Actor Anthony Michael Hall Talks Past Films, Directors, Reacher, Roswell Delirium and more!

My guest today is legendary actor Anthony Michael Hall. 

He began acting in commercials at the age of seven, and his breakthrough role was as Rusty Griswold in National Lampoon's Vacation alongside Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo. Following the success of Vacation, he entered the defining period of his career, starring in three John Hughes classics: Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club and Weird Science. 

In the 1990s, he starred in Edward Scissorhands with Johnny Depp and portrayed Microsoft chairman Bill Gates in the television movie Pirates of Silicon Valley. 

In the early 2000s, he focused on television work, including an 81-episode run on Stephen King's The Dead Zone, and played the rold of Mike Engel in The Dark Knight. And now you can see him in Season 3 of Reacher.
