Christopher Masterson’s Scientology roots: How his famous family’s religion formed a key part in Danny’s rape case – as star makes career comeback with Malcolm In The Middle reboot
Published By admin
In the Noughties, brothers Christopher and Danny Masterson dominated the TV scene.
Christopher, 46, played Francis in Malcolm in the Middle, while Danny, 50, was famed for his role as Steven Hyde in That ’70s Show.
Despite being well-known in the industry, the brothers ended up retreating from the spotlight, both taking up careers as DJs and raising families.
While the brothers stepped away from the public eye, their half-siblings Alanna and Jordan began to make a name for themselves in Hollywood, landing roles in The Walking Dead and The 40-Year-Old Virgin respectively.
In 2020, the Masterson brothers were thrust back into the spotlight, however, when Danny was accused of raping three women at his Hollywood Hills home between 2001 and 2003.
He was ultimately sentenced to 30 years in jail for two counts of rape with force, violence or fear of bodily injury.
Now, as Danny’s brother Christopher brings the Masterson name back to prominence with the success of the Malcolm In The Middle reboot, the Daily Mail reveals how the family’s religion factored into the trial.
