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

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”
