Walton Goggins dominated TV in 2025 with killer turns in The White Lotus Season 3 and the final season of Righteous Gemstones—but believe it or not, his most talked-about beat wasn’t a high-stakes showdown or snake-charming scene. It was one single, gloriously absurd word: “Teenjus.” Playing the hilariously overeager Baby Billy, Goggins leaned into the idea of a teenage Jesus so fully that the series’ meta-moment became an instant fan favorite.
After decades of badass roles in shows like The Shield and Justified (plus an Emmy nod for Fallout last year), Goggins arrived in 2025 at the peak of his game. Sure, he’s still slinking around exotic resorts and preaching with a megaphone, but it’s that off-the-wall “Teenjus” cameo that proves the veteran actor can still surprise—and steal every scene with just one perfect beat.
