- Matheson plays Neil Fak in the critically acclaimed Hulu series.
"The Bear" scooping the award for outstanding original comedy series at the Emmys on Monday night came as little surprise to most viewers. After all, the second season has a 99% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
What was surprising, however, was the good-humored moment actor Ebon Moss-Bachrach planted a wet one on his costar, Matty Matheson, for longer than you can shout, "Cousin!"
Matheson plays Neil Fak, the hapless maintenance man who works for Carmy Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White) at The Original Beef of Chicagoland restaurant. In "The Bear" season two, Fak becomes one of the front-of-house staff, along with Richie Jerimovich (Moss-Bachrach).
Off-screen, Matheson is a real-life chef, who also serves as a producer on the series. Here's what you need to know about the actor.
