Ebon Moss-Bachrach has a message for fans who often shout ‘Cousin!’ at him in public.
In a recent interview with The Guardian, Moss-Bachrach talked about how much the show’s success changed his life, but with a downside. He shared a story about being recognized by a Korean couple while he was on a mountain near Kyoto, Japan, and used this as an opportunity to send a message to the fans:
“I was on top of a little mountain outside Kyoto and a Korean couple came up to me and were saying how much they love the show. I get a lot of comments. People yell ‘Cousin!’ at me all day. Sometimes, you know, you’re just not having a great day. And it’s just like: I’m sorry, man, I don’t have much for you.”
The Third Season is On the Way

“‘The Bear,’ which wowed audiences in its first season only to achieve even greater heights in season two, has become a cultural phenomenon. We’re so proud to partner with Christopher Storer, Joanna Calo, Josh Senior, and the rest of the creative team, as well as the brilliant cast led by Jeremy Allen White, Ayo Edebiri, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach.
