Anthony Michael Hall

ANTHONY MICHAEL HALL LOOKS LIKE A GENTLEMAN AT THE POLO MATCH

When we think of Anthony Michael Hall we always chuckle over his Rusty Griswold character in National lampoon’s Vacation, or his nerdy character in Breakfast Club in the 80’s. But he’s put all that behind him and emerged as a Ralph Lauren clad polo aficionado with a pretty Russian girlfriend. He was photographed at Will Rogers Polo Field in LA with actress/model Lucia Oskerova. And he has a new movie coming out in November, Foxcatcher, that got raves at Cannes.

WILL THE NEW “VACATION” BE TWICE AS FUNNY – OR HALF AS FUNNY AS THE ORIGINAL?

Looks like Christina Applegate will slip into Beverly D’Angelo’s shoes in the reboot of the 1980s family comedy Vacation. Ed Helms of Bachelor Party fame is signed to play the Chevy Chase “Dad” role. The reboot will be updated in that the son Rusty (originated by Anthony Michael Hall) now grown up and married, will take his wife and kids on a vacation similar to the one he remembers with his family in the 80’s. Ed Helms will play the grown up Rusty and Christina will play his restless wife. The original Vacation was written by John Hughes and directed by Harold Ramis – it will be interesting to compare the two.
