Actor Matthew Broderick Joins CYBERCHASE
By Mikki Monkolchayut. --Matthew Broderick is my childhood 80's hero from the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." He plays a high school wise guy determined to have a day off from school. He plays this likeable cool guy that everyone wants to be and we follow his fun filled adventures and mishaps of the day. I must have seen the movie a million times and I am thrilled to announce that he will be part of the CYBERCHASE team.
