The hit musical Mamma Mia! is returning to Broadway this summer after a 10-year intermission.

The musical – with casting to be announced later – will begin previews at Broadway’s Winter Garden Theatre on August 2, with an opening night set for August 14. The limited engagement will run through February 1, 2026.

The musical originally ran on Broadway from October 2001 to September 2015.

Since then, productions of the musical have appeared around the world, including North American and international tours, London and Toronto engagements, among others.

Mamma Mia! features music & lyrics by Benny Andersson & Björn Ulvaeus of Abba, book by Catherine Johnson, and direction by Phyllida Lloyd.

Mamma Mia! is returning to Broadway.

The hit musical, which ran on Broadway from October 2001 to September 2015, will return to the Winter Garden Theatre this summer starting Aug. 2. An opening night celebration will be held Aug. 14. The limited engagement will play in New York through Feb. 1, 2026.

“When Mamma Mia! opened on Broadway in 2001, the show had already launched productions in London and Toronto and played a sold-out North American tour. Despite the glowing reception we received in those markets, nothing could have prepared us for the outpouring of love and acclaim (and dancing in the aisles!) that overwhelmed us when we arrived in New York at the magnificent Winter Garden Theatre,” creator and producer Judy Craymer said.

“Last year, Mamma Mia! celebrated 25 successful years in the West End, and it’s truly fantastic to bring the original production back to its Broadway home after 24 years.

The Awards season catch up doesn't just begin and end with 2024 movie releases. With the 97th Academy Awards on the horizon, it is time to revisit old winners, and really consider if they deserved that victory. Conversations have emerged on social media recently about which award the academy is most commonly "wrong" about. Unfortunately for fans, the general consensus was that they usually stumble when it comes to one of the most important awards of the night.

Those who don't keep up with the Academy Awards may think that the Best Supporting Actor/Actress award is just a stepping stone to greatness, but that couldn't be further from the truth. Just last year, Robert Downey Jr. tore through the awards season with his portrayal of Lewis Strauss in Oppenheimer,...

When Arjun Rampal Shared His Reasons For Exiting Rang De Basanti ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Arjun Rampal is an Indian actor and model who works in the Hindi film industry. He is popular due to his versatility, good looks, and strong performances in Bollywood. He has played many characters on the screen, including one of the iconic villains in Bollywood Om, Shanti Om. He was also an antagonist in Ra One. The actor was slated to share the screen with Aamir Khan in Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s Rang de Basanti. However, things did not work out eventually, and he stepped out of the film. Rampal once shared the reasons in an episode of Karan Johar’s talk show, Koffee with Karan. Keep scrolling for the deets.

For the unversed, Arjun started as a top model in the late 90s before transitioning to films. His great looks and towering personality made him a heartthrob.

George Clooney’s op-ed urging Joe Biden to drop out of the 2024 presidential election was considered a major turning point in the beleaguered former president’s campaign.

Now the veteran actor is explaining why he thought Donald Trump won instead of Biden’s top-of-the-ballot replacement, Vice President Kamala Harris.

His explanation reflects a common refrain among Democratic supporters since November: It wasn’t the policies that were unpopular, it was the messaging that was ineffective.

“The Biden administration was terrible at explaining that we’re a world economy, where we were actually doing better than all the other G7 countries,” Clooney told The New York Times in a profile published online late Thursday. “They were bad at telling the story because their messenger was not working at his best, to say the least.”

Gallup polling months before the election however, showed that issues like immigration, crime, homelessness and inflation were...

George Clooney is sharing his thoughts on Joe Biden’s administration, months after thanking the former president for being “selfless” in stepping down from the 2024 presidential campaign. In a new interview with the New York Times, the actor commented on the Biden team’s issues ahead of Trump’s election.

“The Biden administration was terrible at explaining that we’re a world economy, where we were actually doing better than all the other G7 countries,” Clooney told the publication. “They were bad at telling the story because their messenger was not working at his best,...

The presidential election isn't what George Clooney was hoping for, but don't expect the Academy Award-winning actor to get too riled up about it. During an appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert to promote the Broadway adaptation of his critically acclaimed film Good Night, and Good Luck, Clooney spoke about Donald Trump's election victory. As many will recall, Clooney was a vocal supporter of former Vice President Kamala Harris.

Although Trump's presidency is not what Clooney wanted, the actor and filmmaker stood behind the democratic process, asking host Stephen Colbert:

"What am I supposed to do? You know, storm the f**king Capitol?"

Clooney was referring to the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol, where approximately 2,000 to 2,500 rioters entered the Capitol building; some participated in looting, vandalism, and assault on Capitol police and journalists. Since commencing his second term, Trump has pardoned about 1,500 rioters.

Clooney noted that, as a longtime Democrat,...

George Clooney, who was instrumental to Joe Biden stepping down during the presidential election, has taken a common sense approach to Donald Trump’s victory. The actor appeared on The Late Show to discuss his new Broadway play Good Night, and Good Luck, an adaptation of his 2005 film about journalist Edward R. Murrow.

Host Stephen Colbert asked Clooney, who will embody Murrow on stage, “Why do you think it’s a good idea to bring back a play right now about a man in journalism who is standing up against both corporate and political interests?...

Late-night TV will look a little more normal this week. That's because The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is back with brand new episodes beginning Monday, February 17,

Last week, Stephen Colbert and his team took the week off. It meant there was a void in late-night TV as the genre's top host didn't get his chance to speak on some of the week's biggest stories.

But that all changes tonight. Colbert is back and The Late Show wll be brand-new for Monday night. And the timing couldn't be better.

The rest of late-night TV is off on Monday night to observe the Presidents Day holiday. And with the exception of The Late Show and After Midnight, late-night TV plans to go dark for the rest of the week.

That means no Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, or Seth Meyers to break down the news or bring Hollywood's biggest names to late-night TV.

Production company Seaview has acquired the Off-Broadway Tony Kiser Theatre.

The 296-seat theater in midtown had previously housed productions from the nonprofit theater company Second Stage Theater, which had staged a number of productions there, including the pre-Broadway run of Dear Evan Hansen, but gave up its lease at the end of 2024. Under the leadership of Seaview, the theater will be rebranded into a commercial Off-Broadway theater under the name Studio Seaview.

Seaview has produced a number of Off-Broadway hits including Hold Onto Me Darling, starring Adam Driver, Danny and the Deep Blue Sea, starring Aubrey Plaza, and the immersive Sweeney Todd. The production company is also a prolific producer on Broadway and is represented this season by Once Upon a Mattress, with Sutton Foster, Romeo + Juliet with Kit Connor and Rachel Zegler, John Mulaney’s All In: Comedy About Love, Good Night, and Good Luck with George Clooney...

Exclusive: Bond Group Entertainment, Linden Productions, 51 Entertainment and Seaview have acquired rights to Eliza Kennedy’s Lucky Night ahead of its anticipated March 25, 2025 sale date from Crown Publishing Group. Kennedy will adopt the novel as an original play.

Lucky Night is centered on Nick Holloway and Jenny Parrish, who will finally spend their first night together after maintaining an ongoing six-year affair. Expectations are running high for this brief reprieve from ordinary life, where they both need a good bout of ravishing sex and witty conversation. But of course, that’s not what they get. As they barely get settled in a new luxury Manhattan hotel, a smoke alarm goes off. The reality of their situation becomes apparent, and all their secrets, evasions and regrets come spilling out. Stripped of their defenses, Nick and Jenny are forced to be honest — with each other and themselves— about what they want,...

Did Batman & Robin teach George Clooney an important lesson? ( Photo Credit – Wikimedia )

Yes, the infamous 1997 superhero flick that tanked both critically and commercially wasn’t just a low point for fans but also for George Clooney himself. And yet, the Caped Crusader’s stumble became the ultimate turning point. Clooney didn’t just reflect on the flop—he flipped the script on his career.

“It’s really easy to pick: Batman & Robin. That’s not a joke,” he admitted. “Up until that moment, I was an actor only concerned with finding work. After the failure of that film creatively, I understood that I needed to take control of the films I made, not just the role.”

What followed was nothing short of a Hollywood masterclass. Clooney traded bat-nipples for brilliance, delivering knockout performances in Out of Sight, Three Kings, and O Brother, Where Art Thou?. These weren’t...

Bridgit Mendler once led the cast of Good Luck Charlie and has had a lucrative post-Disney Channel career, with a hint of narrative irony. The beloved family sitcom holds its own against the best Disney Channel original TV shows, depicting Mendler's Teddy Duncan and her family following the unexpected birth of their fourth child. The hook of the series is that Teddy embarks on a project of recording a video diary of advice for her baby sister Charlie (Mia Talerico), with the help of their brothers Gabe (Bradley Steven Perry) and Pj (Jason Dolley).

A recent reunion among some of the Good Luck Charlie cast on Twitch streamer Kai Cenat's "Mafiathon 2" event did not include Mendler, despite her prominence in the series (via People). Meanwhile, other actors who once starred in Good Luck Charlie's contemporary TV shows have only been getting bigger, including the likes of Zendaya and Zac Efron.

After years and years of delivering epic performances in multiple masterpieces spread across numerous genres in a professional acting affair that started back in the late 1970s, George Clooney is finally all set to make his splash in the Broadway world as well. For one, after the television and film sets, it’s finally time now for the stage to experience his expertise.

For about more than four decades, the now-63-year-old Academy Award winner had been busy showcasing his immaculate acting chops in both blockbuster and independent films, earning numerous accolades for the same. That said, jumping into the world where he would be performing in stage adaptations is a significant milestone in his star-studded career.

Maxtime Pictures’ “Her Story,” a comedy-drama film told from a largely female perspective, topped the mainland China box office for the second consecutive weekend. Disney’s “Moana 2” debuted in second place.

Data from consultancy firm Artisan Gateway showed “Her Story” improving its previous weekend’s showing by earning RMB140.9 million ($19.8 million) between Friday and Sunday. The film now has a cumulative total of $54.6 million in the Middle Kingdom.

“Her Story” is directed by Shao Yihui (2021’s “B For Busy”). Its fast-paced story focuses on two women – one a recently unemployed single mom, the other a new neighbor who is more troubled than she appears – who become friends. Together they face up to various relationship challenges, including an abusive ex-husband and new romantic possibilities.

“Moana 2” earned $6.6 million in second place. With a worldwide $300 million weekend, according to Comscore, “Moana 2” was the highest grossing film in the world. This...

Before she retired from acting to build the company Space, Bridgit Mendler played Teddy Duncan on the Disney Channel series Good Luck Charlie. During her time on the series, Mendler fell for her co-star Shane Harper, who played Spencer Walsh. In the series, Mendler’s Teddy and Harper’s Spencer are dating from the first season, despite Spencer’s huge red flags.

Both the reel and real-life partnerships ended badly for the two. Coincidentally, there was a darker story behind how Mendler and Harper’s story ended, just like in the series. Mendler went on to tie the knot with Griffin Cleverly, who also became her business partner.

Screen veteran Earl Holliman, who won a Golden Globe Award for starring in the 1956 movie The Rainmaker, has passed away. He was 96 years old.

Holliman reportedly died at his Studio City home on Monday while in hospice care. His partner, Craig Curtis, announced his death, per Variety. Referring to Holliman's role in the very first episode of Rod Serling's The Twilight Zone in 1959, Curtis recounted how Serling had told Holliman in a letter, "your performance was outstanding, full of dimension, shading and a fantastic believability. In short, Holliman, youre one hell of an actor!

Holliman was the lead in the debut episode of The Twilight Zone, titled "Where Is Everybody?." He also had a major role as Sergeant Bill Crowely on the crop drama series Police Woman, which aired from 1974 to 1978. Holliman had recurring roles on the TV shows Hotel de Paree, Wide Country, The Thorn Birds, P.S. I Luv U,...

September 5 director Tim Fehlbaum is opening up about why the now-Oscar contender was the next story he wanted to tell.

“It was the conversation that we — the producers, the writer and I — had with Geoffrey Mason, the real Geoffrey Mason, the character played by John Magaro,” Fehlbaum told The Hollywood Reporter at a special screening on the Paramount lot.

The film, which counts Sean Penn as one of its producers, chronicles the ABC Sports team at the 1972 Munich Olympics as they pivoted from sports reporting to live coverage of the Israeli athletes taken hostage in the Olympic Village. Peter Sarsgaard stars as legendary ABC executive Roone Arledge, while Magaro plays Mason, a young producer for the network’s Olympic coverage.

On November 4, 2005, George Clooney brought the black and white television news drama Good Night, and Good Luck to theaters in wide release. The film, which grossed $54 million globally, went on to be nominated for six Oscars at the 78th Academy Awards, including for best picture. The Hollywood Reporter’s original review is below:

George Clooney’s deeply felt docudrama Good Night, and Good Luck provides a snapshot of the moment in history in which a major American television personality named Edward R. Murrow took on the malevolent power of a muckraking U.S. senator named Joseph McCarthy and won.

Shot in black and white in a brisk “you are there” 90 minutes, the film, which screened in competition, lovingly re-creates the studios and backrooms of 1950s New York journalism at the CBS television network, where the men wore white shirts and dark suits, the women fetched the coffee and the morning...

George Clooney’s Broadway debut in Good Night, and Good Luck will begin performances March 12, 2025, at the Winter Garden Theatre, with an opening date of April 3.

The Winter Garden venue will be available as of January, with the recently-announced closing of the Back the the Future musical.

Clooney announced his Broadway project last May. He’ll star at Edward R. Murrow in the stage adaptation of his 2005 Oscar-nominated film.

The stage play is co-written by Clooney and Grant Heslov, based on their screenplay for the film. David Cromer (The Band’s Visit) will direct. Producing will be Seaview, Sue Wagner, John Johnson, Jean Doumanian and Robert Fox.

When the production was announced in May, Clooney said, “I am honored, after all these years, to be coming back to the stage and especially, to Broadway, the art form and the venue that every actor aspires to.”...

George Clooney’s Good Night, and Good Luck will open on Broadway in April.

The play, which Clooney wrote with Grant Heslov, will begin previews at the Winter Garden Theatre March 12, 2025, with an opening night set for April 3. Clooney will also make his Broadway debut in Good Night, and Good Luck in the role of journalist Edward R. Murrow.

The stage play is based on the 2005 film written by Clooney and Heslov and follows Murrow’s clash with U.S. Sen. Joseph McCarthy as Murrow pushes to continue reporting on McCarthy’s anti-communist efforts. David Cromer, who won a Tony Award for his direction of The Band’s Visit, will direct the production.

Clooney directed the film and also played Fred W. Friendly, co-producer of Murrow’s television program, while David Strathairn played Murrow. The movie was nominated for six Academy Awards, including best picture.

Venom: The Last Dance star Juno Temple is offering up some interesting details about her new film with legendary director Gore Verbinski. While promoting the final installment of the Venom franchise, in which she reprises her role as Dr. Payne, Temple dished on her upcoming film with Verbinski. The Oscar-winning director is set to make his long-awaited return to the big screen with Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die, his first film in eight years.

Known for 2002's The Ring, Disney's first three Pirates of the Caribbean films, and Rango, Verbinski has a singular style and method of filmmaking. The auteur reportedly plans out projects but then allows the film to evolve on set, increasing the potential for creativity and delightful accidents. His films Rango and The Lone Ranger are strange, but in a delightfully weird way, like Edward Scissorhands.

George Clooney and his love for pranks have become the stuff of Hollywood legend. But when it involves the bromantic saga of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, it only gets better.

Rumor has it, Clooney’s prank struck a nerve, exposing a hidden truth about Cruise’s real feelings toward his co-star. Maybe Cruise wasn’t just dodging too much Pitt on-screen all these years. Either way, this prank might’ve peeled back the curtain on one of Hollywood’s most frenemy dynamics.

He's proven himself to be an impressive performer with his work in movies such as The Descendants, The Ides of March, Michael Clayton, and Up in the Air. He's also directed a fair number of films, most notably the stellar Good Night, and Good Luck, which he is bringing to the stage for his Broadway debut. This has led Clooney to interact with a wide range of actors and directors, and even reunite with them; Jon Watts' crime drama Wolfs will see him re-team with Brad Pitt. But there's one director that Clooney has sworn off working with, due to the fact that a confrontation between him and said director turned physical. That director? None other than David O. Russell, who directed Clooney in 1999's Three Kings.

Over the years, the MCU has hired some of the most talented actors Hollywood has to offer. Taking their pick from all corners of the industry, they have featured actors with all kinds of specialties, becoming versatile in every definition of the word. Dramatic actors have put on suits of armor, and comedians have become saviors of the species.

Clooney's latest directorial effort "The Boys in the Boat" has a 97% Rotten Tomatoes audience score but only 57% critic score. The disparity between critic and audience reviews reflects a trend in Clooney's directorial career of high audience scores and mixed critical reception. Despite the divided reviews, audiences praise the film for its true story, emotional moments, and strong performances.

George Clooney's latest directorial effort The Boys in the Boat has received an outstanding Rotten Tomatoes score of 97%. The celebrated Oscar-winning actor, best known for his iconic leading roles as Danny Ocean in the Ocean's trilogy (2001 - 2007) and Matt King in The Descendants (2011), is also an accomplished director. Clooney made his feature directorial debut with 2002's Confessions of a Dangerous Mind which he starred in alongside Drew Barrymore, Julia Roberts, and Sam Rockwell. Since then, he has directed a total of nine feature films, including 2023's The Boys in the Boat.

At first, I was shocked by the news that Participant Media was dying. Such an appealing company. Smart. Mindful. Vibrant. Forward-thinking. The producer of intelligent films like Spotlight and Green Book, with a distinctly progressive message.

How could this be?

Then it finally hit me. Whatever else may have happened—announcing the shutdown, proprietor Jeff Skoll cited “revolutionary” changes in the entertainment business—Participant went under, I believe, because most of high-end Hollywood jumped into the company’s basically sound but modestly sized boat. The purpose-film niche was swamped.

It’s almost hard to remember that 20 years ago, when Participant was founded, the notion of a self-consciously message-oriented, activist film company was actually novel.

But, cinematically speaking, it was a much different world in 2004. The top movie that year was Shrek 2—not much message there. Culturally, the big story was a religious film, The Passion of the Christ. That hasn’t happened since.

George Clooney and Amal Clooney, in their roles as co-founders of the Clooney Foundation for Justice, spoke about their work “waging justice” at the Skoll World Forum in Oxford, England on Friday.

“It’s nice to be in a room with people that get shit done,” the Hollywood star said early on during the appearance.

The Clooney Foundation for Justice, whose mission is to provide free legal support and advocacy to victims of genocide, unlawful imprisonment, and other human rights abuses, started 2024 with a new executive leadership team.

The foundation’s work is about “holding people’s feet to the fire,” the actor said, highlighting that “it’s a lot of failing and then finally succeeding.” He emphasized that the couple and their team have “the patience” for that.

“Finding ways, levers” to have an impact can often be indirect, George Clooney pointed out. “You can’t guilt really shitty...

This is not a groundbreaking or an especially hot take, but it is, sadly, an evergreen one that has only become more glaringly obvious in the age of fake news, partisan media, and Twitter (currently known as X). While the work of real journalists remains an undisputed and important pillar of our democracy, it can never have too many advocates in its corner to ring that bell. Unfortunately, scripted television isn’t often one of them.

Now, we’ll preface this by saying film has long been a champion of the hard work and sweeping change that can come from true, boots-on-the-ground journalism, with sterling examples like All the President’s Men, Spotlight, The Post, and Good Night, and Good Luck. But TV has far fewer worthy examples to its credit.

Don’t call it a career win because few would argue that Robert Downey, Jr. didn’t deliver one of his best performances ever as Lewis Strauss in Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer.” That immense talent was rewarded with his first Oscar in the Best Supporting Actor category at the 96th Academy Awards. One of the most popular actors of the past two decades and a three-time Oscar nominee overall, Downey, Jr. earned his first nomination 30 years ago for “Chaplin.”
