Not that it was ever officially announced, but Roundabout's planned revival of Pinter's Old Times with Alan Rickman and Lindsay Duncan has been postponed due to scheduling issues, according to the NY Times.

In other Pinter news, a revival of The Homecoming, directed by Daniel Sullivan, is being planned for next year.

I wonder if it had anything to do with Alan Rickman and "Rachel Corrie".

I believe it's due to the fact that he and Duncan both have prior commitments at the moment.

Hey, the actors have to do what's good for them. That and I guess, they can afford to turn down a Broadway part. I'm sure they'll get someone else who's just as talented.
