PAUL GLEASON

The Breakfast Club remains one of the most iconic films of all time. Needless to say, Paul Gleason’s performance as Principal Richard Vernon in the film was certainly memorable. He continued to star in other blockbusters, including Trading Places, Die Hard, and All My Children. Paul also appeared in several TV shows, including Dawson’s Creek and Drake & Josh. Did you know that he made a guest appearance on Friends, playing the role of Jack, Phoebe’s (Lisa Kudrow) friend in the show’s sixth season?

He also made the 2005 movie Abominable, a horror film in which he portrayed a town sheriff. However, his last film credit and the last movie he was seen was in The Book of Caleb. Additionally, Paul was into golf tournaments and participated in celebrity events each year. He passed away in 2006 at the age of 67 and is buried in Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery, Los Angeles, California.
