Matt King is an actor and comedian who is most notable for his role in Peep Show, a British comedy, where he plays the character Super Hans. He also appeared in the '"Brain" episode of Look Around You as a telephone engineer. In 2002, he co-wrote and starred in The Sofa of Time with Nick Frost.
He has appeared at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. One of his shows was disrupted by the fact that he had a devastating motorcycle injury immediately before the show started, but the show went on.
He is currently filming the movie Inkheart with Paul Bettany, Helen Mirren, Brendan Fraser, Andy Serkis and Jim Broadbent. He is also about to appear in the BBC production Jekyll as the computer expert Freeman and has completed work on the new series of Doctor Who in which he plays architect Peter Streete.
There is a picture of him (amongst others) on UK Indie band Good Shoes' 7" single "Photos On My Wall", but whether this was submitted by himself or by someone else (the pictures on the single were sent in by fans) is debateable.
