  Anthony Michael Hall

  Having grown up in movies, Hall is loved for his starring roles in teen classics, such as The Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles and Weird Science, although it may have been his role as Russ Griswold in National Lampoon’s Vacation, with Chevy Chase, that put him on the road to stardom.

   

  His characters have been varied over the years: living on the street in the critically-acclaimed Six Degrees of Separation; brilliant Microsoft® mogul Bill Gates in the multi-Emmy®-nominated TNT original movie The Pirates of Silicon Valley, with Noah Wyle playing rival Steve Jobs; an abusive bully in Edward Scissorhands; as well as a host of crazy characters during his two-year stint on Saturday Night Live where he was, and remains, the youngest cast member in the show's history.

   

  Most recently, Hall starred in HBO’s highly-acclaimed Billy Crystal helmer 61*, in which he plays legendary lefty pitcher and Hall of Famer Whitey Ford opposite Barry Pepper and Thomas Jane. He was also seen in Universal/Jersey Films' Caveman's Valentine starring opposite Samuel L. Jackson, Freddy Got Fingered for 20th Century Fox starring Tom Green and Hysteria: The Def Lepard Story for VH1. Hall also starred in the USA Network Original Movie Hitched, with Sheryl Lee.

   

  Hall is also committed to pursuing his other passion – music. He has released an album on RAM Records with his band, Hall of Mirrors, whose song ‘Serendipity” was a hit on MP3.com. One of his songs is also featured on the sound track for Freddy Got Fingered.

   

  Hall currently resides in Los Angeles.

  Chris Bruno

  Born in the small town of Milford, Connecticut, Bruno attended college in Vermont where he was an avid athlete. A member of the ski-team, he was competing nationally when he was sidelined by an injury. In his brief hiatus from sports, he auditioned for his first play and was cast as the lead in The Mandrake. Although he was initially pursuing a degree in Psychology, he now had a passionate interest in the arts. Bruno then transferred to the State University of New York at Stonybrook so that he could be closer to New York City and could play college baseball. He was involved in numerous college stage productions while at the same time established a number of school records, including pitching a fastball clocked at 90mph.

   

  Upon graduation, Bruno moved to New York, where within one year and several bartending jobs, he was offered a two-year contract on NBC's Another World. The experience proved to be priceless training and enabled him to continue doing plays off-Broadway. Soon, Bruno would be nominated for a Soap Opera Award as Outstanding Newcomer. He was then cast in the controversial storyline of Michael Delaney on ABC’s All My Children, which won an Emmy the year he joined the cast.

   

  After some time in New York, Bruno moved to Los Angeles, where he began performing standup comedy at The Improv and L.A. Cabaret. It was during that time that Bruno was seen by an assistant from one of the networks, which led to guest starring roles on Suddenly Susan, The Nanny, JAG, Jesse and a recurring role on Alan Ball's series Oh Grow Up. Bruno was also cast alongside his brother, Dylan, in Lorenzo Carcaterra's dark and gritty cop show, The Force.
