‘The Bear' Season 4: The plot, returning cast members, release date and more. Where Carmy, Sydney and the restaurant go from here.
'Every second counts,' and that's made no clearer than on FX's The Bear. Returning on June 25, the Emmy-winning series will transport audiences back to the chaotic fine dining restaurant helmed by tortured culinary genius Carmy Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White).
FX quietly renewed the series for a fourth season in March 2024. The latest season was filmed back-to-back with season 3, Deadline reported.
Ahead, we break down everything you need to know before The Bear returns.
The season three finale ends with a foreboding 'to be continued' on the screen. In the final scene of the season, Carmy looks down at his phone to see that the Chicago Tribune review of his restaurant has posted — and that he has a number of missed calls from both Cicero (Oliver Platt) and the Computer (Brian Koppelman). We don't get a close enough look at the review to fully know whether it's positive or negative, though fans have tried to decipher what it says. Carmy angrily exclaims 'motherf***er' after reading it — if that's any sort of indication. And if the review is bad, Cicero will stop funding the restaurant.
Sydney (Ayo Edebiri), meanwhile, has a tough decision to make: Will she sign the partnership agreement and stick it out with the Bear or jump ship and take up former Ever chef Adam Shapiro's offer as his new chef de cuisine? Carmy's strict list of non-negotiables and toxic pursuit of culinary excellence could be enough reason for Sydney to cut ties with him and start new elsewhere.
In the Season 4 trailer, Carmy seems eager to turn his attitude and the restaurant's morale around, though it may be too late.
'Look, we could do this. We could take care of people. We could make it calm. We could make it delicious. We could make people happy,' Carmy says.
Thankfully, we won't have to wait for weekly episode drops. All 10 episodes of the fourth season will be available to stream on Hulu starting June 25 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.
It wouldn't be The Bear without the group of chefs — or Jeffs — responsible for running it. Fans can rest assured that the entire kitchen staff, including the fan favorites below, are reprising their starring roles:
Jeremy Allen White (Carmen 'Carmy' Berzatto)
Ayo Edebiri (Sydney Adamu)
Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Richard 'Richie' Jerimovich)
Liza Colón-Zayas (Tina Marrero)
Lionel Boyce (Marcus)
Abby Elliott (Natalie 'Sugar' Berzatto)
Matty Matheson (Neil Fak)
While there's no word on whether or not we'll be meeting any new faces, we will be reunited with familiar ones, like Donna (Jamie Lee Curtis), the volatile, unstable matriarch of the Berzatto family. Platt as Cicero and Molly Gordon as Claire Dunlap will also be returning this season.
The Bear has previously featured a noteworthy roster of guest stars like John Cena as Sammy Fak and Josh Hartnett as the fiancé of Richie's ex-wife Tiff (Gillian Jacobs), who were both introduced in the third season. Jon Bernthal, beloved for his role as Carmy and Sugar's big brother who passed away, and Joel McHale as David Fields, Carmy's abusive old boss from New York, also appear in flashbacks throughout the series.
Will Poulter as chef Luca and Olivia Colman as chef Terry emerged as fan favorites during the show's second season. Neither has outright confirmed they're returning, but Poulter's made his adoration of the show common knowledge.
'I really hope so,' Poulter told the Los Angeles Times in April of whether he'd be returning to The Bear. 'I love that show so much. The fact I get to be in it is crazy. When I'm on that set, I'm like, 'Oh, they've let a fan on set.' I literally feel like a competition winner.'
The cast has remained pretty mum on details surrounding the Emmy-winning series' fourth season. What we do know, though, is that Edebiri, who made her directorial debut with Season 3, Episode 6's 'Napkins' on The Bear, also cowrote an episode for Season 4 with Boyce.
'Each season I've gotten to do different things,' Edebiri told actor-director Ramy Youssef for Cultured magazine. 'Last season I directed for the first time and this season I've written an episode. It's been a minute since I've written for TV, and I've learned so much since the last time — even something as simple as knowing what it's like to shoot an overnight. So, my episode will be taking place during the day.'

The official Steelers Pro Shop teased that a reveal is coming, posting an image on social media of what appears to be a close-up of the 50th anniversary 2025 Terrible Towel.

Advertisement The Steelers debuted the Terrible Towel on December 27, 1975, in a playoff matchup against the Baltimore Colts, and it has since become a larger-than-life symbol of Pittsburgh sports — evident by its journeys to unbelievable locations such as Mt.

NBA World Reacts to Kevin Durant Trade on Sunday
NBA World Reacts to Kevin Durant Trade on Sunday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. As NBA fans prepared for a winner-take-all NBA Finals Game 7 between the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder, the blockbuster Kevin Durant trade took the basketball world by storm. Advertisement According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Phoenix Suns are trading the two-time NBA Finals MVP to the Houston Rockets, who finished No. 2 in the Western Conference behind Oklahoma City this season. In return, Phoenix will get Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, the No. 10 pick in the 2025 draft and five second-round picks to form a new core around four-time All-Star guard Devin Booker. Here's what the NBA world had to say about the Durant trade on Sunday. Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (35) and Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (23)© Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn Images Right away, the most notable response came from Durant himself. The 36-year-old was at Fanatics Fest in New York when the news broke, and fans recorded his immediate reaction. He did an interview with Kay Adams from the event shortly after, stating that he "had an idea" about the trade but did not know the news would come out when it did. Advertisement He expressed relief that the constant trade rumors of the past few weeks could be put to rest. Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo, another star player subject to trade rumors since the Bucks' postseason run ended, shared his shock in a two-word message on X. San Antonio Spurs guard Jeremy Sochan needed even fewer words, opting for a gif as he held back his opinion of Durant joining one of San Antonio's in-state rivals. The news breaking at Fanatics Fest led to live reactions from other people who were there and found out the news in person rather than social media. Sports stars like Tom Brady and LeBron James graced the event, mixing with big time social media influencers like Olivia Dunne and Kai Cenat. Advertisement NBA legend Allen Iverson had his gobsmacked reaction caught on camera. Durant averaged 26.6 points, 6.0 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game last season. In his three seasons with the Suns, the team did not make it past the Western Conference semifinals. They missed the NBA playoffs completely in the 2024-2025 season.
