The critically-acclaimed show garnered 13 Emmy nominations for season one.
The series centres around Jeremy’s character Carmen ‘Carmy’ Berzatto, who is a chef that inherits his family’s sandwich shop.
Carmy, an award-winning chef, inherited the Italian beef sandwich shop in Chicago after his brother’s tragic passing.
He previously worked as a chef at a Michelin star restaurant but comes back home to Chicago to take over the shop, as well as the baggage that comes with it including debt – as he also deals with his own trauma.
The series was created by Christopher Storer, who also serves as an executive producer, along with Joanna Calo, Josh Senior, Hiro Murai, Nate Matteson and Matty Matheson.
‘The Bear, which wowed audiences in its first season only to achieve even greater heights in season two, has become a cultural phenomenon,’ Nick Grad, FX entertainment president, told The Hollywood Reporter in a statement.
