Tony and Emmy Award winner Bryan Cranston just had a big birthday. He turned 60 in March and luckily for us, "MTV" (aka Jimmy Kimmel Live) was there to document the whole thing! Below, check out Cranston's "LION KING"-themed Super Sweet 60 celebration, featuring special appearances by "Breaking Bad" co-stars Aaron Paul, Bob Odenkirk and even a live performance of "The Thong Song" from Sisqo. It's Brion, uh, we mean Bryan, like you've never seen him before!

Bryan Cranston reprised his Tony-winning role in in ALL THE WAY, now airing exclusively on HBO. The film is a riveting behind-the-scenes look at President Lyndon B. Johnson's tumultuous first year in office after the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

Cranston made his Broadway debut in ALL THE WAY in 2014 and received a Drama Desk, Outer Critics Circle and Theater World Awards, as well as a Tony Award for his performance. He previously won three consecutive Emmy®Awards, a Golden Globe Award and three SCREEN ACTORS GUILD AWARDS for his portrayal of Walter White on "Breaking Bad"; he also won an Emmy® and a Producers Guild of America Award as a producer on the series. On the big screen, Cranston shared a Screen Actors Guild Award as part of the cast of the Oscar®-winning 2012 film "Argo," and starred in the hit "Godzilla." His latest film is Jay Roach's "Trumbo," in which he stars in the title role of Dalton Trumbo, the successful Hollywood screenwriter whose career came to an end when he was blacklisted in the 1940s McCarthy era for being a Communist. Cranston recently received an Oscar nomination for his role in the film.
