

Phil Dunster, who played Jamie Tartt, is out as a “Ted Lasso” series regular, Apple TV+ announced on Monday.

According to Deadline, Dunster had a conflict, as he signed on to be a series regular on an untitled new HBO comedy with Steve Carell. However, he may be able to appear in “Ted Lasso” Season 4 in a “limited capacity.” 

The Post reached out to Dunster for comment.

Meanwhile, Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Jeremy Swift and Brendan Hunt are set to reprise their roles.

Several newcomers are also joining the cast, including Tanya Reynolds, Jude Mack, Faye Marsay, Rex Hayes, Aisling Sharkey, Abbie Hern and Grant Feely, who will play Ted’s son, Henry.

Feely is re-cast, as Henry was previously played by Gus Turner.

Season 4 of the hit Emmy-winning comedy has begun production in Kansas City, Missouri, which is a marked change from the English setting in earlier seasons. 

“Ted returns to Richmond, taking on his biggest challenge yet: coaching a second division women’s football team,” the official logline reads. “Throughout the course of the season, Ted and the team learn to leap before they look, taking chances they never thought they would.”

The series ran for three seasons before ending in 2023.

The show was a “fish out of water” premise following American football coach Ted Lasso (Sudeikis), who found himself coaching AFC Richmond, an English football (soccer) team on a losing streak. 

Through his positive attitude and folksy sayings, Ted whipped the team into shape, including grumpy Roy Kent (Brett Goldstein, also a writer/producer) and the egotistical Jamie Tartt (Dunster), all while bonding with team owner Rebecca (Waddingham) and PR consultant Keely (Temple). 

A romance between Ted and Rebecca was teased but never materialized, leaving that as a possible plot in Season 4. 

There were hints that a Season 4 would happen after Season 3 ended.

“You can ask anybody that wrote on the show, or acted on the show, or produced the show, and we will all say the same thing, which is, that’s up to Jason Sudeikis,” Lawrence told The Post in August 2024.

In March, Sudeikis confirmed that Season 4 is official. “We’re writing Season 4 now,” the former “Saturday Night Live” star, 49, announced during Travis and Jason Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast. 

A premiere date for “Ted Lasso” Season 4 hasn’t been announced, yet.
