Latest news

FX dropped a full-length trailer for Season 2 in May, giving us our first extended look at what the crew is up to as they work through the pains of opening a new restaurant. "I'm trying to start from a place of positivity," Carmy claims. Can't wait to find out how long that lasts!

The Bear Season 2 teaser

During the Oscars, FX released the first teaser for The Bear Season 2, which finds all our buddies from The Beef packing up shop as they get ready to move over to their new venture, presumably purchased with all that tomato can money. It's short, sweet, and just enough to hold us over until we get some more news.

The Bear Season 2 release date

On May 8, FX confirmed that The Bear Season 2 will premiere on June 22. A press release for the new season reads, "As they strip the restaurant down to its bones, the crew undertakes transformational journeys of their own, each forced to confront the past and reckon with who they want to be in the future."

At the Television Critics Association winter press tour, the cast and crew talked about what's in store for The Bear Season 2. "They think they're starting from a healthy place, but a restaurant, like a lot of other businesses, just creates the same problems," creator Christopher Storer said. "We see them have to step up in certain ways and in some ways regress but hopefully come back together." It was also announced that Season 2 will contain 10 episodes, an upgrade from Season 1's eight.

The Bear Season 2 cast

Molly Gordon will join the Season 2 cast in a recurring role, while Bob Odenkirk will appear in a guest role.

Jeremy Allen White, Ebon Moss-BachrachAyo EdebiriAbby Elliott, Lionel Boyce, Liza Colón-Zayas, Edwin Lee GibsonMatty Matheson, and Oliver Platt will all reprise their roles from Season 1. Here's hoping we also get at least one more Jon Bernthal flashback.

How to watch The Bear

Season 1 of The Bear is available to stream on Hulu.
