Bryan Cranston Reveals The 3 Things Making Him 'Mad As Hell' In The Donald Trump Era

Breaking Bad star Bryan Cranston is portraying anchorman Howard Beale in the Broadway stage adaption of the Academy Award-winning 1976 movie Network.

His characters most iconic line is: Im mad as hell and Im not gonna take this anymore! And, on Mondays broadcast of The Late Show, Cranston revealed the three things that are making him mad as hell in the era of President Donald Trump .

I think what makes me angry is people accepting duplicity and the diminishment of integrity and the lack of accountability that were finding now in our society, Cranston told host Stephen Colbert .

He did not mention Trump or his administration by name.

Cranston suggested there was a social non-acceptance when it came to the displaying of anger and proposed that people who see injustices like we do often these days dont want to be tolerant or acceptant of that, you want to say, No, this makes me angry, this is wrong and we have to stand up and do something about it.
