Obsessed with The Bear and immediately need to know exactly how much money Jeremy Allen White has in his bank account? Understandable. After all, it’s important to find out whether he can support your quiet-luxury-meets-Barbiecore lifestyle. Gather round friends, because we’re here to tell you that Jeremy Allen White has a total reported net worth of $8 million.


I repeat: $8 million, which, no, isn’t quite as much as some celebrities (Tom Cruise has a net worth of $600 million, just saying 😅) but is still a ton of money considering Jeremy Allen White only became a household name a couple years ago...unless your personal household consists of a ton of Shameless fans, in which case you’ve known about Jeremy for a minute.

So, how did he make all these millions? First up:

Jeremy Allen White Was on Shameless for a Full Decade

The celeb got his first major job pretty much right out of high school, landing the role of Lip on Shameless. He played the role for 10 years, which is a lot of time for an actor to commit to one part. As he put it to GQ, “There was a period where I stopped feeling like an actor and I started feeling like I was just here to do this show. It was an upsetting head space to be in. When it was going to end, I was questioning: Maybe I do just exist on this show. What else is there? Am I an actor? I was definitely having a lot of doubt when I was finishing Shameless.”

But it was also a steady paycheck! We don’t know exactly how much Jeremy Allen White got for playing Lip, but Emmy Rossum reportedly made $350,000 per episode after equal pay negotiations, just to give you an idea of how much Showtime was willing to spend on talent!

But What Is Jeremy Allen White’s The Bear Salary?

Short answer: truly no idea. Long answer: unverified websites report he makes somewhere around $350,000 per episode. In January 2024, sources told the Daily Mail that Jeremy and the rest of the cast received “substantial pay increases,” and reportedly, his pay jumped from $350,000 per episode to $750,000.

Anyway, quick personal message to JAW:

He’s Been In a Few Movies and Has a Ton of Upcoming Projects

Let’s see...there’s The Iron Claw (which costars an extremely beefy Zac Efron), You Can’t Win, and Fingernails for Apple TV+ (which costars Jessie Buckley, Riz Ahmed, and Annie Murphy). Jeremy’s pay for these projects isn’t publicly known, but coming off the success of The Bear *and* the fact he’s working with Apple “We Are Rich” TV+, gonna assume it’s not too shabby.

And He’s Doing Celebrity Endorsements

Everyone give Jeremy a warm welcome to the wonderful world of celebrity Instagram #ads...starting with his instantly iconic Calvin Klein campaign, because I am a woman of taste:

Btw, he’s since done another equally drool-worthy campaign with the brand. Ahem:

According to WWD, Jeremy’s first Calvin campaign raked in $12.7 million in media impact value for the brand in less than 48 hours since its launch. Translation: Jeremy’s influence brought in big bucks for everyone involved, and he no doubt did it again for this latest collab.

So, What Is Jeremy Allen White's Net Worth in 2024?

In conclusion: Jeremy Allen White is rich and getting richer. According to Celebrity Net Worth, the actor has a total net worth of $8 million.

Let’s hope he gets a chance to renegotiate his contract with FX ahead of The Bear season 4, because I’m pretty sure he could get $1 million per episode if he wanted it (pure thirsty speculation). Oh, and side note: FX has yet to announce said potential fourth season, but considering The Bear’s popularity and my multiple 🕯️prayer circles 🕯️, it seems pretty inevitable.
