“White Collar” Is on Netflix! Here’s Where the Cast Is Now Nearly a Decade After the Series Finale

From Matt Bomer to Tiffani Thiessen and Hilarie Burton, here is where the ‘White Collar’ cast are now

White Collar premiered in 2009, starring Matt Bomer as con man Neal Caffrey, who makes his living by committing white-collar crimes. After getting caught by the FBI twice, though, he’s asked to help the agency track down other white-collar criminals.

The procedural drama ran for six seasons until 2014, and Bomer won a People’s Choice Award the following year. Since then, the popularity of White Collar has continued, thanks to audiences watching the series on streaming services.

In April 2024, the show was added to Netflix and reignited talks of a potential reboot.

“It’s technically in the works,” Bomer told Deadline. “These things are never quite as easy as you want them to be ... but it seems to be that they are moving in the right direction and it could be a very real thing within the next year or two.”

In the meantime, here's where the cast of White Collar are now and what they have been doing since the show ended.

Matt Bomer as Neal Caffrey

Matt Bomer plays Neal Caffrey, a white-collar thief and con man who eventually gets caught by the FBI. With only weeks left on his sentence, he escapes to reunite with his girlfriend but is captured again shortly after. This time, though, the government organization offered him a deal: Help them catch other criminals, and they’ll end his jail term early.

Before his Hollywood career, Bomer grew up in Texas outside of Houston and was childhood friends with actor Lee Pace. “I’ve known him since he was shorter than me when he was 14 and I was 15,” Bomer told GQ Hype in 2023. The two later became roommates in New York City as they worked toward becoming actors.

Bomer’s first break came when he landed a recurring role on Guiding Light (2002), and he later earned starring roles in the first season of Tru Calling (2003) and the horror movie The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (2006).

After White Collar concluded, Bomer won a Golden Globe for his role in the 2014 film adaptation of Larry Kramer’s The Normal Heart, which centered around the HIV/AIDS outbreak in the early '80s. That same year, he made a brief appearance in American Horror Story before returning in a larger capacity in 2015.

A few years later, Bomer began exploring voice acting with the superhero series Doom Patrol in 2019. Most recently, in 2023, he earned his second Golden Globe nomination for his role in Fellow Travelers, a miniseries about the Lavender Scare in the 1950s.

Off-screen, Bomer has been married to publicist Simon Halls since 2011. They have three sons: Kit, Henry and Walker. Despite their fame, Bomer and Halls try to ensure their kids have a normal upbringing.

“I don’t want anybody out on stage any time soon,” Bomer told PEOPLE. “When I was 8 years old, I asked my parents to get me head shots, and they were like, ‘What are you talking about?! Go outside and play!’ I’m so glad they did.”

Bomer’s next project will be starring in Outcome, a film about a disgraced Hollywood star who gets blackmailed with a video from his past. The movie is written and directed by Jonah Hill and Bomer will appear alongside Keanu Reeves and Cameron Diaz.

In 2024, Bomer also shared heartfelt words about him, telling PEOPLE, “He made every day more fun. He made every day more funny. He certainly added color to any room he was in, any conversation he was in, and he was a beautiful actor to get to work with.”

Garson is survived by his son Nathan, who set up a fund after his death to help support foster care agencies.

In 2017, Morales came out as queer in an essay for Amy Poehler’s Smart Girls online zine.

Next up, Morales will star in the animated film Thelma the Unicorn, alongside Will Forte and Zach Galifianakis.
