Jude Law is heading to Broadway! According to The New York Times, the actor, who's currently starring in a Donmar Warehouse production of Shakespeare's Hamlet, will bring the show to Broadway in September. His Hamlet will play a 12-week run at the Broadhurst Theater, with previews beginning Sept. 12, says the paper.
Reviews of Law's performance have been particularly positive. "[He] joins the modern pantheon of spellbinding sweet princes with a performance of rare vulnerability and emotional openness," Charles Spencer wrote in the Telegraph. Times of London critic Benedict Nightingale called the actor "robust and tough."
The 36-year-old actor will be joined by the rest of the British cast under the direction of Michael Grandage. It will be Law's first Broadway appearance since 1995, when he appeared in Indiscretions with Kathleen Turner, Cynthia Nixon, Roger Rees and Eileen Atkins.
