Ramblings.
Yes Leftovers is awesome. I avoided it when it was first on then my wife and I ended up binging it a few years later. Didn't hurt that it ended in Australia.
Read a story today that said Season 5 is going to be hard to execute with all the work Jeremy Allen White, Ebon Moss Bachrach and Ayo Edibiri have booked for the future. Ebon especially is tied to so much Marvel work after Fantastic Four with the two Avengers films in production.
Well this post aged poorly as renewal for Season 5 was announced today though no dates were mentioned.
From the story. Didn't realize White was in upcoming Mandalorian movie:
The 2026 release window also indicates that the wait for season 5 may not be as long as previously expected. Parts of The Bear season 4 were filmed during season 3 production, which helped ensure that there would only be a one-year hiatus between seasons, but season 5 does not have this advantage.
From White starring in The Mandalorian & Grogu to Ebon Moss-Bachrach being in multiple Marvel Cinematic Universe films, the show's series regulars are booked and busy with other projects. Nevertheless, The Bear season 5 is currently expected to have a 2026 release.
