After much anticipation, The Bear returns with Season 4 on June 25, bringing viewers back into the fast-paced world of Chicago’s fine-dining scene. All 10 episodes will be released at once on Hulu and FX, giving fans the opportunity to binge the entire season from day one.
The award-winning series continues to follow the life of Chef Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto, played by Jeremy Allen White, as he tries to keep his ambitious restaurant afloat while navigating personal and professional challenges. Season 3 ended with major questions hanging in the air—especially about the future of Carmy’s team and the restaurant they’ve poured everything into.
Full Season Drop and Key Storylines
Season 4 picks up immediately after the events of Season 3, diving back into the pressure-cooker environment of The Bear. Carmy, Sydney (Ayo Edebiri), and Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) are dealing with the fallout of a high-stakes restaurant review that could make or break their business.
Sydney faces a tough choice about whether to continue working with Carmy or pursue her own path. At the same time, Richie tries to balance his responsibilities in the restaurant with his own personal growth. Each character is at a turning point, and Season 4 explores how their choices impact both the business and their relationships.
Returning cast members include Abby Elliott as Natalie (Carmy’s sister), Lionel Boyce as Marcus, Liza Colón-Zayas as Tina, and Matty Matheson as Fak. Jamie Lee Curtis is also back as Carmy’s mother, Donna Berzatto, whose presence continues to stir up emotional tension.
Behind the scenes, the original creative team remains in place. Series creators Christopher Storer and Joanna Calo return as showrunners. Ayo Edebiri and Lionel Boyce, who also star in the show, contributed to writing some of the new season’s episodes.
What Makes Season 4 Stand Out
As with previous seasons, The Bear Season 4 blends high-pressure kitchen scenes with character-driven storytelling. It explores themes like ambition, mental health, family, and the realities of running a fine-dining restaurant.
While Season 3 was more introspective, Season 4 moves at a faster pace. The stakes are higher, and every decision Carmy and his team make could change the future of the restaurant. Viewers can expect moments of intensity, heartfelt drama, and realistic portrayals of working in the hospitality industry.
The Bear has gained a strong following for its authenticity and storytelling. It has also received multiple Emmy awards, including recognition for its writing and performances. With all episodes available on day one, Season 4 is expected to make a major impact with fans and critics alike.
