\n\tThere is a lot to unpack with the very busy Jeremy Allen White, and we cover it all in depth on this special edition of my Deadline video series, The Actor\u2019s Side. <\/p>\n
\n\tAs he is about to start shooting the fifth season<\/a> of The Bear, we talk about how long he wants to keep doing the show that has won him three Golden Globes \u2014 and is currently a nominee<\/a> again \u2014 three SAG Awards, two Critics Choice Awards and of course two Emmys for Lead Actor in a Comedy Series. It is a reasonable question because he spent a whopping 11 seasons playing Lip Gallagher on Shameless, which he joined when he was 18 and ended when he was 30 (!). Whether he has 11 seasons in him as Carmen Benzatto, he won\u2019t say, but White does tell me the most important thing is to keep the quality up, something The Bear has done consistently.<\/p>\n \n\tIn between shooting that show, he has also won great acclaim on the big screen playing real-life icons of different stripes including wrestler Kerry Von Erich, whose ultimately tragic story he portrayed in The Iron Claw, and now in a stunning leading role as Bruce Springsteen in Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere, for which he is also Golden Globe nominated as Lead Actor in a Motion Picture Drama (he is one of the rare stars who has two GG nominations this year). We talk about the challenge of playing such a well-known star when he is standing right behind the camera day after day watching you do it. He talks in detail about his relationship with The Boss \u2014 who has seen the film 13 times and counting \u2014 throughout the process.<\/p>\n \n\tWhite also talks about his own insecurity in moving from the long-running role in Shameless and knowing he had to do something to challenge himself, something he found just three months later when he shot the pilot for The Bear. There also was the question and the risk of doing his own singing \u2014 he never had done this before \u2014 as Springsteen and how it was accomplished.<\/p>\n \n\tRELATED: The Actor\u2019s Side: All Of Deadline\u2019s Awards Season Video Interviews<\/a><\/p>\n \n\tWe also get the 411 on his upcoming projects including playing Wall Street Journal reporter Jeff Horowitz in Aaron Sorkin\u2019s currently shooting continuation of The Social Network called The Social Reckoning<\/a>, which also stars Oscar winner Mikey Madison as a whistleblower on Facebook, and his Springsteen co-star Jeremy Strong as Mark Zuckerberg, though they haven\u2019t had any scenes together. He tells me he is excited to be joining the Star Wars universe<\/a> in a voice role as Rotta the Hutt in Star Wars: The Mandalorian & Grogu<\/a>, as well as starring opposite Elvis Oscar nominee Austin Butler<\/a> in the thriller Enemies<\/a>, an experience where the two stars traded stories about playing true rock immortals and how they compared.<\/p>\n \n\tFinally, he talks about the surreal experience of doing the Calvin Klein underwear ads and seeing his picture on billboards everywhere, a unique opportunity that oddly brought him closer to his kids when he was out of town for work.<\/p>\n
