Born on this date in 1956, #BryanCranston got his first crack at an Oscar with his nomination for “Trumbo.”

Cranston reprised the role of Walter White for the Netflix movie sequel El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie. Aside from Breaking Bad, he is also well known for his role on other shows including Malcolm in the Middle, Sneaky Pete, and Seinfeld. He has also appeared in a variety of movies like Godzilla, The Upside, Power Rangers, and Trumbo. A clip of Cranston in character as Hal from Malcolm in the Middle could also be seen in a recent episode of the hit Disney+ series WandaVision.

Recently, Cranston impressed critics and fans once again with his latest performance on the Showtime limited series Your Honor. Developed by Peter Moffat, the series stars Cranston as a prominent New Orleans judge whose teenaged son accidentally kills the son of a local mafia kingpin. Hunter Doohan, Hope Davis, Sofia Black-D’Elia, Isaiah Whitlock Jr., Michael Stuhlbarg, and Carmen Ejogo also star. The series concluded its ten-episode run in February with a polarizing finale. However he’s choosing to celebrate the day, we wish Bryan Cranston a very happy 65th birthday!
