The Bear Season 5 Final Season Hits Hulu June 25 — Plus Captain America, Brokeback Mountain, and More

The Bear Is Ending — And Hulu Is Going All Out for June 2026

If you have been following FX’s critically acclaimed drama The Bear, now is the time to start preparing emotionally — because season 5, the final season, drops on Hulu on June 25, 2026. Jeremy Allen White returns as Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto for one last ride through the chaos of the kitchen, and Hulu is making sure the month leading up to the premiere is packed with content worth watching.

But The Bear is just the headline. Hulu’s June 2026 lineup is loaded with blockbuster movies, cult classics, and new series premieres. Here is everything you need to know.

The Bear Season 5: What to Expect from the Final Season

Created by Christopher Storer, The Bear has become one of the most talked-about shows on television. Over four seasons, Jeremy Allen White’s portrayal of a fine-dining chef trying to salvage his family’s Chicago sandwich shop has earned multiple Emmy Awards and a devoted fanbase. The supporting cast — including Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Richie, Ayo Edebiri as Sydney, and Lionel Boyce as Marcus — has turned what could have been a standard kitchen drama into something genuinely unforgettable.

Season 4 ended on a cliffhanger that left fans desperate for answers about the future of The Original Beef of Chicagoland (or whatever it’s called now — the restaurant has rebranded more times than we can count). The final season promises to bring closure to Carmy’s journey, though given the show’s track record, expect plenty of stress, shouting, and at least one episode that will make you cry in a walk-in freezer.

All episodes of The Bear Season 5 premiere on June 25, 2026, exclusively on Hulu via FX on Hulu.

Captain America Trilogy, Brokeback Mountain, and More Movies Arriving June 1

The Bear may be the main event, but June 1 brings a massive wave of movies to Hulu that is honestly impressive. Marvel fans can finally stream the entire Chris Evans Captain America trilogy — Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), The Winter Soldier (2014), and Civil War (2016) — all landing on the same day. It is the perfect time for a marathon before Brave New World continues the MCU storyline.

Other notable movies hitting Hulu on June 1 include:

• Brokeback Mountain (2005) — Ang Lee’s masterpiece with Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal arrives for anyone who somehow missed it.
• Gladiator (2000) — Russell Crowe at his absolute peak. "Are you not entertained?" Indeed.
• The Sandlot (1993) — The ultimate summer movie. You cannot have June without it.
• 12 Years a Slave (2013) — Steve McQueen’s Oscar-winning drama.
• Kung Fu Panda trilogy (2008-2016) — Perfect for family movie night.
• National Treasure (2004) and Book of Secrets (2007) — Nicolas Cage being Nicolas Cage.
• Death on the Nile (2022) — Kenneth Branagh’s Agatha Christie whodunit.

Throughout the rest of June, Hulu also adds It Ends With Us (June 9) starring Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, Kneecap (June 2), and the new series Alice & Steve (June 8).
