If the name Jeremy Allen White doesn’t mean anything to you, you may have seen a few photos of him in Calvin Klein underwear last January on social media. A casting choice that is no coincidence for the one who is establishing himself as one of the new darlings of Hollywood.
Fans shocked by Jeremy Allen White’s brown eyes
After a revelation in the series Shamelessthe American actor is a rising star on both the small and big screens, as evidenced by his role, widely acclaimed by critics, in The Bearor even his recent film roles. But, you will have understood, he also attracts the eye thanks to his Apollo body, his pout and his blue eyes. And today, it is the latter that are the subject of debate on social networks!
Jeremy Allen White has been cast as iconic singer Bruce Springsteen in a biopic film titled Deliver Me from Nowhere and, for the occasion, the actor underwent a slight physical transformation. Goodbye crystal blue eyes and hello brown eyes! A logical choice since it corresponds to the color of the American rocker’s eyes. And if we are a long way from Sydney Sweeney’s metamorphosis for the feature film about boxer Christy Martin, this little detail seems not to be unanimously accepted by fans.
“I’m…speechless. Give him back his eyes”
“I’m…speechless. Give him his eyes back”, “Yuck!!! Give him those sky blue eyes again”, “I can’t believe it! Please give him his eyes back; It’s too shocking to digest at the moment”... Can we read in particular on the social network
If it is true that this “new” iris color somewhat modifies the expression of Jeremy Allen White, we must recognize that we are far from a shocking transformation and these remarks seem exaggerated to say the least.
In any case, without being his exact copy, the actor of The Bear seems to have perfectly imbued himself with the style and look of a young Bruce Springsteen. Jeremy Allen White is not his first time when it comes to playing a real person. In 2023, he played wrestler Kerry Von Erich for the film Iron Clawthis time sporting a hair transformation, very 80s.
You can find Jeremy Allen White, and his brown eyes, in Deliver Me from Nowherein the cinema, in 2025, while his blue eyes are present throughout the first three seasons of The Bear, available on the Disney+ streaming platform.
