'The Bear' returns for a third season

The cast and creators of the 10-time Emmy-winning FX series celebrated its third season on Tuesday at El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood.

The show follows award-winning chef Carmy, played by Jeremy Allen White, who inherits his late brother's sandwich shop in Chicago and tries to revitalise it.

This Hollywood premiere stood out to White compared with the previous ones.

"It's crazy, man," he said as adoring fans gathered outside on the sidewalk. "We did a premiere for season one and it was before anybody had seen our show. We had it, and it was lovely, but it wasn't at this scale. Certainly, people weren't out here calling our names and stuff. It's a beautiful thing, man.”

Season three of arrives on Hulu on Wednesday. this week called the show a "cultural phenomenon that sparked new interest in the people behind the scenes at restaurants."

Ayo Edebiri, who plays Carmy’s sous-chef, Sydney, feels that the show continues to evolve.

"In a major way, I think the show is also pushing itself. I think that's one of Chris' greatest qualities is he's never settled in a way,” she said, referring to series creator Christopher Storer.

“It's sort of the show mirroring life a bit,” she added.

For Edebiri, it is a “beautiful dance” to be part of Storer’s determination to push himself artistically.

One of the show's trademarks is its kitchen scenes featuring flustered chefs and a lot of shouting.

White, however, is used to the environment by now. "I don't mind it,” he said. “I think getting that energy out sometimes is really nice. It's like taking a melatonin or something, like you know, when you get it out, you can go home a little more relaxed."
