The wait is finally over, as the much-anticipated Season 2 of The Bear has received a release date. The show's lead, Carmy, has seen major character development throughout Season 1. Nobody ever questioned his ability to cook, as he had always been a top chef, but managing an entire restaurant is not child's play.

Even though he frequently had issues with his crew, he was able to develop a bond with each one of them and make his departed brother's failing restaurant into a thriving business.

On June 22, 2023, The Bear Season 2 will be released on Hulu. It will have 10 episodes, all of which will be available at once. The cast includes Liza Colón-Zayas, Abby Elliott, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Ayo Edebiri, Jeremy Allen White, and Lionel Boyce.


What to expect from The Bear Season 2?

Season 1 of The Bear ended on a very high note, with Carmy and his entire staff discovering a tonne of cash his brother had hidden in the restaurant before his untimely death. The restaurant, which was previously named The Beef, will now change its name to The Bear and will see some major renovations.

The small food joint is now on its way to turning into a profitable restaurant.

Season 2's official trailer released by FX Networks:

From the trailer, we learn that the reopening of the restaurant is in full swing. Carmy, Sugar, and Sydney are seen pitching to Jimmy about a major change, while new chefs are also being hired.

Carmy continues to attend support groups, and we catch a glimpse of him confronting his ex-girlfriend. In the upcoming season, there will be more drama, more cooking, and many climactic moments. We know that they are not broke anymore, and this time, the sky is the limit.

The show has been particularly praised for the amazing chemistry between lead actors Jeremy Allen White and Ayo Edebiri.

In an interview with Variety, White revealed how he met his costar:

"When we started at culinary school, we were instantly almost competitive with one another which was very, very weird. We didn’t really know each other. We’d met and we were excited to do the show, and then this quiet competition started to sort of impress our teacher. It was odd but worked for the show"

Co-showrunner Joanna Calo added:

"The relationship that Ayo and Jeremy have is so special and really different from the relationship that she has with Ebon and the relationship that she has with Lionel. There is this really special thing where they all took the assignment really seriously and became friends in different ways."

Created by Christopher Storer, the show is a fast-paced comedy-drama that explores the life of a talented chef with a depressing past.

According to Rotten Tomatoes, its official synopsis reads:

"A young chef from the fine dining world comes home to Chicago to run his family sandwich shop after a heartbreaking death in his family. A world away from what he's used to, Carmy must balance the soul-crushing realities of small business ownership, his strong-willed and recalcitrant kitchen staff and his strained familial relationships, all while grappling with the impact of his brother's suicide."

It further states:

"As Carmy fights to transform both the shop and himself, he works alongside a rough-around-the-edges kitchen crew that ultimately reveals itself as his chosen family."

Christopher Storer, Joanna Calo, Josh Senior, Hiro Murai, and Nate Matteson are some of the show's executive producers.


On June 22, 2023, The Bear Season 2 will be released on Hulu.
