Kenny Leon directing.  

Qs:

1. Guesses as to who will read which role?

2. What do you think the top ticket price will be?

Oh man. Hopefully they can find a way to stream this (for a cost) to raise money.

 Streaming is definitely  the way to make $$$. I know  so much peoples who would watch this ( esp if they did it in their Avengers Characters)

Any idea why they picked this play to do? Seems like a random choice, even though it's a classic...

I honestly wouldn't be surprised to see them mount a production (maybe not of Our Town) together for an extremely limited run over the next few years. Considering Johansson, Ruffalo, Jackson, Rudd, Cumberbatch, Mackie, are all acclaimed stage actors, much of the rest of the cast has done Broadway or the west end, and Evan's is making his Broadway debut later this year it honestly wouldn't surprise me if several came together for a production.I am honestly amazed we haven't seen Cumberbatch on the New York stage yet

All of them, Sirs Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan, Hugh Jackman- has any mainstream middlebrow franchise ever had such an unimpeachably brilliant cast?

 

(And what play could possibly bring them all together?)

Except that Stewart, McKellan, and Jackman aren't part of the Avengers, but rather the X-Men, which is a Fox franchise.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is on the verge of uniting due to a series of deals and trades between Disney and Sony/Fox.
