Bryan Cranston Talks Jerry & Marge Go Large, John Carter, and Wes Anderson

This summer, Academy Award-nominees Bryan Cranston and Annette Bening portrayed real-life couple Jerry and Marge Semblee in David Frankel’s charming feature adaptation Jerry & Marge Go Large. In this feel-good movie that’s based on a true story, the married couple decides to take advantage of Jerry’s penchant for mathematics and puzzles to successfully hack the Michigan and Massachusetts Lotteries. During his interview with Collider’s Steve Weintraub, Cranston shares why he chose to do Jerry & Marge, his experience working with directors Wes Anderson and Andrew Stanton, and the importance of capturing the essence of nonfictional characters, while still taking some creative liberties. He also bemoans box office reports versus film critics’ “artistic impressions,” denies allegations that he is a huge baseball memorabilia collector, and discusses prepping mentally for difficult scenes. #bryancranston #JerryandMargeGoLarge #JohnCarter For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit
