Watch the Trailer for Anthony Bourdain Movie, “Tony,” About Chef-Writer’s Younger Days, with “Holdovers” Star Dominic Sessa

May 5, 2026 9:24 am

Matt Johnson’s “Tony” looks good, like “The Bear” writ large.

It’s the story of chef-writer Anthony Bourdain’s younger days. No adult life, or suicide, or any bad stuff.

“Tony” is the “Michael” of Bourdain movies. Dominic Sessa, of “The Holdovers,” and Antonio Banderas have a great rapport.

Shocked to receive an A24 trailer upon release. A positive sign. This should whisk away with audiences!
