Mountain Goat

Eccentric, self-styled oddball who thrives on his own strange path.

Matthew Gray Gubler has built his entire public identity around deliberate quirkiness — from his art, horror film directing, and illustrated books to his famously offbeat fashion sense and unconventional romantic persona. He has always operated outside Hollywood's mainstream lanes, carving out a niche as the charming weirdo who does things entirely his own way, whether painting macabre artwork or playing the beloved misfit Spencer Reid for fifteen years. His self-sufficient creative independence and proud eccentricity make the mountain-goat — the contrarian who thrives on unusual terrain no one else would attempt — a near-perfect fit.
