Unless you've been living under a rock for the past year, you've probably heard all of the buzz about FX's hit series "The Bear." In April, a sneak peek of the highly-anticipated third season was leaked during a Disney shareholder meeting and then quickly removed. A trailer released recently is sure to have viewers excited for what's to come.

When does 'The Bear' season 3 come out?

"The Bear" has become one of the most popular shows on streaming—in January it took home six Emmys and three Golden Globes. Season 3 is bound to be a hit after last season's dramatic finale ended in heartbreak and left everyone itching to see what happens next. The upcoming season is set to hit Hulu on Thursday, June 27.

What is 'The Bear' season 3 about?

The new trailer gave a look into the drama that will unfold in the new season. Fans can expect a unique blend of comedy and drama that the first two seasons offered. Jeremy Allen White plays Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto, a chef who led a team that transformed a Chicago sandwich shop into his luxury restaurant, The Bear, with the help of Sydney Adamu, played by Ayo Edebiri. The new season will dive deeper into the crew's mission to put The Bear on the map for the Chicago food scene and finally bring Carmy's dream into reality.

The latest trailer, which has already racked up over 3 million views, shows Carmy's struggle to bring his vision for the restaurant to life. He presents "non-negotiables" to the staff that he says are standard in other high-end restaurants, but the crew doesn't take them seriously. As before, The Bear's staff bump heads, and Carmy and Sydney establish a formal partnership agreement to help push each other to do their best. Carmy also speaks on his breakup with Claire that crushed hearts during the season 2 finale.

"The Bear" has seen cameos from major names in Hollywood in the first two seasons like Jamie Lee Curtis and Sarah Paulson who played Carmy's mom and cousin, and Olivia Colman who played Chef Terry. We'll have to wait to see if more familiar faces pop up in season 3. "The Bear" has already been renewed for season 4.
