Amanda Seyfried made it quite clear she won’t be on stage anytime soon, either.
But Juliette Lewis? Wow, that would be incredible casting!

I wanted Domingo for Frank because Lord knows the man has the range, theatrical chops, and now the heightened celebrity. Plus, the man looks DAMN good in his 50s and no doubt he in wearing a pair of fishnets would absolutely become some tenderqueer’s theatre awakening
Lewis seems too old for Janet, at least in a conventional cast, but she'd be a great Magenta.
I know the rumor has been Amber Grey as Riff Raff.

Regardless --- excited to see the full cast. Lots of potential (and regardless, I'm quite looking forward to seeing this production!)"
yeah definitely not happening but you have no idea how much I would pay to see Matt Berry on Broadway. I swear he could read the ingredients in a bottle of shampoo and it would be the most hilarious thing I’ve ever heard in my life.

Maybe dumb question but do we think this will be released 12am EST? I’m in central time zone and will essentially start refreshing at 11p my time.

Guessing their social media team already has something loaded and ready to go... maybe automated/pre-scheduled to post when the clock strikes 12 EST? (Barring any tech issues, last minute contract problems, desire to stretch out the anticip...)

I can't quite stay up as late like I did in my youth, but I'm so intrigued to see what they've got cooking I'll wait around to see. Very fun!
Brad is a 2025 Tony Nominee for Best Actor in a Musical........ not a major, mind-blowing casting decision, or much of a departure from type this actor has done in the past. But still they'll be GOOD!
Yes, Andrew Durand just posted an IG story that more or less confirms he’s Brad.
Following the Jarrod Emmick tradition of Brad with a strong jaw...
maybe Andrew can look good in a tank top ... ? Emmick did.
The anticipation (sorry) was getting to me. I couldn't wait to midnight and bought a ticket to the final preview.

Meh?
The rest of the cast completely outshines Luke Evans.
