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 star got his first major job pretty much right out of high school, landing the role of Lip on Shameless. He played Lip 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 $250,000 per episode. Although given the extreme popularity of the show, it wouldn’t be shocking if he negotiated a higher rate going into season 3.

Anyway, quick personal message to JAW:

He 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 Already Doing Celebrity Endorsements

Everyone give Jeremy a warm welcome to the wonderful world of celebrity Instagram #ads. Just in time for buzz around season 2 of The Bear, Jeremy starred in Stella Artois’s new “Let’s Do Dinner” campaign, and yeah. Seems safe to assume this was a lucrative brand deal.

In conclusion: Jeremy Allen White is rich and getting richer. Let’s hope he gets a chance to renegotiate his contract with FX ahead of a potential third season of The Bear, because 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 third season, but considering The Bear’s popularity and my multiple 🕯️season 3 prayer circles 🕯️, it seems pretty inevitable.
