Someone wrote on social media when the casting for Breaking Bad was announced that Bryan Cranston was only a comedic actor and the show wouldn’t survive one season with him as the lead. Oh how wrong they were, Bryan’s performance was one of, if not the most, incredible performances I’ve seen in television and film. There’s not a single weak performance in the entire show either, everyone involved was phenomenal.

Bill Hader should be on this list! He’s proven time and time again that he’s more than a comedian! Barry, The Skeleton Twins, IT Chapter 2, Maggie’s Plan to name a few of his serious roles where he proves he’s more than just a SNL cast member! Why do you keep leaving him off lists

Hal to Walter has to be the biggest show of talent not being exclusive to one style of acting that I've seen from any actor. Bryan Cranston is the goat. Fun fact, he also plays Li in Kung Fu Panda 3 and Mitaly in Madagascar 3

Jason Bateman is another versatile actor, he does comedy roles like in Arrested Development and Horrible bosses to more serious roles like in Ozark and the gift. Same thing can also be said about Bob Odenkirk, and Bill Hader

Bryan Cranston, Robin Williams and Jim Carrey have broken the typecast. They not only played funny characters in their careers but have played dramatic roles and that speaks volumes about how much talent they have

20 examples and only one woman It really says a lot about the different ways leading men and women are viewed. Mary Tyler Moore in Ordinary People, Demi Moore in GI Jane, Charlize Theron in Monster.

Comedy is usually more difficult than drama because it depends more on perfect timing. It doesn't surprise me that comedians are good dramatic actors as well. Some are definitely better than others, though.
reply

Bryan Cranston is such a versatile actor, he played a bumbling, quirky dad, and a chemistry teacher turned meth dealer to perfection. Hal and Walt likely wouldn't like each other if they ever met.

Robin Williams had already done drama before 1 hr photo. Good morning Vietnam was drama apart from the studio scenes. Dead poets society was mostly drama apart from some class room scenes
reply

Every actor who has played the Joker, Caesar Romero, Jack Nicholson, Mark Hamill, Heath Ledger, Cameron Monaghan, Jared Leto and Joaquin Phoenix, has given a phenomenal performance.

Even though he didn’t do much dramatic roles, the one time when John Candy did the small appearance in JFK showed his acting skills and I’m sure that broke typecast for him
reply

Even though he became Walter White, I will always think of Bryan Cranston as Hal Wilkerson because the first thing I ever saw him in was Malcolm In The Middle
reply

Look up a film from the late 80's calmed The Bedroom Window. A murder mystery starring Steve Gutenberg, best remembered from the Police Academy series

This is about the 9th video you've done with this topic but worded slightly differently. Oh look Bryan Cranston is number 1. Again
