FX‘s The Bear is about to reopen! The superbly-acted and intense series returns to FX for its second season on Thursday, June 22, 2023. FX will serve up all ten episodes of The Bear Season 2 on Star+ in Latin America and Disney+ in all other territories later.
The Bear follows Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White), a young chef who, after experiencing a fall from grace in the fine dining world, takes his talents to a family-owned sandwich shop – The Original Beef of Chicagoland. As Carmy adjusts to his situation, he sorts the trauma inflicted by losing his brother and the trials and tribulations of running a small business on the brink of collapse. With the help of his co-workers, Carmy discovers a found family he never thought he’d have while preparing for an uncertain future.
During the season one finale of The Bear, Carmydiscovers a stash of money. The cash is a gift from his late brother, Michael (Jon Bernthal). Presumably, there’s enough scratch to bring The Original Beef out of debt and reinvent the space in Carmy’s intended vision for the struggling locale. Is money enough to answer all their prayers, or will it bring more issues? You know what they say, mo money mo problems.
The Bear season one features Jeremy Allen White (Shameless, The Iron Claw), Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Girls, The Punisher), Ayo Edibiri (What We Do in the Shadows, Thunderbolts), Lionel Boyce (Loiter Squad, The Jellies), Liza Colón-Zayas (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, David Makes Man), Edwin Lee Gibson (Fargo, Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty), Corey Hendrix (Chicago P.D., Let Us Make Eve), Richard Esteras (Death Wish, When Jeff Tried to Save the World), Abby Elliott (Fun Size, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), Jose M. Cervantes (Chicago Med, Shining Girls), and Matty Matheson (Doug Out, Workin’ Mom), with Bob Odenkirk guest starring.
The Bear Season 2 finds Carmy, Sydney Adamu (Ayo Edebiri), and Richard “Richie” Jerimovich (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) transforming The Original Beef into The Bear, a new restaurant the team can be proud of. Still, change is challenging, and the staff of The Bear still have a lot to learn about being a team and not standing in the way of each other’s dreams. Soul-searching is getting added to the menu. Who’s hungry?
