Acting career

At the start of his career Mandel played a recurring guest star role on Everybody Hates Chris, playing Fisher, a friend of young Chris Rock.[10] He has also acted for the stage. In 2018 he played the lead role of Reuven Malter in the play The Chosen at the Fountain Theatre in Los Angeles, a portrayal that the Los Angeles Times called "gregarious and sincere, inquisitive and enthusiastic".[11]
