Brie Larson has officially joined The Bear in Season 4!
Her character remained a mystery for a while, but now we know that the 35-year-old The Marvels actress plays Francine Fak, sister to Neil and Teddy Fak.
She makes her first appearance in Episode 6 of the hit series, which centers around a wedding.
Tiff, played by Gillian Jacobs, is marrying Frank, played by Josh Hartnett.
Tiff used to be married to Richie, and she still sees his family as her own, resulting in a chaotic family reunion of sorts.
Brie‘s Francine shows up as part of the Fak family, and also addresses the question of what happened between Francine and Sugar (Abby Elliott).

Sugar is in a feud with Francine, but we never knew why. And the episode doesn’t entirely reveal the answer either.
At one point, one of the cousins jokes that the two women might have hooked up in the past. Pete, Sugar’s husband, even asks her directly if she was in love with Francine. Sugar pauses, laughs and blows raspberries before saying no, but there’s now some uncertainty hanging over the two characters.
Danielle Deadwyler also shows up in Season 4 as Chantel, cousin to Syd, while Jamie Lee Curtis returns as Donna. Bob Odenkirk returns as Uncle Lee. Sarah Paulson, Will Poulter, John Mulaney, Sarah Ramos are among the other guest stars who also make appearances.
