There was a lot of excitement when Hulu released Andrew McCarthy’s documentary "Brats," which was centered around the group of iconic ‘80s actors and important ‘80s actresses and how the “Brat Pack” nickname came to be. That excitement dwindled when fans realized the documentary wasn’t what they expected it to be about. Apparently, they’re not alone either, because Lea Thompson, who is featured in the doc, was also surprised that her one request when signing on to the project wasn’t honored.
Thompson, best known for her role in "Back to the Future," is considered by many fans of ‘80s movies to be a “Brat Pack” adjacent star. After all, she only worked with John Hughes once, and she was not in the St. Elmo’s Fire cast, which is widely considered a requirement for being an official member of the fictional club. Still, she managed to land a spot in McCarthy’s documentary, and so did her husband, Howard Deutch, who directed a handful of the iconic coming-of-age films, including "Pretty in Pink."
