If you watched theDisney Channelin the early ’00s, it’s a safe bet you already know Raviv Ullman.
He starred in the series alongside the likes ofAly MichalkaandAmy Bruckner.
Back then, he went by Ricky.
And he’s kept busy since saying goodbye to Phil Diffy.
What has he been up to other than becoming whatBuzzFeeddubbed a “slab of Grade-A beef?”
Well, the now 35-year-old also appeared onBuzzFeed’slist of now-grown Disney stars who turned into total dreamboats.
Oh, you mean what’s he doing besides being a babe?
Luckily, it turns out Ullman is the total package.
He continued acting after his Disney days.
By 2012, his resume included an off-Broadway production of “Russian Transport.”
The more adult casting came with different responsibilities.
“My career is [now] more focused on storytelling,” he told Broadway.com.
He added that the booking signified a new beginning.
However, unlike those who look back on childish roles with scorn, Ullman seemed to appreciate his roots.
After working off-Broadway, the actor found work in the opera world.
I was invited to come act in it," he toldForward.
The whole experience was new for him.
“Up until recently, I’d actually never been to an opera.
It’s like being on a roller-coaster ride; you feel it in your toes.”
And I said, ‘Ha ha, six years.’
He also keeps up to date with fans onInstagramandTwitter.
Oh yeah, he also launched a podcast called"The Study."
He launched the podcast, which dissects weekly Torah readings, during the pandemic.
It has featured guest appearances from the likes of “Broad City” starIlana Glazerand singer-songwriter Neshama Carlebach.
How did it come together?
“It was born out of doing Shabbat dinners at home.
In the pandemic, we kept it up and that was really helpful,” he told Forward.
He explained that he recognized the project wasn’t going to resonate with everyone.
Ullman handled praise for the shoot with class.
He also said he didn’t know why the series ended after two seasons.
Would he visit the future?
In 2019, he wanted to fast forward to the day Donald Trump left office.
Maybe it’s worth asking him where he’d like to go now that Trump is no longer president?
There have been some reunions with his former Disney alums, too.
