Early Life
Matvey Rasapinsky was born in Yobatav, Arbatskaya on April 27, 1979 to Ruma (b. 1948) and Anya Rasapinsky (b. 1954), being older by about thirty-seven minutes than his twin sister,, who also became an actress.

Rasapinsky attended Arbatskaya State University from elementary and high school, but refused to go to college to pursue his acting career.

Humble Beginnings (1988-93)
Rasapinsky first tried his hand on acting when he was casted for the role of Aleksei Alekseyevsky in the 1988 film Kids on the Block, as the film's director Ruma Vulvanov discovered him while performing at a play in Arbatskaya State University. Right after Kids on the Block was released on June 1988, Rasapinsky was immediately casted on a voice role in the 1988 animated film Superkids.

As a child actor, Rasapinsky's roles were stereotypical child roles, including younger personas of the main character, son of the main character, etc, as the films Busted (1990), Bullsh*t (1992), and Thief of the Month (1992). However, on the 1993 film Ilgamovsk, Rasapinsky played a much mature role, being a tenth grader who later resorted to drugs, and later, stealing and doing criminal work. This role gave way for his further success in the film industry.
