HOBOKEN — Brief stints on binge-worthy shows like “House of Cards,” ‘The Americans,” and “Boardwalk Empire” has done little to bolster Matthew Lawler’s ego. But don’t mind if the Hoboken actor, who has been the Associate Artistic Director at the Mile Square Theatre since 2009, develops a bit of a chip on his shoulder after landing his first recurring role on Freeform’s (formerly ABC Family) new drama series, “The Family.”
Although you may have to click the rewind button, you’ve already seen Lawler as a bootlegger in a scene with Michael Shannon on “Boardwalk Empire” and as a news editor on “House of Cards” alongside Kim Dickens.
Lawler, who has been acting for 12 years, is now FBI Agent Gabe Clements, caught in the shambles of an emotionally complex narrative.
