Kids today might know Matthew Modine best for his role as Dr Brenner in Stranger Things but the star got his start back in the '80s with hits like Full Metal Jacket (1987). The actor has appeared in not one but two Christopher Nolan classics, The Dark Knight Rises and Oppenheimer, so we'd recommend digging back into his filmography.
Before you swap over to your TV screen, catch up on what the actor has been doing since he worked with Nicolas Cage and the successful lives of his wife and two kids below.
Caridad met while Matthew was working as a chef in New York
Matthew's long-term wife Caridad Rivera was born in the Lower East Side of Manhattan and is of Puerto Rican descent. She works as a makeup and wardrobe artist. Caridad and husband Matthew are still going strong four decades in.
The actor told Closer Weekly: "I'd been in a few relationships and wanted someone to be friends with. What's most important is to have a partner you share interests with, who challenges you, who is smarter than you." He added: "Then the physical side is a bonus. I hit the jackpot and got both!

Riverwater Partners, an investment management company, released its 'Small Cap Strategy' Q2 2026 investor letter. The letter can be downloaded here. The Small Cap Strategy underperformed the Russell 2000 in the second quarter as the benchmark experienced one of its strongest risk-on rallies in recent memory, although the strategy remained ahead year-to-date. The quarter was defined by accelerating AI investment, energy market disruptions, and renewed investor appetite for higher-beta stocks, creating headwinds for the firm's quality-focused approach and healthcare positioning. Despite this, stock selection contributed positively in energy, materials, and financials, while healthcare and consumer discretionary detracted due to the fund's disciplined avoidance of speculative businesses. Looking ahead, the firm remains cautiously optimistic, focusing on opportunities created by market dislocations, including AI infrastructure enablers, select consumer companies, healthcare innovators, and energy businesses trading below intrinsic value. The strategy continues to emphasize high-quality companies with strong management teams and attractive valuations, positioning the portfolio for a potential rotation away from speculative market leadership. In addition, please check the Strategy's top five holdings to know its best picks in 2026.
In its second-quarter 2026 investor letter, Riverwater Partners Small Cap Strategy highlighted The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ:MIDD). The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ:MIDD) is a leading player in the foodservice industry. On August 28, 2026, The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ:MIDD) closed at $112.75 per share. The one-month return of The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ:MIDD) was -17.98% and its shares gained 1.19% over the past 52 weeks. The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ:MIDD) has a market capitalization of $5.14 billion with a 52-week trading range between $89.14 - $148.55.
Riverwater Partners Small Cap Strategy stated the following regarding The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ:MIDD) in its Q2 2026 investor letter:
"In May we established a position in The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ:MIDD), the commercial foodservice and food processing equipment leader, funded by trims of Modine (MOD) and Kodiak Gas Services (KGS). Middleby delivered its strongest organic growth in two years, with commercial foodservice up nearly 10% and food processing up 25%, repurchased almost 5% of its shares outstanding in a single quarter, and set a July 6 date for the spin-off of its food processing business. We believe the separation will let the market properly value two focused businesses, and we wanted to own the company ahead of that catalyst."

New York Knicks fans flooded the streets of lower Manhattan on Thursday for the first championship parade in franchise history. And just as they did throughout the playoffs, many of the team's celebrity fans turned out to celebrate their 2026 NBA **** le — and the end of a 53-year championship drought.
Among the luminaries were Spike Lee, Ben Stiller, Christine Taylor, Timothée Chalamet, Tracy Morgan, Chris Rock, Mariska Hargitay, Edie Falco, Jon Stewart, Martha Stewart, Steve Schirripa, Matthew Modine, Teyana Taylor and Ja Rule.
Some took part in the parade itself as passengers on the dozens of floats that made their way along the Canyon of Heroes to City Hall.
Stiller, who is directing an HBO documentary series about the Knicks, was on one.
Chalamet — who like Stiller attended all five games of the NBA Finals, including three in San Antonio — led parade-goers in a "Let's Go Knicks" chant atop one of the double-decker buses.

"Modine Manufacturing Company (NYSE:MOD) provides mission critical thermal management solutions. It delivered strong performance driven by its growing exposure to data center cooling.

Management raised expectations during the quarter, indicating they now expect to significantly exceed their recently issued multi-year data center revenue targets. The announced sale of its Performance Technologies segment – serving lower-growth, lower-margin automotive and transportation markets – transforms the company into a more focused, higher-growth pure play on data centers and commercial heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC). This enhances its long-term growth profile."
