Hulu’s comedy-drama “The Bear,” starring Jeremy Allen White and Ayo Edebiri, has become one of the most acclaimed and beloved shows in recent years. With Season 3 of “The Bear” set to premiere in June, there have been speculation about the series’ ending, especially after its stars have been in-demand for new projects. However, that’s not the case, per new reports.
Reel Chicago first reported that FX/Hulu wants to renew the show for a fourth season, but Christopher Storer, creator and showrunner, “only committed to three seasons and needs to move on to a long list of projects.” Recently, Deadline announced that Storer will adapt and direct Amor Towles’ The Lincoln Highway for Warner Bros.
