FX's "The Bear," the critically acclaimed,
Emmy(R) Award-winning hit series, will premiere its fifth and final season on
Thursday, June 25 at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT on FX and Hulu, as well as
internationally on Disney+. All eight episodes will be available to stream at
debut.
Today's news comes on the heels of yesterday's surprise
release of "Gary," a flashback episode of "The Bear"
co-written by and starring Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Jon Bernthal that follows
Richie (Moss-Bachrach) and Mikey (Bernthal) on a work trip to Gary, Indiana.
Fans can discover the episode by searching for "Gary" on Hulu and
Disney+.
Premiering on June 25, the fifth and final season of FX's
"The Bear" picks up the morning after Sydney (Ayo Edebiri), Richie
and Natalie "Sugar" (Abby Elliott) discover that Carmy (Jeremy Allen
White) has quit the food industry, leaving the restaurant to them. With no
money, the threat of a sale and a torrential storm in their way, the new
partners must band together with the rest of the team to achieve one last
service, hoping they'll finally earn a Michelin star. Ultimately, they learn
that what makes a restaurant "perfect" might not be the food, but the
people.
The half-hour series also stars Lionel Boyce, Liza
Colón-Zayas and Matty Matheson, with Ricky Staffieri, Oliver Platt, Will
Poulter and Jamie Lee Curtis in recurring roles.
The FX premiere will include the first two episodes followed
by one new episode airing weekly. All previous seasons are now streaming on
Hulu in the U.S. and Disney+ internationally.
