Exclusive: MGM is repping sales on the new movie version of Long Day’s Journey Into Night, starring Jessica Lange, Ed Harris, Ben Foster and Colin Morgan.
As we reported Monday, filming has wrapped on the under-the-radar screen adaptation of Eugene O’Neill’s Pulitzer prize-winning play.
Well known British theater and opera director, Jonathan Kent, has made his feature directorial debut on the project, which filmed in Ireland. Above is a first image from the production.
The project sees double Academy Award and five-time Golden Globe winner Lange reprise her 2016 Tony-winning Broadway role, also directed by Kent.

After a lengthy delay due to the pandemic shutdown, the Broadway revival of Neil Simon’s Plaza Suite starring Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker has locked in a 2022 opening date. Plaza Suite will begin preview performances on Friday, February 25, 2022, with the official opening night set for Monday, March 28, 2022, at Hudson Theatre.
“We’re overjoyed to finally be able to welcome Broadway audiences to the Hudson Theatre to see Neil Simon’s celebration of New York, New Yorkers, and the wonderful ways they fall in love. We simply can’t wait,” said Broderick and Parker in a joint statement.
Plaza Suite played a sold-out pre-Broadway engagement at Boston’s Emerson Colonial Theatre from February 5, 2020 through Saturday, February 22, 2020. The production was ready to begin Broadway previews on March 13, 2020 when Governor Cuomo issued the shut-down mandate on Thursday, March 12, 2020 closing all Broadway theaters.

The Broadway revival of Neil Simon’s Plaza Suite, starring Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker and directed by John Benjamin Hickey, will postpone its opening more than a year due to the pandemic shutdown. The production, which had been set to begin previews the day after the March 12 shutdown was announced, will now begin performances at the Hudson Theatre on Friday, March 19, 2021.
An official opening date will be announced. The revival will run through Sunday, July 18, 2021.
A Fall 2020 date for Plaza Suite at the Hudson wasn’t a possibility, and not just because of the increasingly unlikely scenario of Broadway reopening before January 2021: The Hudson is currently booked for the Fall with the limited engagement return of David Byrne’s American Utopia.

Will Neil Patrick Harris claim his first Tony Award this Sunday for his gender-bending turn in the musical revival of Hedwig and the Angry Inch? Probably. Will fellow multiple-Emmy winner Bryan Cranston win for playing Lyndon B. Johnson in the biodrama All the Way? Count on it.

Neil Patrick Harris’ return to Broadway after a decade yielded him his first-ever Tony nomination for the celebrated revival of Hedwig and the Angry Inch, which netted an impressive eight nods. (Had it been eligible as a new musical, Hedwig probably would have easily tied Guide, as score and book would have been slam dunks). Trailing these shows with seven...
