Award Winning Teen Actor: Hire for Film, Print, Commercial, & Music!
Major Threat: Actor/Textile Waste Model/Pianist/Creator
Hi. I’m Matéo Ray, a 13-year-old actor, textile waste model, musician, and content creator. A quadruple talent threat!!!
I began my entertainment career at the age of 4-years, and have loved every moment of it. Whether I’m on a film set or walking a runway, I’m passionate about bringing stories to life and connecting with my audience.
When I’m not acting or modeling, you can find me creating fun videos on my YouTube channel, @DoughnutDaily,or enjoying downtime with friends, cracking jokes, and making my own short film clips, scripts, and my own music songs.
I’m honored to have received the Young Artist Academy (YAA) Award for Best Young Actor in a Short Film Performance in both 2022 and 2024, and now the 2024 (YEA) Young Entertainer Award —recognition I’m incredibly proud of.
I just completed filming the Universal Pictures film, 'One Night Only' from director, Will Gluck in NYC. I’m also a supporting actor, playing the grandson to TV star, Mike Farrell of M*A*S*H in the film, 'The Strawberry', and a role in a film with James Franco called, 'Foster'.
Recently, I have appeared on the TV network series, '9-1-1, Mayans M.C.', and Netflix's 'Magic for Humans' and John Mulaney's 'Everyone's in LA'. I’ve had supporting roles in the award-winning film, 'The Divisible', and the Amazon Prime film, '40: The Temptation of Christ'.
Thanks for getting to know me better! I hope you’ll become a fan and join me on my journey. Be sure to follow and subscribe to my pages, including my Instagram @mateoray_official, for my latest updates and behind-the-scenes fun!
