- FX's "The Bear" returns for season four on Wednesday, June 25.
- All 10 episodes will be released at once on Hulu.
- Contrary to reports, seasons three and four weren't filmed back to back.
FX will be serving up more episodes of "The Bear" soon.
Season three of the Emmy-winning series, centered on chef Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto's (Jeremy Allen White) mission to transform his family's beef shop into an upscale fine-dining restaurant, was released in June 2024. The 10-episode season ended with a title card that reads, "To be continued."
After a year, "The Bear" will be back this June to address that cryptic cliffhanger ending.
Here's everything we know so far.
Some scenes for season 4 were already filmed in 2024
In March 2024, The Hollywood Reporter and Deadline reported that the show was quietly renewed and that seasons three and four would be filmed back to back. The publications reported that this production change was meant to keep the show's release timeline intact and accommodate the cast's availability.
However, during a season three virtual press conference attended by Business Insider, the cast hedged when a reporter asked if seasons three and four were filmed back to back.
"We did something like that," White said.
"Yeah, a little version of it, sort of. But not exactly," cast mate Ayo Edebiri added.
Days later, The Playlist reported that season four wasn't filmed in its entirety because the scripts weren't ready.
FX confirmed to the publication that seasons three and four weren't filmed back to back uninterrupted, but some parts for the next installment were shot.
Season 4 will release all at once on June 25
All 10 episodes of season four of "The Bear" will be released on Hulu on Wednesday, June 25, at 8 p.m. ET. The new season will also be available internationally on Disney+ at the same time.
