Matthew Broderick – ‘Breaking Bad’
The role of Walter White, an emotionally broken chemistry teacher who finds out he is terminally ill with cancer, gave Bryan Cranston a second life in Hollywood. However, the career- turning job almost went to ’80s legend Matthew Broderick. He was given a copy of the script with the thought that if he liked it, the role would be his. Broderick was no doubt skeptical of AMC as a network and their history of unscripted programming. Thus, he decided to pass on the role to somebody else. And, the rest is history. Breaking Bad ran for 5 seasons, receiving numerous nominations and awards in the process.
