In the first glimpse of season 3 of The Bear, fans noticed a fun little detail that was easy to miss.
FX shared a sneak peek clip on Thursday, May 9, showing Carmy (played by Jeremy Allen White) getting ready to start his shift at The Bear restaurant. Additionally, a new photo of Carmy and Fak (Matty Matheson) from the upcoming season revealed a hidden surprise in the background that sharp-eyed viewers caught.
A fan shared excitement about the upcoming release of Season 3 of THE BEAR on Hulu, confirming a June 27th release date for all 10 episodes. Along with this announcement, FX also unveiled a first look image. The fan pointed out that the WIFI password at the restaurant in the image is "gofastboatsmojito," which holds special significance for fans. This password was originally mentioned during a scene in the season 2 premiere, where Richie had to give a code to turn off an alarm.
Another social media user noticed a phrase on the board behind Carmy that said, “Carmy f—king call Claire.” They jokingly commented, “He’s really going to put her off like he put off the fridge guy all season.”
In June 2022, Hulu premiered The Bear, a show that introduced viewers to The Beef restaurant. The restaurant was taken over by Carmy after the death of his older brother, Mikey (played by Jon Bernthal). Carmy made the decision to close the sandwich shop and open a new spot called The Bear.
With the help of Sydney (played by Ayo Edebiri) and other employees, they successfully pulled off a rush opening for the new restaurant's first dinner. However, things took a turn in the kitchen during the season 2 finale. As a result, most of the characters are now facing major changes in the upcoming third season of the show.
White, who is 33 years old, had given fans a sneak peek into what to expect in season 3. In an interview with Variety in December 2023, he mentioned that while the focus of the second season was on setting up the restaurant, there wasn't much cooking shown. However, he hinted that the upcoming season would bring back the bustling kitchen atmosphere from the first season.
As filming for season 3 began, some details started to surface as fans snapped photos of the cast. Matheson, aged 42, recently spoke about the enthusiasm of fans and how it impacts both the cast and crew.
"It can be a bit annoying sometimes when we're out in public," he told We in March. "But we love this city and people are just passing by while we're outside."
He added, "Maybe we should try to be a bit more discreet. Instead of all standing outside together, we could be a little more low-key. But we're all such good friends that it feels relaxed, to be honest."
The Bear returns to Hulu on June 27 with all episodes streaming on Hulu.
