'The Bear' to End with Season 5, Jamie Lee Curtis Says
------------------------------------------------------
"The Bear" is ending with its upcoming fifth season, according
to recurring guest star Jamie Lee Curtis.
The actress recently posted a photo of herself and co-star
Abby Elliott from the set of Season 5 that got fans talking
about whether the FX show was reaching its finale. In her
caption, Curtis wrote, "FINISHED STRONG! Surrounded by an
extraordinary crew and group of writers and producers and
scene partners on the show that Chris Storer created,
completing the story of this extraordinary family that we have
all fallen in love with."
In a new interview with Access Hollywood, a reporter said to
Curtis, "People think you were confirming the show is ending."
Curtis responded, "But everybody's confirmed the show is ending.
I don't understand why that's such a [big deal]. Unless I'm
gonna get a call from all the people saying, 'You just told
[everyone],' I think everybody understood that it was the last
season of the show. If it isn't, then I've completely blown it."
FX did not immediately respond to Variety's request for comment
about the end of "The Bear."
"The Bear" premiered in 2022 and most recently aired its fourth
season in June 2025. Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri, Ebon
