One day ahead of the premiere ofThe BearSeason 3, one of the show’s leading stars is telling all about a potential romance between himself and another main character. When speaking to Collider’sChristina Radishabout the upcoming season of the Emmy Award-winning series, Carmy Berzatto actorJeremy Allen Whiteaddressed the rumors of a potential romance between his character and Sydney Adamu (Ayo Edebiri). Carmy and Sydney have been working closely together — sometimes getting along and sometimes at each other’s throats — but the two have always had a charming back-and-forth. However, White did not mince words when asked if there was ever talk of exploring a romance between the two characters:
“Truly, it’s not even that we’re not on board with it. It was never, ever discussed by our writers, by Chris [Storer] or by me and Ayo. It’s something that happened entirely outside our experience and the show’s experience. It’s wild. It’s not something that we considered, and then we were like, ‘No, let’s not do that.’ It was just never happening or going to happen.”
While it doesn’t sound harsh in the sense that White or Edebiri weren’t staunchly against a Carmy and Sydney romance, it’s clear from top to bottom, writer’s room to set floor, there was never a plan to pursue a romantic relationship between the two inthe third season ofThe Bear. While the two do have solid chemistry as work colleagues, it’s important to remember that the writers and actors should have full creative control to see their vision for these characters through. Although some may be disappointed thatthere won’t be any spicy romance between Carmy and Sydney in Season 3, at least now the world knows it isn’t something that was ever going to happen; it’s always better to rip that band-aid off quickly.
