Fans of The Bear Season 3 are curious to know if Bradley Cooper makes a cameo appearance. This isn’t surprising as the latest season of the Jeremy Allen White-led show features appearances from multiple Hollywood celebrities like Josh Hartnett and John Cena.
So does Bradley Cooper make a cameo in The Bear Season 3? What is the connection between The Bear Season 3 and Cooper’s 2015 film Burnt? Here are your answers.
Does Bradley Cooper play a role in The Bear Season 3’s finale?
Yes, Bradley Cooper plays a cameo role via a photograph in The Bear Season 3’s finale.
He appears as his character Adam Jones from the 2015 movie Burnt in the photograph. The photograph showing Cooper’s Adam Jones is part of a collage of photographs put on display during Ever’s “funeral service” in The Bear Season 3 finale. The collage also includes photos of Carmy Berzattto and Will Poulter’s Luca, both of whom once worked at Ever. There are also photos of some prominent real-life chefs such as Grant Achatz, Christina Tosi, Will Guidara, and Kevin Boehm.
In Burnt, Bradley Cooper’s Adam Jones is depicted as a former chef of a renowned Parisian restaurant whose drug abuse and temperamental issues ruin his career. Jones eventually sought to reclaim his former glory by trying to reignite his career in London and obtain a third Michelin star.
Bradley Cooper’s Burnt photo in The Bear Season 3 explained
Presumably, the photo of Bradley Cooper from Burnt was likely put in by the creators as an easter egg. However, there is no confirmation regarding the same.
On the other hand, it may also likely be a tease of Burnt possibly being set in the same universe as The Bear. In addition, the photo also seemed to suggest that Cooper’s Adam Jones and Carmy Berzatto might have crossed paths at some point in the past.
However, there is currently no concrete evidence or confirmation that Burnt and The Bear are set in the same universe. It remains to be seen whether there will be any follow-up to the Bradley Cooper cameo and possible Burnt connection in The Bear Season 4.
According to Deadline, The Bear was secretly renewed for a fourth season after being picked up for a third season last fall. However, FX has yet to confirm the renewal.
The Bear Season 3 is now streaming on Hulu.
