2024 Emmys: Liza Colón-Zayas on “Cloud Nine” After Historic Win for ‘The Bear’
Jeremy Allen White knows The Bear‘s secret ingredient is his fellow castmates.
Which is why when Liza Colón-Zayas won her first Emmy Sept. 15 for her work as Tina on the series, he couldn’t have been happier.
“It was the best, man,” Jeremy told E! News at Disney’s after-party, reflecting on the moment Liza’s name was announced. “I was backstage and I heard she’d won and I got to run into the wings and I got to witness her by myself, which was a really beautiful moment.”
The 33-year-old—who also won his second Emmy for his role as Carmy on the FX series—continued, “She spoke so beautifully and she’s just one of the best actors that we have, and I’m just so glad that she’s being recognized on this level because she just deserves it so much.”
And while Liza noted in her speech she hadn’t been expecting the win—and thus hadn’t written anything down ahead of time—she still allowed herself to enjoy every moment of the evening.
