Will Ferrell Poses With Look Alike Teenage Son During Game

Will Ferrell attended the Los Angeles Lakers and New Orleans Pelicans game on Friday at the Crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles. The Elf actor was accompanied by his 17-year-old son, Mattias Ferrell, who looked like a copy of him as they posed side-by-side for photos.

Mattias wore a white T-shirt and jeans, while his dad sported a sweatshirt from his merch collection, checkered green pants, and a pair of silver sneakers. Will looked keen on the game as he sat by Mattias, who is the second of his three children with wife Viveca Paulin.

Will mentioned a decade ago that he signed up to coach then-eight-year-old Mattias’ soccer team with Viveca, whom he married in 2000. “My wife and I are coaching, together, our 8-year-old’s team…so, look out, AYSO Region 76. Here comes the Chargers!” he said.

Mattias has also appeared alongside his famous parents and brothers — Magnus and Axel — during celebrity-studded events like the European premiere of Barbie at the Cineworld Leicester Square in London last year. The family looked gorgeous as they seemed to match one another at the event per their color-coordinated outfits.

Raising teenage boys

During an interview with People magazine at the SXSW premiere of his 2015 movie Get Hard, Will admitted that raising boys “must be like running a prison.”

“What happens with three boys is you end up barking out orders like, ‘Upstairs now!’ ‘Brush teeth!’ ‘Lights out!’ There is so much chaos you can’t really take the time to articulate,” the SNL star explained.

While he is seen as the funny guy on screen, Will strikes a balance when it comes to his three boys— which makes him feel like a bad cop dad sometimes. “When I lose my temper, and I really become a dad, I often think, ‘Oh, if anyone was a fly on the wall, they’d be like, ‘Will Ferrell is not a funny father!’’’ he joked. In all of this, Will trusts that “as long as there’s enough love in a family, it’ll cushion any bumpy landing.”
