#4 – Dan Aykroyd

Daniel Edward “Dan” Aykroyd, the original cast member of Saturday Night Live, accepted that his autism became an inspiration for his hit movie, the Ghostbusters. The actor, also famous for the Blues Brothers show, says that he had an obsession with ghosts and law enforcement. He carries around a police badge with him and was obsessed with the ghost hunter, Hans Holzer. Obsession with a specific topic is a typical feature of autism and Aykroyd turned this obsession into one of his most successful movies.
