FX’s acclaimed series The Bear returns for its fourth season on June 26, with all episodes set to stream exclusively on Disney+. Viewers looking to catch up can also find the first three seasons on the platform.
Following a third season that chronicled the launch of a high-stakes fine dining restaurant, the new season delves deeper into the demanding world of hospitality. The story continues to follow Carmy (Jeremy Allen White), Sydney (Ayo Edebiri), and Richie (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as they navigate the challenges of maintaining standards under mounting pressure. Season four shifts its focus toward growth and adaptation, capturing the tension between ambition and sustainability in a fiercely competitive environment.
The narrative builds on the emotional and professional arcs that have defined the series so far, placing its characters in situations that test their resolve and relationships. The return of core cast members Abby Elliott, Lionel Boyce, Liza Colón-Zayas, and Matty Matheson, along with recurring appearances by Oliver Platt and Molly Gordon, ensures continuity and depth to the ensemble-driven storytelling.
The Bear has earned substantial critical recognition, including a record-breaking 23 Emmy nominations for its third season, and several major wins across acting, directing, and technical categories. It has also been honored by organizations such as the Golden Globes, Critics Choice, and SAG, solidifying its reputation as a standout in contemporary television.
Created by Christopher Storer and produced by FX Productions, the series continues to offer an unfiltered look at the culinary world while exploring themes of resilience, loyalty, and the personal costs of perfection. While it remains centered on food and family, the show’s strength lies in its grounded portrayal of the relentless grind behind closed kitchen doors.
Disney+ offers streaming access to The Bear with parental controls to manage viewing options for households. Users can set content restrictions and create secure profiles to tailor the experience.
