‘Breakfast Club’ cast reunites for first time in 40 years at C2E2 in Chicago

CHICAGO — Back in 1985, Director John Hughes used backdrops like Maine North and Glenbrook North high schools for his story of five friends who meet in detention hall in his cult movie classic, “The Breakfast Club.”

For the first time in 40 years, all five of ‘The Breakfast Club’ cast members, Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald, and Ally Sheedy, got together Saturday for a panel at the C2E2 Pop Culture Convention at Chicago’s McCormick Place.
