The Cast of Modern Family

Where is the cast of ‘Modern Family’ now?

“Success is one per cent inspiration, 98 per cent perspiration, and two per cent attention to detail.”

Modern Family is a beloved television series that ran for 11 seasons. The series followed the lives of the Pritchett-Dunphy family, who were all incredibly close despite their many differences.

Two years after the show ended, you may be wondering where are the cast members of Modern Family now? Here’s an update on what each one is doing.

Julie Bowen (Claire Dunphy)

Julie Bowen starred as Claire Dunphy in Modern Family, the overbearing wife and mother who was always trying to keep her family in line. Nonetheless, her good intentions and ability to own up to her mistakes made her a lovable character. Claire was always putting her family first and would go to great lengths to ensure their happiness.

Since Modern Family ended, Bowen has appeared on several TV shows, such as American Dad and Curb Your Enthusiasm. She also starred in a Netflix movie Hubie Halloween with Adam Sandler and other feature films. In an interview with People, Bowen said that Modern Family has given her autonomy over her career since she now has the choice to pursue a project or not. This worked well for the actress since she can spend more time with her kids.

Ty Burrell (Phil Dunphy)

Ty Burrell, who portrayed one of television’s most beloved dads in Phil Dunphy, has turned to voice acting in the animated TV series titled Duncanville. His character remains to be a lovable and goofy father to his wife, portrayed by Amy Poehler, and their three kids.

This isn’t Burrell’s first time doing voice acting, though. During his time in Modern Family, he voiced characters in films like The Super Hero Squad Show, The Penguins of Madagascar, and Finding Dory. Burrell has also made cameos in TV shows such as Law & Order, The West Wing, and Back to You.

Sarah Hyland (Haley Dunphy)

Sarah Hyland‘s character, Haley Dunphy, was the eldest child in the Dunphy family. She was always portrayed as being a bit ditzy and boy-crazy, yet it couldn’t be farther from the truth. After Modern Family ended, Hyland took some time off to focus on her mental health. She accomplished one major life milestone last August 2022 when she married bachelorette alum Wells Adams.

Hyland has also delved into voice acting. This time, though, she lent her voice to Bone, Marry, Bury, a podcast series about a girl who was having the worst year of her life.

Eric Stonestreet (Cameron Tucker)

Eric Stonestreet, who portrayed the flamboyant and lovable Cameron Tucker on Modern Family, has continued to enjoy success since the show ended. This time, he moved to reality TV, appearing in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? and America’s Got Talent. Stonestreet has also stated his interest in a Modern Family spin-off that would portray Cam’s relationship with Mitchell in more depth. While it would make fans of Modern Faimly excited, there haven’t been any signs that the spin-off is being considered.

Nolan Gould (Luke Dunphy)

Nolan Gould played the lovable and ditzy Luke Dunphy on Modern Family. Unlike his character, Gould has become more mature and conscious of his influence. As such, he has used his voice for political activism. He wrote an article titled “Nolan Gould’s Six Tips for Being a While Ally” for Subvrt Magazine when the Black Lives Matter movement took off. In it, he encouraged people to use their privilege for good.

Nonetheless, Gould is still doing some acting. He will star in a movie titled Camp, which is a coming-of-age story. He joins other films, namely The Nana Project and Miranda’s Victim, that are also in the works.

After Modern Family, he decided to enjoy his time off and spend more time with his family. O’Neill has also expressed that he wants to regroup and regain his energy now that he’s in his 70s. It’s easy to see why, as he has appeared in most sitcom episodes ever.
