George Clooney is set to make his Broadway acting debut next year in a stage adaptation of the 2005 movie 'Good Night, and Good Luck.' Clooney will take on the role of legendary TV journalist Edward R. Murrow in this production, which earned him directing and writing Oscar nominations.
The play, co-written by Clooney and Grant Heslov, will be directed by David Cromer and is scheduled to premiere on Broadway in spring 2025 at a Shubert Theatre to be announced. The 90-minute black-and-white film, which starred David Strathairn as Murrow, is known for its dialogue-heavy action that unfolds on a few sets.
