But Nelson seemingly makes a cameo — though only over the phone — at the very end of the doc. Just before the credits roll on “Brats,” McCarthy, who wrote, directed and stars in the project, is standing on a dock and answers a phone call.“Hello?

Hollywood’s Brat Pack.”Reading it today, David Blum’s article about hanging out with a group of movie stars with the world — and many women — at their feet as they hit Hollywood clubs and sow their wild oats seems tame and fun.But for McCarthy, now 61, the “Brat Pack” label ghettoized and diminished the actors, who were part of a talented new generation of young stars heating up the box office with movies like “St. Elmo’s Fire” — considered the pre-eminent Brat Pack film — “The Breakfast Club,” “Taps,” “The Outsiders,” “Pretty in Pink,” “About Last Night,” “Sixteen Candles” and others.“Oh f–k,” was McCarthy’s first reaction to seeing the cover story, as he reveals in “BRATS,” a new documentary he wrote, directed and stars in.“I just thought that was terrible instantly.

Molly Ringwald, star of 1980s hit The Breakfast Club, has revealed she only rewatched the movie recently, and was jarred by some of the themes that were glossed over at the time.

The Breakfast Club actor Molly Ringwald has said the film hasn’t “aged well” in a new interview.The cult classic from director John Hughs turns 40 next year and in a new interview with The Times, Ringwald, who appeared in the film as character Claire alongside Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Judd Nelson and Ally Sheedy, said some elements of the film “haven’t aged well”.“I don’t enjoy watching myself on screen. I only rewatched The Breakfast Club, which came out in 1985, because [my daughter] Mathilda wanted to see it with me,” she said in the interview.“There is a lot that I really love about the movie but there are elements that haven’t aged well – like Judd Nelson’s character, John Bender, who essentially sexually harasses my character.”Bender and Claire share a kiss towards the end of the film, but Bender repeatedly asks Claire about her virginity as well as looking up her skirt at another moment.“I’m glad we’re able to look at that and say things are truly different now,” she added, talking about the scene in a post #MeToo context.Cast member Ally Sheedy has also spoken out about elements in the film before, saying that she “never liked” the scene where her character gets a makeover to make her more attractive.Speaking to The Independent in 2020, Sheedy said: “Listen, it was Hollywood in the Eighties.

Andrew McCarthy’s upcoming Hulu documentary about the ’80s-era Brat Pack, of which both Nelson and McCarthy were charter members.“It seems strange to have that subject matter be something for edited entertainment,” Nelson, 64, told Us Weekly while attending the Children Uniting Nations 24th Annual Academy Awards Celebration & Viewing Dinner on March 10 in Beverly Hills.“Also, like, [McCarthy’s] a nice guy,” he continued, “but I hadn’t seen him in 35 years.“And it’s like, I’m not going to [be] like, ‘Hey!’ No, dude.”It was announced in January that McCarthy, 61, was working on the Hulu documentary about the Brat Pack, so dubbed in a 1985 New Yorker magazine article after the cast appeared together in two movies, “The Breakfast Club” and “St. Elmo’s Fire.”The main Brat Pack members were McCarthy, Nelson, Demi Moore, Emilio Estevez, Rob Lowe, Mare Winningham, Molly Ringwald, Jon Cryer and Ally Sheedy.Fringe members, sometimes included in the group, were Timothy Hutton, Tom Cruise, Nicholas Cage and Sean Penn.McCarthy, Lowe, Moore, Cryer, Sheedy and Estevez, among others, will all be featured in the new project.The documentary will premiere later this year and will be written and directed by McCarthy, whose 2021 memoir was titled “Brat: An ’80s Story.”The group’s name was a play on Frank Sinatra’s early-’60s era Rat Pack, which included Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford, Dean Martin and Joey Bishop.Nelson confirmed to the outlet that there was a “request” for him to join McCarthy’s Brat Pack documentary, but that he “politely declined” the offer.

A 1985 New York Magazine article that first termed the phrase Brat Pack rocked the world of Andrew McCarthy and his co-stars of St. Elmo’s Fire — so much that each of the actors went years, even decades, without talking to each other. As McCarthy says, “actors want to be free of that baggage.”

Andrew McCarthy recalled his rise to stardom as one of the members of the Brat Pack. During the ‘80s, the actor was a reluctant member of the Brat Pack – which consisted of a group of young idols such as Molly Ringwald, Judd Nelson, Demi Moore and Rob Lowe – who dominated Hollywood. McCarthy, 60, reflected on how the term had a negative impact initially, but he learned to embrace it later in his career.

I mean, I’m very liberal, but she’s another level,” Ringwald told The Guardian.

Anthony Michael Hall, star of "Weird Science" and "Halloween Kills," turned 55 on Friday. Hall rose to fame as a member of the infamous Brat Pack, a group of young actors who frequently appeared in movies together throughout the 1980s, including "St.
