Bryan Cranston recently shared the key to his successful 34-year marriage with his wife, Robin Dearden. The 67-year-old actor, known for his role in Breaking Bad, emphasized the importance of marrying the right person. According to Cranston, there are five qualities one should look for in a partner, and once you find those, let go of the rest, as no one will be completely alike.

Cranston revealed that he and his wife, who met on the set of Airwolf in the 1980s and got married in 1989, have different interests. He highlighted the importance of accepting those differences, mentioning that he doesn’t enjoy shopping with his wife, and she doesn’t like the things he enjoys. The couple has a 30-year-old daughter named Taylor.

The actor also discussed his decision to take a break from acting in 2026. Cranston expressed his desire to slow down, have more life experiences, travel, and adjust the relationship he has with the industry. Spending more quality time with his wife was a significant factor in this decision, as he wants to level out the impact the industry has had on his marriage.

Cranston, who is currently focused on promoting his upcoming spy thriller, Argylle, talked about his enjoyment of playing the villain in the film. He praised the film’s director, Matthew Vaughn, for his audacious and bold approach to filmmaking. Cranston is excited about taking chances in his career and described Argylle as a big, broad, fun, and silly movie.

The movie features Bryce Dallas Howard as Elly Conway, a bestselling espionage novelist, and Sam Rockwell as a real-life spy. The story follows them as they race across the world to evade killers, blurring the line between Elly’s fictional world and reality.
