## Bio

Bryan Lee Cranston was born March 7, 1956, and spent years working steadily before Fox cast him as Hal, the goofy father in Malcolm in the Middle, a role that earned him Emmy nominations from 2000 to 2006. Then AMC took a chance on him as Walter White in Breaking Bad, and the part rewired his career - he won Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series four times between 2008 and 2014. He brought that intensity to Broadway, winning a Tony for playing Lyndon Johnson in All the Way in 2014, then a second Tony and a Laurence Olivier Award for Howard Beale in Network. His turn as blacklisted screenwriter Dalton Trumbo in 2015 landed him Oscar and BAFTA nominations, and he's kept working across film, voice roles, and series like Your Honor. The range stuck.
