Because of his ubiquity in '80s teen movies, some have associated Cusack with the so-called "Brat Pack," an unofficial clan of actors that included Molly Ringwald, Anthony Michael Hall, Emilio Estevez, Ally Sheedy, and Rob Lowe among others. John was originally the actor chosen to play John Bender in the 1985 movie The Breakfast Club. At the last minute, things changed and Judd Nelson ended up in the role.
