The Bear Star Corey Hendrix Predicts Four More Seasons for Hit Restaurant Drama

Corey Hendrix, known for his role as Gary “Sweeps” Woods in the acclaimed series The Bear, has confidently projected that the hit restaurant drama could effortlessly extend for another four seasons.

Hendrix shared his insights during an event for the series “The Bear” in Los Angeles, emphasizing the potential for more storytelling in the show as he portrayed Gary “Sweeps” Woods.

The Bear, which stars Jeremy Allen White as Carmy Berzatto, swept awards at the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards this year with six wins, including Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for White.

The series traces the journey of award-winning chef Carmy as he endeavors to transform his late brother’s sandwich shop into a high-end dining establishment, with Moss-Bachrach and Edebiri also delivering stellar performances.

Reflecting on the immense success of The Bear, Moss-Bachrach expressed both gratitude and amusement at instances where fans vocally recognized him as “Cousin” from the show, sharing candid moments of interaction with enthusiasts in public.

Despite the growing acclaim for his role as Sweeps, Hendrix shared humorous instances of fans approaching him in various locations, often associating him with his character but struggling to pinpoint the exact connection immediately.

As the anticipation builds for the release of The Bear’s third season on June 27, 2024, fans eagerly await the continuation of the engaging storyline that has captivated audiences worldwide.

The decision to film two consecutive seasons stems from the demanding schedules of the cast, including Edebiri and White, who have been actively engaged in various projects beyond The Bear.

Edebiri’s versatile acting ventures in 2023 encompassed roles in productions such as Bottoms, Theater Camp, and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, showcasing her range as a performer.

On the other hand, White delved into projects like The Iron Claw alongside Zac Efron and is slated to embody the legendary Bruce Springsteen in the upcoming biographical film Deliver Me from Nowhere, underscoring his versatility as an actor outside The Bear’s realm.

The highly-anticipated third season of The Bear is set to premiere on in the United States and on Disney+ for audiences in the UK and Ireland, promising audiences more culinary intrigue and dramatic twists as the series continues its successful run.
