The Bear is cooking hard for Season 3! The fan-favorite chaotic cooking series led by Jeremy Allen White and created by Christopher Storer has a penchant for surprising fans in the most unexpected ways and has garnered much acclaim for it. While the first season was contained mostly in the run-down kitchen, the second season brought in a variety of cameos from Jamie Lee Curtis to Bob Odenkirk that blew the audiences away.

Now it seems like one of the stars, Will Poulter, is returning to The Bear’s world as a fan video sees him on the set. In Season 2, episode ‘Honeydew,’ Poulter played Luca, a dessert chef and friend of Carmy, who trains Marcus (Lionel Boyce) while he is in Copenhagen. The cameo was highly appreciated by fans and seems like Marcus can do with some inspiration in life, given the somber note his story took in the final moments of the second season.
