My Take
Matthew Lawrence is a child-and-teen-star of a very specific 1990s American flavor. I knew him first as the son in Mrs. Doubtfire and from Boy Meets World, and what I find charming is that his career was a genuine family affair: he starred in Brotherly Love alongside his real brothers Joey and Andrew. There's something authentic about that. He's branched into voice work and podcasting since, and the fact that he voiced a role in Kiki's Delivery Service gives him an unexpected connection for Japanese audiences. He feels less like a tabloid figure and more like a steady working actor.
