HBO has just released a new featurette for its television adaptation of the Broadway play ALL THE WAY, starring Bryan Cranston, in which the makeup team turns the Tony-winning actor into famed President Lyndon B. Johnson - check it out below!

ALL THE WAY debuts SATURDAY, MAY 21 at 8:00 p.m.(ET/PT) on HBO.

Cranston reprises his Tony-winning role in ALL THE WAY, a riveting behind-the-scenes look at President Lyndon B. Johnson's tumultuous first year in office after the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Staking his presidency on what would be an historic, unprecedented Civil Rights Act, Johnson finds himself caught between the moral imperative of Dr. Martin LUTHER King, Jr. and the expectations of the southern Democratic Party leaders who brought Johnson to power.

Directed by Jay Roach from a screenplay by Robert Schenkkan, who adapted his Tony-winning play of the same name. The cast also stars Anthony Mackie, Melissa Leo, Bradley Whitford and Stephen Root, and includes Marque Richardson, Aisha Hinds, Todd Weeks, Mo McRae, Spencer Garrett and Frank Langella.
