Season 4 of The Bear will officially premiere tonight at 8 P.M. ET/5 P.M. PT. The FX and Hulu comedy-drama starring Jeremy Allen White and Ayo Edebiri will drop all 10 episodes at once, as is customary for the hit series. While fans have been waiting a year for the new season, they’ll inevitably be wondering about where the show will go next once they’ve finished bingeing. Here’s what we know about the future of The Bear so far.
Will there be a season 5 of The Bear?
As of right now, The Bear hasn’t been renewed for a fifth season.
When John Landgraf, head of FX, was asked if season 4 would be the last, he wasn’t sure. “These decisions are really creative decisions,” he told Variety in 2024. “It was Sterlin Harjo who made a decision that Rez Dogs was a three-season series. And so it’s really Chris [Storer’s] decision on The Bear. It’s about, how much more story does he have to tell? I mean, obviously, I’m hoping he has more than one more season of story to tell. But not to the extent that if there was one great season or three mediocre ones, I’d rather have one great one. You just have to follow the creative.”
Who would be cast in season 5 of The Bear?
It would be expected that series regulars would return, including: Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Liza Colón-Zayas, Abby Elliott, Lionel Boyce, Matty Matheson, and many others. But we’ll have to see how season 4 ends, and whether FX adds any new cast members. Watch this space for more news as it comes.
