"Nobody’s fixed and everyone’s a work in progress. Every second counts... It really is the natural extension. "The thing we talk about a lot is that winning is losing, so even though they have this new opportunity, it still creates a lot of the same problems... Season 2 really is about the opportunity to start fresh and what does that mean. "What does Carmen and Sydney’s dream restaurant look like? But also at the same time, what is a dream restaurant in 2023 look like? I think that’s the thing they’re sort of battling with."Joanna Calo, who acts as a showrunner for The Bear and has both written for and directed episodes, was on The Hollywood Reporter's TV’s Top 5 podcast recently and was initially coy, saying 'very little' of the season two plot had been locked in. However, she did imply that there could be further dives into the pasts of the characters, which may well see Jon Bernthal show up again, as Mikey. We may also see Jimmy (Oliver Platt) surface. "We are drawn to the differences," said Calo. "That feels exciting to us. And again, hopefully unique. But also, there’s still stories about the past that needs to be told. So I think we’re hoping that there could be a little bit of both." For anyone looking to watch The Bear season two, it will once again be streamed on Disney+ and, for those in the United States, on Hulu.
