Molly Gordon and her The Bear co-star Jeremy Allen White have had Hulu fans speculating whether they’re dating in real life. Aside from their relationship, Molly has made a name for herself in the film business — and not just as an actress. Molly is a triple threat in the industry, and she’s been working her way up for years in movies and on TV!
News47.us has rounded up a handful of facts about Molly, below.
Molly joined the show in season 2 as Carmy’s girlfriend, Claire. As viewers recall, the couple broke up at the end of season 2 when Carmy got stuck in the walk-in and accidentally vented his feelings to Claire. They unfortunately didn’t reunite in season 3, but fans are anxiously awaiting season 4.
While speaking with Harper’s Bazaar in July 2023, Molly recalled how she landed her role.
“I worked with [The Bear co-showrunner] Chris [Storer] on Ramy like five years ago and dreamed that I could work with him again,” Molly said. “I texted him how incredible the show was, and I said I would die to be a part of it. I would play a napkin, I would play a cup, whatever. And he, I guess, had thought of me for this role. One of my favorite moments in my life was when he asked me to be a part of it.”
Although, at the time, she “didn’t even know what the character was or like anything about it,” Molly was excited to work with Jeremy.
“We were still editing [the film] Theater Camp, so I would fly once a week to Chicago for a couple days, and then fly back to finish the movie and would edit on my computer at night,” the I Am Sam actress said.
