Daddy, and young Pistachio Disguisey in 2002's The Master of Disguise.

Friends, as Ross Geller's son, Ben; this role was his first role in
which he did not appear with his brother. As he and his brother grew
older, they began taking on more roles as separate characters but
often still worked on the same projects. Their first role as separate
characters in the same production was as kids in a MADtv sketch.
