The scene features perfectionist chef Carmy, played by Jeremy Allen White, under his usual pressure during the rocky opening night of his newly remodeled restaurant.
The clip was apparently recorded without permission during a presentation at a Disney shareholder meeting, posted on X (formerly Twitter) and subsequently picked up by the entertainment press.
“Today during the Walt Disney Company’s annual shareholders meeting, a clip from the upcoming third season of FX’s The bear was shown as part of the presentation,” FX said in a statement. “The clip was subsequently recorded and shared publicly without permission.” This clip is not authorized for use beyond the shareholders meeting and we ask you and/or your media not to publish or share it in any way. If it has already been published, we ask you to remove it immediately.” (For the record: THR didn’t post this clip, so we’re not in trouble or anything.)
The bear began filming the highly anticipated third season in February, and the series is expected to return to FX and Hulu in June. The show won 10 Emmys for its debut season, including Best Comedy Series, and has been picked up for a fourth season, which is expected to begin filming immediately after the third.
The bear The series stars Emmy winners White, Ayo Edebiri and Ebon Moss-Bachrach as restaurant workers at a trendy Chicago restaurant. The first two seasons stream on Hulu.
