The highly anticipated third season arrived in the U.S. yesterday (June 26) ahead of schedule, and is now available to stream in the U.K. today (June 27) on Disney+.
The popular comedy-drama – which has been hailed a huge commercial and critical success since its premiere two years ago – stars Jeremy Allen White as a chef who returns to manage his late brother’s chaotic sandwich shop in Chicago.
Ayo Edebiri and Ebon Moss-Bachrach also star in the show, which debuted in 2022 and returned for a second season in 2023. It’s since racked up 10 Emmys and four Golden Globes, including Best Performance awards for stars Allen White and Edebiri.
A synopsis of the new season reads: “Season three of FX’s The Bear follows Carmen “Carmy” Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White), Sydney Adamu (Ayo Edebiri) and Richard “Richie” Jerimovich (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as they do what it takes to elevate The Bear, their beef stand turned fine dining establishment, to the highest level, all while doing their best just to stay in business. It’s a losing battle every single day in the restaurant business. Carmy pushes himself harder than ever, and demands excellence from his crew, who do their best to match his intensity.
“Their quest for culinary excellence will propel the crew to new levels and stress the bonds that hold the restaurant together. As the team grows in size, each member will strive to reach a greater level of service within their role. In the restaurant industry, you’re never on solid ground, and with that ever-changing landscape comes new challenges and opportunities. Our chefs have learned that every second counts, but this season we’ll find out if they have what it takes to make it to tomorrow.”

Will there be a season four of The Bear?
The fourth season has already been greenlit ahead of today’s season three premiere according to reports from both Variety and Deadline. While FX hasn’t officially announced the news yet, it is expected to follow in the coming days.
Has filming already started on season four?
Reports say show makers are shooting seasons three and four back-to-back with filming on season four expected to already be underway. NME has also reached out to FX for comment.
Will season four be the last?
Not necessarily, although fans are pointing out another FX series, Atlanta, ended after seasons three and four were shot back to back.
When will season four arrive?
While there have been no official announcements about the new season yet, it is likely to be another year before we see Carmy and co back on our screens. However, with reports of shooting seasons three and four back to back, this could mean season four arrives ahead of schedule.
