Moss-Bachrach, who portrayed David Lieberman / Micro, Frank Castle's ally in the series, received widespread acclaim for this performance. Although he had been a respected character actor in the industry for many years, it was his role in the FX series "The Bear," which began in 2022, that propelled Ebon Moss-Bachrach to global recognition and marked a breakthrough in his career. The character of Richard "Richie" Jerimovich, whom he played in the series, is considered the peak of his career.

Following the significant success brought by "The Bear," Moss-Bachrach became one of Hollywood's most sought-after actors and took on the role of Ben Grimm / The Thing in Marvel Cinematic Universe's highly anticipated film "The Fantastic Four: First Steps."
