Jinkx was asked on Vulture’s Good One podcast (posted earlier today) who should play Mary next, and the names she listed were:
…honestly? Yes please to all of the above. They also suggested BD Wong as Abe.

possibly. but SNL is firing everyone prior to the start of their next season.

Jenn was back, Tony was still out last night."
Tony was out of both shows today.
I knew Jinkx had it in her (loved her in LITTLE SHOP and PIRATES!), but I didn’t know she was going to bring it like that.
I wish I had bought tickets to go a second time before prices went through the roof. She’s my favorite Mary thus far, even including Cole. Brava, Jinkx!
This entire new cast is fantastic, in fact. This is easily the best shape the show’s been in since the original cast. If they can manage to continually make such inspired casting choices, I wouldn’t be mad if this ran forever.
Casting news should be out later today. The next Mary Todd is not a former SNL cast member as recently speculated.
It’s Jane Krakowski!! That is STELLAR

I JUST HAD THE GAYEST HEART ATTACK
AND immediately bought more tickets
The casting director and producers needs a special Tony Award because the casting so far has been on point
This show is casting people who have their own VERY distinct line deliveries and senses of humor and it’s so smart. It guarantees a freshness about each new cast and guarantees that (at least so far) you know you’re getting something you haven’t seen yet. Just brilliant.
So who is Mary for the two weeks after Jinx? Is it Hannah or will Jinx extend ?
(ah never mind just saw the bww press release)
Tickets are also now on sale through July 5. Gotta think this is now an open-ended run at this point.
Hannah Solow will play Mary from September 30 to October 12.

They’re doing the Operation Mincemeat route of “EXTENDED X TIMES!!!”. They are not going to close when they continue to print money and cause massive hysteria when a new Mary drops.
Also, THE PEOPLE DEMAND A HANNAH-BILL!!!

Brilliant casting. With them extending through July now, they must have several others name interested.

It's interesting that they're bringing in new cast members now with every new Mary.
Can they jusr figure a way to live stream them all??
Sorry, everyone, for the false alarm. I heard it was Aidy Bryant, obviously, that didn't go through. Jane will be stellar
