Reuben Fisherman

Reuben Maxwell Fisherman is a main character in the CFK 2 Go! sequel series Wild2ide. Revealed to be the cousin of previous WildSide character Gary Fisherman, Reuben makes his first appearance in Jobs Come and Go when he competes with Dean Ford for a product innovation position at the Ur Platform gaming company. He later gets hired for the position and Dean becomes his assistant, despite being five years his junior.
In the season two opener Does That Happen to Normal People?, Reuben is revealed to be homeless, so Dean allows him to share a bedroom with him as a result. His presence in the house also upgrades his character status as a main character from this season onwards, after previously being credited for a recurring character in the previous season.
In the episode No One Finds That Funny, it is revealed that Reuben is attracted to both females and males, which becomes evident during the musical number Uptown Girl. Despite this, he officially comes out as homosexual in Are You Gonna Light a Cigarette With That?, making him the first openly gay main character in the series.
Reuben is portrayed by Issac Ryan Brown.
==Trivia==
*His actor, Issac Ryan Brown, was previously well-known for portraying the character Booker Baxter (the son of Raven Baxter) in the That's So Raven spin-off series Raven's Home. Despite not physically appearing in the series, Gary Fisherman's actor Kyle Massey canonically portrays Booker's uncle in the series, given Kyle's appearance as Raven's brother Cory in That's So Raven. This fact is alluded to in Jobs Come and Go, where Reuben gets mistaken for being Gary's nephew.
*His age and birthday fluctuates throughout the show for no apparent reason. When he is first introduced in Jobs Come and Go (set in April 2023), he is introduced as a seventeen year old, implying that his birthday is between January-April 2006. In the season two episode Your Sister is a Nightmare (set January 2024), he appears to have been aged to eighteen, implying that his birthday is early January 2006. Furthermore, the season three episode All the Things I Would Do (set February 2025) is set on his twentieth birthday, demonstrating that his birthday has been shifted to February 2005. Not only was his birth month evidently shifted, but his birth year was shifted to make him one year older.
