I don’t think those guys fit this category, but this is the most annoying way to be obtuse about his answer
Pretty clear no one was going to talk about broadway
As obtuse as assuming that Ferris Bueller was Broderick's first film role? It wasn't even his first lead. The guy was doing a range of roles from Ladyhawke to Max Dugan Returns to WarGames, as well as his character roles before he landed the Ferris role. The guy had a Broadway and film career prior to Ferris.

Perhaps I wasn’t clear about the context of iconic or most known as roles.
Also, someone mentioned typecasting and Winkler is on record stating how they were trying to type cast him as Fonz.

Yes those would all be valid disputes to the topic and again I’m not agreeing that he fits the topic
Bringing up his broadway career doesn’t make sense tho, strange to use that as your point
no one on this board is going to be like “oh yeah I know that guy from his early broadway roles”
