Bryan Cranston, the beloved actor known for his roles in "Breaking Bad" and "Malcolm in the Middle," was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame back in July 2013.

During the ceremony, his on-screen wife from "Malcolm in the Middle," Jane Kaczmarek, shared a touching story that left fans in awe.

Kaczmarek revealed that Cranston's fatherly role extended beyond the screen. He often took care of the young actors who played their children on the show, especially Erik Per Sullivan, who portrayed Dewey.

Cranston would invite Sullivan to spend weekends with his family, allowing Sullivan's mother to visit her husband in Boston.

Sullivan, who was around seven years old when he started on the show, would play with Cranston’s daughter, Taylor Dearden, during his weekends at the Cranston residence.

This gesture allowed Sullivan to experience a sense of normalcy and family life, something he missed while filming.

The story was shared on Reddit, where fans expressed their admiration for Cranston's kindness. Comments ranged from

"This is the kind of stuff I like to hear about celebrities" to "Bryan Cranston's role as Walter White becomes even more impressive once you realize he's the nicest guy in real life."
