But will they be able to woo Ryan Gosling to the stage to reprise his role? What? We’re all thinking it.
Sports Buzz A bikeride down the entire length of Broadway, sped up to kind of freak you out. This was actually far less dangerous than it seems when sped up 2000 times.
Culture Buzz After going millions of dollars over budget, injuring scads of cast members, and firing Julie Taymor, the troubled and rejiggered Spider-Man musical officially debuted on Broadway. Is it a Bono-fied train wreck or a nerdy night of fun?
Here's Harry Potter getting freaky for the Broadway production of “How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying.” Looks like one of the “Thriller” zombies. Use our photo edit tool at the bottom of the page to thrust Dancing Radcliffe into a variety of inappropriate scenarios!
Two Australian student lovers were caught bangin' in a Sydney clock tower. They managed this sexxxy feat at 3:30pm in the afternoon, in front of a crowd! But still, not a single newspaper in the world can identify who they are (yet). Was it you?!
Will Ferrell as George Bush interviews Will Ferrell as George Bush. This might get confusing, but one thing's for certain…you'll see more Bush here than at a 1979 cheerleading competition.
Celebrity Buzz Jeremy Piven pulled out of Speed-The-Plow, a David Mamet play currently on Broadway. His excuse was a high mercury count. And he will not rest until you know that. Dude, it's cool. We were going to see Peggy Olson, anyway.
Music Buzz Mariah Carey is in talks to make a musical about her life. She wants Leona Lewis or Vanessa Hudgens (of High School Musical and nude photo fame) to star. Will they do the songs in chronological order, or will they start off with “Touch My Body” and then do flashbacks until the glorious “Always Be My Baby” tire-swinging finale? And holy crap, imagine the costumes. Broadway needs to survive long enough for this to happen.
Celebrity Buzz Katie Holmes’ Broadway debut in All My Sons draws mild reviews. She’s not as bad as Julia Roberts, but not as good as an actual stage actress.
Movie Buzz Producers say they’re working on bringing a musical version of the novel/movie to Broadway by 2010. This…actually has the potential to be brilliant. I’m certainly more likely to see this than “The Little Mermaid.”
Culture Buzz Producers likely inspired by the jaw-dropping profit of High School Musical are debuting in this new musical led by a cast comprised exclusively of teenagers. Written about a New York-bred kid whose family picks up and moves to Indiana, the bar mitzvah boy (yes, seriously) has to deal with adjusting to life in a brand new school. And with the website touting players based on stock characters like “gossip,” “jock,” “beauty,” and “wannabe,” parents in the audience can expect to be involuntarily overcome with memories of acne, bad fashion, and awkward dating rituals.
In an attempt to counter protesters attempting to smear their “religion,” Scientologists planted fans to support Katie Holmes outside the theater in which she’s performing on Broadway. How did poor Katie get stuck in such a ridiculous mess? Oh, right, by allegedly being hired as Tom Cruise’s “suitable wife.”
Culture Buzz Beau Willimon’s new play is making waves as both an off-Broadway debut and an upcoming film. The stage show (about a political press secretary) opens in New York in October with a cast that includes Chris Noth, Olivia Thirlby, and Isaiah Whitlock Jr. (aka that guy from The Wire). George Clooney is attached to direct the Hollywood version. We repeat: Beau Willimon. Get to know the name, the kid is going places!
