Jeremy Allen White has won his second consecutive Emmy Award for Best Actor in a Comedy Series for his role in FX’s The Bear.

At the 2024 Emmy Awards, Jeremy Allen White secured his second consecutive win for Best Actor in a Comedy Series, recognizing his outstanding portrayal of Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto in FX’s The Bear. White's performance as a high-end chef navigating the chaotic environment of his family’s sandwich shop has been widely praised by both fans and critics. His ability to capture the intense emotions and pressures of the restaurant world, while balancing humor and vulnerability, has been a major factor in the success of the series.

White’s portrayal of Carmy delivers a raw, heartfelt performance, offering viewers a glimpse into the complexities of family dynamics and passion in the high-stakes kitchen environment. Collider noted that White's win celebrates both his talent and the unique storytelling of The Bear, which straddles the line between comedy and drama.

The Best Actor in a Comedy category was highly competitive this year. Nominees included Matt Berry for his role in What We Do in the Shadows; Larry David for Curb Your Enthusiasm; Steve Martin and Martin Short for Only Murders in the Building; and D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai for Reservation Dogs. Each actor brought their unique style of humor, from Berry’s whimsical deadpan delivery to Woon-A-Tai’s heartfelt portrayal of teenage life.
