Abby Elliott teases if The Bear will continue after Season 5: “I could see endless stories”

The Bear is one of the top-performing shows of recent times. The drama series has consistently released new seasons every year since 2022 and earned praise from critics and the audience.

The show has now been renewed for a fifth season, and there has been some chatter about how it could be the last one. Actress Abby Elliott, who stars in the series as Natalie "Sugar" Berzatto Katinsky, has now talked about the future of the drama after Season 5.

In an interview with US Magazine, Elliott revealed that she loves working with the cast and does not want the series to end soon. She also teased that there are still multiple stories to be told, and hence, The Bear could continue past Season 5. She said:

“I don’t want it to end. I love everybody. I love this family, the characters, and also the real-life actors. We’re now very close. I could see endless stories. The show could go on if that was ahead of us. We all have fallen in love with the characters and want to see what they do and want to see how they continue living and how the restaurant continues.”

Abby Elliott talks about The Bear’s future after Season 5

Abby Elliott plays Natalie, Carmy’s sister, in The Bear. She is the co-owner and business manager of the restaurant. At the end of Season 4, Carmy decides to retire as a chef as he wants to explore his life outside the kitchen. During the interview, Elliott stated that Natalie will be supporting Carmy’s decision in Season 5 as he loves him, but at the same time, she will do what is best for the restaurant:

“If Carmy is going to go through with what he says he is, I think she will 100 percent support him. But I think she also genuinely loves the restaurant and wants it to succeed and wants everything to work because she loves the family that she has there.”

Further talking about her character in The Bear, Elliott said Natalie works at the restaurant not only because it has become her passion over time, but also because she wants to take care of Carmy:

“With Natalie, she really got into the restaurant because [it’s] what she now loves doing. She’s really good at her job there. But I think she got into it because she loves Carmy so much and just wanted to take care of him. At the end of the day, she always wants what’s best for him.”

The Bear premiered on FX in 2022. It tells the story of Carmy, a talented chef who has worked in Michelin-starred restaurants. When his older brother dies, he inherits the family beef shop and moves to Chicago to work there.
