Courtney Storer serves as a co-executive producer and culinary producer. The series is produced by FX Productions.
“’The Bear’ continues to be a fan favorite worldwide and their response to this season—as seen through incredibly high viewership—has been as spectacular as any of its previous seasons,” said John Landgraf, chairman of FX. “Year-in and year-out, Chris Storer, the producers, cast and crew make ‘The Bear’ one of the best shows on television, and we are excited that they will continue to tell this magnificent story.”
There had been speculation about whether the show would continue following the meteoric rise of its cast and conflicting schedules. White, Edebiri and Moss-Bachrach are all navigating packed calendars.
White will portray Bruce Springsteen in the upcoming 20th Century Studios biopic “Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere,” which is expected to be a significant Oscar contender later this year. Edebiri will appear opposite Julia Roberts in Luca Guadagnino’s “After the Hunt,” set for release in October. She is also set to star alongside Woody Harrelson in James L. Brooks’ “Ella McCay,” which premieres in December.
