βThe Bearβ is headed back to our screens for its fourth season β a 10-episode drop, all at once! β and fans are getting a sneak peek at the chaos that will ensue.
The pressure is on for Carmy (Jeremy Allen White), Sydney (Ayo Edebiri), Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) and The Bear crew as Uncle Jimmy (Oliver Platt) demands more from his investment in the restaurant.
βWhen that clock shows zero, this restaurant needs to cease operations,β Uncle Jimmy says in a new teaser shared on May 29.
With the table set and the clock ticking, the team is fired up and ready to go.
The Emmy-winning, anxiety-inducing and food-forward show will see the return of fan-favorite characters as they continue to elevate their fine-dining establishment.
Here is everything we know (so far) about Season 4 of βThe Bear,β including where to watch it and who is returning from the cast.
When will βThe Bearβ Season 4 premiere?
βThe Bearβ Season 4 will premiere Wednesday, June 25 at 8 p.m. ET with all 10 episodes on Hulu.
In a March 2025 Hulu video, a number of shows were teased, including the upcoming season of βThe Bear.β The show was included in the βcoming this Springβ section and around the 35-second mark includes scenes from Season 4 of βThe Bear.β
βSometimes I feel like your work family is part of your family, family,β Sydney says in the clip.
Where can I watch βThe Bearβ?
As an FX original series, the show is only available on FXβs designated streaming platform: Hulu. While you may have been able to watch past seasons on FX, this season, Hulu (or Disney+ if youβre a bundle subscriber) is the only confirmed way to watch the show.
What will βThe Bearβ Season 4 be about?
Season 4 of βThe Bearβ will see The Bear employees pushing forward, determined not only to survive, but also to take the restaurant to the next level.
βWith new challenges around every corner, the team must adapt, adjust and overcome. The pursuit of excellence isnβt just about getting better β itβs about deciding whatβs worth holding on to,β according to the seasonβs description.
The official trailer for the upcoming season was released on May 20. The video gives an overview of the financial, professional and personal struggles that the crew will endure in the fourth season.
βPeople go to restaurants to be taken care of, to relax, to not have to think about anything else for a minute,β Carmy says in the voiceover at the top of the sneak peek, as he turns the lights on in the kitchen of his restaurant. However, he later notes, βItβs hard and itβs brutal, and thatβs what makes it special.β
From the trailer, viewers can assume that Carmy and the team will be dealing with The Chicago Tribune restaurant review, as well as finances.
However, could Sydney also leave The Bear and go work for chef Adam (Adam Shapiro)? Will Season 4 continue to dive into Carmyβs personal life and strained relationships with Richie and Claire? Fans will have to wait and see.
When it comes to Moss-Bachrach, the actor told Rolling Stone in September 2024 that he knows whatβs next for his character Richie.
βI know where heβs going. I think thereβs a lot of things that happen in the third season β¦ seeds planted in the third season that really come to bloom in the fourth season,β he said. βI think it will be a very, very exciting, chaotic, cathartic season, and yeah, I guess Iβll just leave it there.β
