‘The Bear’ Season 4 first look teases return of Jamie Lee Curtis
The streaming services are happy to look ahead to 2025. Two days after HBO and Max released a sizzle reel to tease the network’s upcoming shows – including Season 4 of “Hacks,” Season 3 of “The White Lotus,” and Season 2 of “The Last of Us” – Disney+ and Hulu have unveiled its stable of 2025 series, including the first look at “The Bear” Season 4.
In the brief footage from the new batch of “The Bear” episodes, Emmy winner Jamie Lee Curtis is shown reprising her role as Donna Berzatto. (Of note for fans is that it appears Curtis’ character is sharing the scene with Ayo Edebiri’s Sydney, the first time these two performers and characters have been together at the same time on the series so far.)
It’s unknown when FX’s “The Bear” will return to Hulu, but it wouldn’t be unwise to bet on a June return like prior seasons. The third season of “The Bear” earned some lukewarm reviews from critics and fans, and will be eligible for Emmy Award consideration at the 2025 ceremony. The response to the recent batch of episodes potentially cost “The Bear” the 2024 Emmy for Best Comedy Series, although there is no proof about that cause and effect beyond general vibes.
“The Bear” is but one series featured in the Disney+ teaser. Other programs showcased include “Andor” (Season 2 of the acclaimed show returns in April), Marvel series “Daredevil” and “Ironheart,” and Sterling K. Brown’s political thriller “Paradise.”
