Jeremy Allen White, who plays Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto in the critically acclaimed FX comedy-drama The Bear, has revealed that filming for the show's fourth season will not commence until next year. In an interview with Esquire UK, White said he expects the production to begin "sometime early next year," around February or March. This aligns with the filming schedule of the previous seasons. So, when are we expecting the release date?
'The Bear' Season 3: A success despite ratings dip
The third season of The Bear, consisting of 10 episodes, was released on Hulu on June 24. Despite a slight dip in ratings compared to the first two seasons (which hold an impressive 100% and 99% ratings on Rotten Tomatoes), the latest installment still managed a strong 90%. This has left fans eagerly anticipating the next chapter in the life of Carmy.
White talks about Carmy's character development
White, who reprised his role as Carmy for the third season, shared some insights about his character's development. He said that Carmy continues to repeat his mistakes and struggles with expressing remorse. "He never seems to be able to apologize very well," White told Deadline. He added that Carmy's behavior in Season 3 will resemble his actions after the first season's episode Review.
When can we expect Season 4?
Historically, each season of Bear has premiered in June, starting with S01 in mid-2022. Based on this pattern, a June 2025 release for the return of this acclaimed Hulu and Disney+ show seems likely. FX boss John Landgraf expressed confidence about this timeline, stating to Variety, "I'm incredibly proud and grateful to the team that has dedicated themselves...to bring this thing back annually." "I can't say for sure, but my guess is it'll come back the same time next year."
