From the very first scenes of the second season of hit returning show The Bear, it’s made clear that we are heading in a new direction. In fact, actor Lionel Boyce, who returns as lovable pastry chef Marcus, goes as far to say that it’s a "completely different show" this time around.
Speaking to GamesRadar+ before the actors’ strike, the star explained the tonal shift: "I think Chris [Storer, creator] is extremely smart and had this idea of where to take the show, how each season would feel. And it’s not just for the sake of it, it all has purpose, we want to show you who these people are. The kitchen is intense but outside of it is life, so we needed it to feel like life."
