Ben Mitchell is a fictional character from the BBC soap opera EastEnders, who has been played by six different actors since his introduction on 21 March 1996. Matthew Silver appeared as an infant Ben between 1996 and 1998, and Morgan Whittle played him as a toddler between 1999 and 2001. After a five-year absence from the series, Charlie Jones assumed the role of Ben in 2006. In 2010, the character was recast with Joshua Pascoe in the role, who made his first appearance on 13 December 2010. Pascoe quit the role in 2012 and Ben departed on 24 August 2012. Ben's return was announced in May 2014 with Harry Reid in the role; Ben returned on 22 September 2014. Reid was written out of the series in 2017 and Ben departed on 12 January 2018. Ben was reintroduced in 2019 with the role recast to Max Bowden. Ben returned on 1 April 2019. In December 2023, it was announced Bowden would exit the role. Ben departed the series on 28 March 2024, after being extradited to America for credit card fraud. In May 2025, it was reported Bowden would reprise the role for a "brief stint" for later in the year at the request of producer Ben Wadey. In August, it was announced Ben would return for the funeral of his father-in-law, Jonno Highway. Ben returned during the 6 October episode and departed in the 8 October episode.
