Who is Jeremy Allen White?

Born on February 17, 1991, Jeremy Allen White is an actor from Brooklyn.

Shameless ran on Showtime from 2011 to 2021.

After playing the role of Lip for 10 years, White told GQ in an interview that he began to question his depth as an actor.

"There was a period where I stopped feeling like an actor and I started feeling like I was just here to do this show," he told the outlet.

"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."

White was relieved when the show ultimately came to an end, giving him room to reinvent himself.

"I love Shameless so much. I love everybody that was a part of it, and the experience was incredible," he explained.

"But I'm not sure if shows are meant to go that long."

Aside from the Showtime drama series, White is also known for his part in the 2018 thriller series, Homecoming, and several films including:

  • Afterschool
  • Twelve
  • After Everything
  • The Rental
