The official trailer for release all 10 episodes of season 4 on June 25, 2025. The Bear looks to reclaim its status as the best comedy series on television after winning Emmys for Outstanding Comedy Series for seasons 1 and 2, with season 3 losing to HBO Max's Hacks season 3.

In the first official trailer for The Bear season 4, Carmy speaks about the philosophy and significance of restaurants, especially great ones, in modern society. "People go to restaurants to be taken care of, to relax, to not have to think about anything for a minute," he says at the start of the trailer. Carmy's Uncle Jimmy, who funded his revamped restaurant throughout The Bear season 3, tells Carmy in the trailer, "That clock is telling you how much money we have left. When that shows 0, this restaurant needs to cease operations." Carmy says later in the trailer, "It's hard, it's brutal, and that's what makes it special."

Since Sydney still appears to be around in The Bear season 4 trailer, it appears that she will not be taking on a new opportunity and leaving Carmy and the crew behind. A new main narrative emerges in The Bear season 4 trailer, with The Bear receiving a handful of less favorable reviews from food critics critiquing the restaurant's "consistency." Even though The Bear season 4 trailer introduces both financial and performance-based challenges, the series' focus on family – both biological and chosen – remains firmly at its heart.

Our Take On The Bear Season 4's First Trailer

Carmy Aims To Reduce Chaos & Increase Healing This Season

Carmy has been a sort of tortured genius throughout The Bear seasons 1-3, always finding a way to get in his own way and never allowing himself to take a breath of relief. Based on The Bear's season 4 trailer, Carmy looks to be reframing his approach to his restaurant as a place of relaxation and calm as opposed to the signature brand of chaos that previously made the show so gripping (and anxiety-inducing). Even though the financial and critical pressures remain relentlessly persistent, Carmy appears to be maturing not only as a chef and a leader but as a human being.

That said, it wouldn't be a season of The Bear without toxicity and trauma, which is sure to sprout up through various developments and flashbacks. The return of Jamie Lee Curtis's character, Donna, is one of the biggest reveals from The Bear season 4 trailer, as she appears to reunite with Carmy after failing to attend his restaurant opening in the season 2 finale. There should also be more insight into other ing characters' backstories, like The Bear season 3's standout episode "Napkins", which explored Tina's origin story and won Liza Colón-Zayas an Emmy.
