Anthony Michael Hall (born Michael Anthony Thomas Charles Hall; April 14, 1968) is an American actor, producer and comedian. After his film debut in Six Pack (1982) and a supporting role as Russell "Rusty" Griswold in National Lampoon's Vacation (1983), Hall had his breakout with starring roles in three John Hughes-directed films: Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club, and Weird Science. Mainstream media associated Hall with a group of young actors known as the "Brat Pack" due to his roles in those films. Hall diversified his roles to avoid becoming typecast as his geek persona, joining the cast of Saturday Night Live (1985–1986) and starring in films such as Out of Bounds (1986), Johnny Be Good (1988), and Edward Scissorhands (1990).
