Actor Ben Savage, best known for his years-long performance of Corey Matthews on the hit ABC series "Boy Meets World," appears prepared to mount a challenge to California Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff for his House seat.

Federal Election Commission forms filed this week indicate Savage, a Democrat, is preparing to mount a run for California's 30th Congressional District, which Schiff has controlled since 2001. 

Schiff has not indicated any plans to retire from that seat, meaning the two could end up squaring off in a primary, though Schiff himself has indicated he is possibly considering a run for Senate. 

Savage previously ran unsuccessfully for a seat on the West Hollywood City Council in 2022.
