About this video
Before John Cusack became a cult movie icon with killer monologues and perfectly messy hair, he was just the middle kid in a creative crew of five — Ann, Joan, Bill and Susie. The Cusacks are basically Chicago’s most talented export after deep-dish pizza.
Ann — the eldest — was the original director of their home plays and always cast herself as the princess. Later, she starred in A League of Their Own and still sings blues with her own band. Queen energy? Absolutely.
Joan is the hilarious powerhouse with Oscar nominations and Emmy wins. From School of Rock to Shameless, she’s stolen every scene. John even admits that when they act together, it’s basically her show — and he’s just lucky to be there.
Bill took the theater route, co-founding a stage company with John and later directing in L.A. He’s the backstage wizard — less flashy, just as brilliant.
Susie, the youngest, appeared in Hero and High Fidelity. She may be lowkey, but she’s got that Cusack spark — and the chillest vibe of the bunch.
Their dad, Dick Cusack, was an Emmy-winning writer and the original comedian of the house. He filled their childhood with Monty Python, Mel Brooks, and lots of backyard home movies. No wonder they all ended up performing.
John and Joan have acted in 10 movies together, while Ann, Bill, and Susie have also popped up alongside him in cult classics like Con Air and Grosse Pointe Blank. Even their dad joined in a few films. It’s basically the indie version of the Marvel Cinematic Universe — but funnier.
