 Bryan Cranston is to play President Lyndon B. Johnson for a new HBO film. [Photo: hbo.com] Bryan Cranston has gone from Walter White to the White House. The 59-year-old acting veteran has once again transformed himself, this time to play President Lyndon B. Johnson. Cranston, best known for his meth-dealing White in Breaking Bad, had earlier played the 36th president in the tony-winning stage production "All The Way". The film has only just started shooting, with Melissa Leo playing First Lady Claudia Johnson, and Anthony Mackie playing Martin Luther King Jr. Director Jay Roach said the HBO film begins straight after the assassination of John F. Kennedy. It covers the amazing 11-month journey from when LBJ takes office after JFK's assassination, through Johnson's fight to pass the 1964 Civil Rights Act and his own presidential campaign. All the Way doesn't have a release date, but will be shown on HBO in 2016. |
