But it\u2019s not easy to maintain that first flush,&#8221; Broderick said. &#8220;It\u2019s always a hard adjustment for child actors, young actors. People see the kid out of \u2018Leave It to Beaver\u2019 grown up and they don\u2019t buy it \u2013 they want to see little Beaver.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Though the movie made him a star at 24, Broderick admitted it wasn\u2019t always an easy guarantee of continued success.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/then-now-the-cast-of-ferris-buellers-day-off\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>THEN\/NOW: THE CAST OF &#8216;FERRIS BUELLER&#8217;S DAY\u00a0OFF\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;People associated me with younger roles, but I wanted them to come with me and get used to the fact that I\u2019m wrinkly. And it was hard,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The 90s were hard. Lots of ups and downs. But I always tried to keep at it, keep my heart in it. Hopefully that keeps you in the game.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The now 61-year-old actor went on to star in films like &#8220;Godzilla,&#8221; &#8220;The Cable Guy,&#8221; and &#8220;Election,&#8221; as well as voicing adult Simba in 1994\u2019s &#8220;The Lion King.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When asked what he views as his legacy after decades in the industry, Broderick had a simple answer.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What\u2019s my legacy? Well, I\u2019m <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/man-who-wrote-techno-tune-in-ferris-buellers-day-off-made-175-million-from-song\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ferris Bueller,<\/a> I suppose. I have to accept it. And I like it. I\u2019ve made my peace with it,&#8221; he told the outlet.<\/p>\n<p>But he added he\u2019s &#8220;not ready for people to start discussing my legacy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/sarah-jessica-parker-wants-three-kids-understand-value-money\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>SARAH JESSICA PARKER WANTS HER 3 KIDS TO UNDERSTAND THE \u2018VALUE\u2019 OF MONEY: \u2018THEY SHOULD PINE FOR THINGS\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;\u2026I have this Pollyanna streak that keeps me going. I always like to think there\u2019s something coming that\u2019s better,&#8221; Broderick said.<\/p>\n<p>Broderick is starring in the upcoming Netflix series about the Sackler family and the opiod crisis, &#8220;Painkiller,&#8221; premiering on August 10.<\/p>\n<p>He also has plans to appear in a West End production of the Neil Simon play &#8220;Plaza Suite,&#8221; with wife Sarah Jessica Parker, which they also appeared in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/sarah-jessica-parker-matthew-broderick-reunite-broadway-first-time-over-20-years\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">on Broadway last year.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters?cmpid=fnfirstnl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The couple have been married for 26 years and share three children, James Wilkie, 20, and twin daughters Tabitha and Marion, 13.<\/p>\n<p>Both Broderick and Parker remain relatively private about their family life, something the actor values.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, it\u2019s nothing we ever sat down and discussed. But I think it evolved and I think it\u2019s important,&#8221; Broderick said. &#8220;Once you start talking about your relationship and your feelings in public you\u2019re in trouble.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Also, we have children. I don\u2019t want to have my kids reading about our relationship. We try to keep some privacy, a circle around the family, so we can all have as normal a life as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/matthew-broderick-accepts-legacy-ferris-bueller-reveals-past-career-struggles\">Source &#8211;
