Los Angeles, March 5 – Hollywood actress Jamie Lee Curtis is making bold claims about the hugely popular streaming show, "The Bear." The actress has stated that the show is coming to an end.
The Oscar-winning actress first sparked speculation about the show potentially ending in an Instagram post, and now she is reiterating her claim that the story of Carmy and his team will conclude with season 5, according to the "People" magazine.
"It's the end of the show," Curtis, 67, told Entertainment Tonight when asked about the post. "Everyone knows it's the end of the show."
While no one else from the cast has spoken about the show ending, Jamie Lee Curtis said she is "not breaking any news to anyone" as she claims that season 5 will be the last one.
"They've said it from the beginning. It's the end of the show, it's not me announcing any endings of anything."
According to "People," the actress has played Donna, Carmy's (Jeremy Allen White) and Sugar's (Abby Elliott) mother, since season 2 and has appeared on and off throughout. "It's a great show," she told Entertainment Tonight. "I just feel very lucky to have been asked to play Donna."
In her Instagram post last month, Curtis shared a photo with Elliott, 38, from the show's set as she said they "finished strong." Surrounded by an extraordinary crew and group of writers and producers and scene partners on the show that Chris Storer created, completing the story of this extraordinary family that we have all fallen in love with", she wrote. "Got to finish it out with my baby Berzatto bear."
The actress won an Emmy for her role in "The Bear" in 2024, and she said in her acceptance speech, "You know there's a saying, 'Hurt people, hurt people,' but I also think you can add to that and say, 'Helped people help people,’ and I think that’s the story of 'The Bear.'"
Her casting as Donna was a product of manifestation in some ways. She made her debut in season 2 in 2023.
