- Jason Bateman. Jason Bateman’s self-righteous deadpan as Michael, the only person willing to take on the nitty-gritty details of managing his family’s finances after his father’s arrest, catapulted him into mainstream stardom after an earlier brush with stardom as a younger actor in shows like Little House on the Prairie, Silver Spoons and The Hogan Family, he won a Golden Globe for his role in Arrested Development and went on to become a regular of wide-release comedies, with starring appearances in Horrible Bosses, Paul, Identity Thief and Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium.
