The Bear Season 4 completely justifies Will Poulter’s three consecutive appearances

The Bear, which premiered in 2022, is currently in its fourth season, and fans are absolutely loving the season so far. The show follows the journey of the young and talented fine-dining chef, Carmy, as he returns to Chicago to salvage his family’s sandwich shop, The Bear.

Popular British actor Will Poulter is one of the most beloved actors on the show. He has made a recurring guest appearance on the show as Chef Luca, another young and talented chef who is Carmy’s culinary peer. Poulter first appeared in The Bear as Chef Luca in Season 2. His appearance got such a positive response from fans that he reappeared twice in Season 3 — at the beginning and at the end of the season.

Now, with the shocking turn in Carmy’s story at the Season 4 finale, Luca’s appearance fits perfectly. The character may get featured more prominently next season.

Will Poulter has made four appearances in The Bear so far, and it all makes sense

In The Bear, Will Poulter plays Chef Luca, a bright and promising young chef and Carmy’s contemporary. While he keeps going in and out of Carmy’s restaurant, the show initially portrays him as a character based in Copenhagen. However, by the fourth season, it becomes slightly unbelievable that the character spends so much time in Chicago with Carmy and the crew at The Bear.

To explain his time in Chicago, the story shifts, and Luca joins The Bear as a stage, taking on a new challenge under intense pressure.

The storyline shows Luca and Carmy are driven by the same hunger to prove themselves as world-class chefs. To do so, if Luca has to play the role of a stage at The Bear, which essentially translates into a form of unpaid internship at a big restaurant, he is willing to do it. Despite his years of training and experience, he is ready to take up the challenge.

Another interesting spin comes at the season finale, where Carmy is set to leave the restaurant. Carmy’s decision opens the door for Luca to help shape The Bear’s future alongside Sydney, Richie, Marcus, and the team.
