The Bear was the most nominated at the 2025 Golden Globe Awards — but how many awards did the show win?
The hit series was nominated for the most TV awards on Sunday, January 5, including Best Musical or Comedy Television Series, Best Performance in a Television Series – Musical or Comedy for Jeremy Allen White and Ayo Edebiri. Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Liza Colón-Zayas also received nods for their respective performances in the Best Supporting Performance category. While Colón-Zayas, 52, didn’t win her category, White, 33, scored the win for Best Performance despite not being at the awards show and The Bear lost for Best Musical or Comedy Television Series.
The Bear, which released season 3 in June 2024, explored the food industry through the lens of a talented chef named Carmy (White), who returned to Chicago shortly after his older brother Mikey’s (Jon Bernthal) death to take over their family sandwich shop, The Beef. After closing the local spot, Carmy and the employees reinvented the restaurant into The Bear, which found success and failure in the most recent season.

Before season 3 even aired, reports surfaced about FX quietly renewing The Bear for more episodes. Multiple outlets reported the show filmed seasons 3 and 4 at the same time due to the busy schedules of cast members such as White, 33, Edebiri, 29, and Moss-Bachrach, 47.
Moss-Bachrach, who plays Richie, confirmed the news one month later when he discussed how the cast filmed an extended amount of episodes.
“When we went in to start season 3, we weren’t going in to make season 3 and 4,” he recalled during a July 2024 episode of the “Talk Easy With Sam Fragoso” podcast. “But it swelled and our episodes got quite big — over an hour.”
The extra footage allowed for the cast to start season 4 production immediately, adding, “Some of these episodes we’re splitting [and we] are not making it into two seasons and now we are going to be making 15 or 16 episodes instead of 10. But we’re gonna do it all at the same time.”
Filming out of order created some challenges for the cast. “I would come in at the beginning of the day and shoot a scene from late in season 4 and then shoot a scene from early season 4 and then shoot a scene late in season 3,” he explained. “Jeremy, Ayo and I are in a constant state of rereading through the seasons and trying to remember where your person is at.”
Moss-Bachrach concluded: “We shot about 18 episodes, but everything shifts. In the past, what was one episode on the page has been split into two. I just lose myself in the messiness and chaos of it. I like getting taken by a wave that’s bigger than you thought it was, [getting] tumbled around and spit out the other end.”
Ahead of the show’s victorious night at the Golden Globes, the chairman of FX Content and FX Productions John Landgraf was asked whether The Bear season 4 would be ready for a summer 2025 release.
“It will be. We finished most of it,” he told Deadline in September 2024. “We haven’t finished all of it, but we finished most of it, and it will be ready at the same time next year.”
Landgraf called it “accurate” when a follow-up question stated that he didn’t know whether there would be more seasons of the hit Hulu series.
