The Bear cast was seen filming the highly-anticipated third season of their critically acclaimed original series, which earned six Primetime Emmy Awards in January. 

After dominating this year’s awards season, Jeremy Allen was seen reuniting with his costars Ayo Edebiri and Ebon Moss-Bachrach outside a church in Chicago on Monday.

The 33-year-old Shameless actor, who portrays chef Carmen ‘Carmy’ Berzatto in the show, wore a black suit for what appeared to be a funeral. 

Moss-Bachrach, 46, was also dressed for a somber occasion as he stood outside and smoked cigarette.

Edebiri, best known for her role as chef Sydney Adamu in the series, for which she won a Golden Globe Award and Emmy, rocked a black and white polka-dot blouse and fitted trousers.

The characters were most likely attending the funeral of Marcus Brooks (Lionel Boyce)’s mom, who passed away during the season two finale. 

Last month, it was announced that the upcoming third season of The Bear will premiere this June. 

According to Deadline, the date was revealed by FX chairman John Landgraf during a presentation at the Television Critics Association’s winter 2023 press tour. 

The third season will also be released all at once for fans to binge-watch.

During his presentation, Landgraf admitted that The Bear was ‘a little anxiety inducing to watch’ and that particularly tense storylines were not ‘typically associated with hit television shows and Emmy awards.’ 

He then added that, prior to the release of the program’s second season, ‘We made a decision that we would drop the whole thing because for those of you who saw it, it has a really beautiful, very uplifting ending.’

The entertainment industry figure went on to state that, although the idea of releasing The Bear’s new episodes on a week-to-week basis was brought up, it was ultimately shot down.

‘When we came back for Season 2, we debated, since we knew now that we had a hit, can we milk it a little bit?…We then thought that’s a rotten thing to do, to change it up for the audience,’ he recalled. 

Landgraf added: ‘The way that Chris makes it, even though the episodes are separate, there’s a whole vibe to every season so we decided not to change what we had already set in motion.’

FX’s chairman concluded by stating that The Bear’s future seasons would also be released all at once.

‘I have no doubt that we’ll keep doing it because we did it in the past. Even if we could, I don’t think we’d change it now,’ he said.

The Bear was created by Christopher Storer and debuted on the Hulu streaming service in June of 2022.

The show is centered on an award-winning chef who inherits his older brother’s Chicago sandwich shop and is faced with various personal and professional struggles while trying to run the restaurant.

 The Bear was met with widespread critical and commercial success upon the release of its first season.

The second run of the program was released in June of last year, and it was met with similar levels of praise from both reviewers and fans.

The show as a whole currently holds a 99% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and it also boasts a 93% audience score.

The show’s cast and crew swept many of the categories during the recently-held Primetime Emmy Awards, which took place last month.
