FX’s critically acclaimed, award-winning comedy The Bear has been renewed for a much-deserved third season. Season one earned 13 Emmy Award nominations and currently sits at 100% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. Season two, which premiered in June 2023 on Hulu, earned a 99% fresh rating, which is incredibly impressive for a sophomore season.
Jeremy Allen White leads the cast as Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto, Ayo Edebiri stars as Sydney Adamu, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach plays Richard “Richie” Jerimovich. The season two cast also included Abby Elliott as Natalie “Sugar” Berzatto, Lionel Boyce as Marcus, Liza Colón-Zayas as Tina, Edwin Lee Gibson as Ebraheim, and Matty Matheson as Neil Fak. Edwin Lee Gibson and Oliver Platt returned in recurring roles, and Jon Bernthal and Jamie Leigh Curtis guest-starred.
Christopher Storer (Ramy, Eighth Grade) created the series and serves as an executive producer along with Joanna Calo, Hiro Murai, Josh Senior, and Matty Matheson.
“The Bear, which wowed audiences in its first season only to achieve even greater heights in season two, has become a cultural phenomenon,” said Nick Grad, President, FX Entertainment. “We’re so proud to partner with Christopher Storer, Joanna Calo, Josh Senior, and the rest of the creative team, as well as the brilliant cast led by Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri and Ebon Moss-Bachrach. What they and the crew have done is truly remarkable, and we and our partners at Hulu join fans in looking forward to the next chapter in the story of The Bear.”
Season three is expected to premiere in 2024 on Hulu.
FX offered this description of The Bear season two:
“Season two followed Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto, Sydney Adamu, and Richard “Richie” Jerimovich as they worked to transform their grimy sandwich joint into a next-level spot. As they stripped the restaurant down to its bones, the crew undertook transformational journeys of their own, each forced to confront the past and reckon with who they want to be in the future.
Of course, it turned out the only thing harder than running a restaurant was opening a new one, and the team had to juggle the insane bureaucracy of permits and contractors with the beauty and creative agony of menu planning. The transition brought a newfound focus on hospitality as well. As the entire staff was forced to come together in new ways, pushing the boundaries of their abilities and relationships, they also learned what it means to be in service, both to diners and each other.”
In addition to its 13 Emmy nominations, The Bear has been recognized with a WGA Award, PGA Award, Film Independent Spirit Award, American Cinema Editors Award, and an ACE Eddie Award. It was also named the AFI TV Program of the Year, and Jeremy Allen White won SAG and Critics Choice awards for lead actor in a comedy series.
