‘The Bear’ Season 3 Trailer: Emmy Winner Jeremy Allen White Returns in Ambitious Next Chapter
Insert your “yes, chef!” joke of choice here: Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series Jeremy Allen White is back as streaming’s favorite neurotic restaurateur in the Season 3 trailer for “The Bear.”
Created by Christopher Storer, the Emmy-winning series returns on June 27 with all 10 episodes available simultaneously to watch binge-style on Hulu. Events pick up where the show’s sophomore outing left off, with Richie (Emmy winner Ebon Moss-Bachrach) and Sydney (Emmy winner Ayo Edebiri) cracking further out of their once self-imposed shells while Carmy further retreats into the anxiety of his work and away from the grief of losing love interest Claire (Molly Gordon). Abby Elliott, Lionel Boyce, Liza Colón-Zayas, Matty Matheson, and Oliver Platt complete the cast.
The Bear, no longer a charming hole-in-the-wall eatery but a proper fine-dining establishment, is now a partnership between Sydney and Carmy: a fan-favorite relationship that stands to be tested even further as the pair picks up shared success and psychological steam. (Is that sarcasm in Syd’s voice? “No, no, no,” she jokes in the trailer. “Not sarcasm. Snark. Contempt even.”)
The official press release reads: “It’s a losing battle every single day in the restaurant business. Carmy pushes himself harder than ever, and demands excellence from his crew, who do their best to match his intensity… Our chefs have learned that every second counts, but this season we’ll find out if they have what it takes to make it to tomorrow.”
Already at a boiling point in the Season 2 finale (recall the head chef getting locked in a freezer), cousins Carmy and Richie also seem to be on the outs. A tense gesture involving a piñata — evocative of the lessons Richie learned while training as a maître d’ under guest star Olivia Colman last season — seem to see the stressed-out chef’s need for control bucking against the imperfect nature of making something as ephemeral as food special much to Richie’s frustration. Toss in his obvious disapproval for how Carmy regards his family and you’ve got all the ingredients for yet another emotional flambé from 2023’s Outstanding Comedy Series.
“The Bear” has won 10 Emmys to date (13 nominations), including Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for White, Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for Moss-Bachrach, and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for Edebiri.
“The Bear” Season 3 debuts June 27 on Hulu. Check out the trailer below.
