Let’s face it. Theatre has been the most successful place for stories about popular musicians. Alicia Keys’ “Hell’s Kitchen” is selling big on Broadway, as is “Mj.” “A Beautiful Noise,” about Neil Diamond ‘s professional and personal history, had a nice run there, and is touring the country after its run in Los Angeles. We’ve had “Tina,” “Jersey Boys,” The Temptations’ “Ain’t Too Proud,” Carole King’s “Beautiful” and others. A new musical is being tested now about Frank Sinatra. But the most exciting news arrives this spring, when recent Tony winner Jonathan Groff portrays Bobby Darin.

But movies about musical stars? A mixed bag. (including Kevin Spacey in a bad one about Bobby Darin) Documentaries have been the safest form to chronicle the life of famous musicians: Ones about David Crosby, Joan Baez, Springsteen, and Linda Ronstadt. And, of course, “Woodstock” and Martin Scorsese’s “Last Waltz.

The Broadway revival of Gypsy, starring legendary performer Audra McDonald, is officially open!

Broadway besties Lea Michele and Jonathan Groff were among the celebs who led the star-studded red carpet at opening night on Thursday (December 19) at the Majestic Theatre in New York City.

Lea and Jonathan met while working together on the 2006 Broadway show Spring Awakening and have been best friends ever since. For those who don’t know, Lea worked with Audra when she was a child, playing the little girl in the original production of Ragtime back in 1998.

Audra is currently starring alongside Danny Burstein and Joy Woods in the new production of Gypsy, which is playing at the newly reopened Majestic Theatre. The theatre has been dark since The Phantom of the Opera closed back in April 2023.

Gypsy is getting rave reviews and tickets are on sale now.

Let’s talk about the absolute heartbreaker that was 2024 for TV fans. You know that feeling when you’re completely invested in a show, planning your week around new episodes, and then boom – cancellation news hits your social media feed? Yeah, that happened way too many times this year.

Networks and streaming platforms have been wielding those cancellation notices like they’re going out of style. From swashbuckling comedies to mind-bending sci-fi adventures, some seriously amazing shows got the axe way too soon.

Let’s dive into the 15 cancellations that hit us the hardest. Grab your comfort snacks – you might need them for this one.

Frozen is one of Disney’s most beloved movies of all time, and the holiday season is the perfect time to revisit it.

However, no matter how often you watch the movie and it’s sequel, we bet that there’s so much you don’t know about them.

Believe it or not, the original blockbuster premiered in theaters more than 10 years ago. In honor of the special anniversary, Vanity Fair got the film’s stars including Idina Menzel, Kristen Bell, Josh Gad and Jonathan Groff together to look back on the start of the successful franchise.

The feature revealed a lot about how the final movie we know and love differed from the original that Disney set out to create. It featured different actresses reading for Elsa and Anna (the characters played by Idina and Kristen) and a very different plot.

We also learned that Frozen was not the...

CBS ordered a pilot for new multi-cam show Zarna, the network announced Tuesday.

The show will star stand-up comedian Zarna Garg as “a proud immigrant woman who’s been raising her American born kids on Indian values.” But, the logline continues, “now that they’re getting older, it’s time for her to focus on her own American dream.”

Garg also serves as writer and executive producer, with Darlene Hunt as writer, executive producer and showrunner. Mindy Kaling and Jessica Kumai Scott will also executive produce via Kaling International, along with Kevin Hart, Bryan Smiley and Mike Stein of Hartbeat. Warner Bros. Television is the studio.

Garg released an Amazon comedy special, One in a Billion, in 2023. She also appeared as herself in this year’s Jonathan Groff- and Karan Soni-led A Nice Indian Boy. She has nearly one million followers on TikTok, where she’s known for her comedy sketches.

The romantic comedy “A Nice Indian Boy,” starring Karan Soni (“Deadpool”) and Jonathan Groff is getting a nationwide theatrical release.

Levantine Films and Wayfarer Studios, which produced the film, have tapped Blue Harbor Entertainment to handle U.S. distribution, with a theatrical release date set for April 4.

The film follows Naveen (Soni) as he brings his fiancé Jay (Groff) home to meet his traditional Indian family who, as the film’s logline explains, “must contend with accepting Naveen’s white-orphan-artist boyfriend and helping them plan the Indian wedding of their dreams.” The cast also includes Sunita Mani, Zarna Garg (“Zarna”) and Harish Patel.

“A Nice Indian Boy” is directed by Roshan Sethi from a script penned by Eric Randall, based on the play by Madhuri Shekar (“3 Body Problem” and “The Nevers”).

There’s no love lost between She Loves Me lovebirds, Laura Benanti and Zachary Levi.

Though they shared the Broadway stage in a successful and Tony Award-winning 2016 musical revival, Benanti made it clear in a new podcast interview that she was never a fan of Levi, who at the time was a successful TV star from NBC’s Chuck and on his way to movie stardom as the title character in DC’s Shazam! “I never liked him,” Benanti told Eric Williams on his That’s a Gay Ass Podcast. “Everyone was like, ‘He’s so great!’ And I was like, ‘No, he’s not. He’s sucking up all the fucking energy in this room. He wants to mansplain everybody’s part to them.'”

Directed by Scott Ellis and choreographed by Warren Carlyle, the Roundabout Theatre Company production starred Benanti and Levi opposite Jane Krakowski, Gavin Creel, Byron Jennings,...

Casting was announced for Broadway’s upcoming Just in Time starring Jonathan Groff as Bobby Darin, with the Merrily We Roll Along Tony winner to be joined on stage in the new musical by Joe Barbara (A Bronx Tale The Musical), Michele Pawk (Wicked), Lance Roberts (The Music Man), Caesar Samayoa (Come From Away), Christine Cornish, Julia Grondin (Funny Girl), Valeria Yamin (Moulin Rouge!), John Treacy Egan (My Fair Lady), Tari Kelly (Mr. Saturday Night), Matt Magnusson, Khori Michelle Petinaud (Lempicka), and Larkin Reilly (Bad Cinderella).

It seems Moana 2 is in no mood to stop until it breaks all records. The movie has not yet completed its debut weekend, smashing several records. The film has now surpassed Frozen II, which held the record for the biggest Thanksgiving debut with its $120 million+ opening. The numbers are mind-blowing and will put the Walt Disney Animation back on the top as their last two films, Strange World and Wish, underperformed in the last two November. This animated feature is benefitting the most from the Thanksgiving release. Keep scrolling for more.

According to Box Office Mojo’s report, Frozen II collected a magnificent $130 million on its debut weekend. It is the highest-grossing Thanksgiving debut ever. The film was released in 2019 and featured voice actors, including Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, Josh Gad, and Jonathan Groff.

“Cross” might be over, but that doesn’t mean you have to move on from gritty cop procedurals. TheWrap has eight titles for you to watch if you loved Prime Video’s thrilling drama.

If not for the groundbreaking police drama pioneer “Dragnet,” where would the genre be? “Cross” is the latest addition to the category, serving viewers with just as much action, drama, villainy and twisty mystery. Whether its a detective, a forensic scientist or an everyday cop on the job, there’s something exciting about the life of an officer that TV watchers just can’t get enough of.

Here are eight shows that will feed your crime thriller taste buds until “Cross” returns for Season 2.

The Tony Awards Administration Committee met today to confirm the eligibility status of eleven Broadway productions for the 2024-2025 season. This was the first time this season that the Tony Awards Administration Committee met to decide the eligibility for the 78th Annual Tony Awards.

The productions discussed were: “Home,” “Oh, Mary!,” “Job,” “Once Upon a Mattress,” “The Roommate,” “The Hills of California,” “McNeal,” “Yellow Face,” “Thornton Wilder’s Our Town,” “Left on Tenth,” and “Romeo + Juliet.”

The committee made the following determinations:

Tory Kittles will be considered eligible in Best Lead Actor in a Play for his performance in “Home.”

Cole Escola will be considered eligible for Best Lead Actor in a Play for their performance in “Oh, Mary!”

Peter Friedman and Sydney Lemmon will be considered eligible in Best Lead Actor/Actress in a Play for their respective roles in “Job.

Another Grammy nominations clean-sweep for Broadway: For the third consecutive year, all the nominees for Best Musical Theater Album are for Broadway productions. No West End, Off Broadway, regional theater – or 2022 winner TikTok.

The six 2025 Grammy nominees in the theater category are Hell’s Kitchen, Merrily We Roll Along, The Notebook, The Outsiders, Suffs and The Wiz. Four of the shows are still running, though two of those (The Notebook and Suffs) will be closed when the winners are announced in February so would be unable to benefit ticket-wise from the publicity.

This year’s cast album nominations mean that plenty of performers not typically associated with music, or only music, could potentially tick off a box on the long road to Egot status: Daniel Radcliffe, Wayne Brady, Jonathan Groff, Lindsay Mendez, among others.

13 Films has come on board to represent international sales at the AFM this week on the romantic comedy and SXSW selection A Nice Indian Boy from Levantine Films and Wayfarer Studios.

Karan Soni from the Deadpool franchise and Nobody Wants This and Jonathan Groff from Hamilton and The Matrix Resurrections star in the story directed by Roshan Sethi (7 Days).

When Naveen brings his white-orphan-artist fiancé Jay home to meet his traditional Indian family, they must work together to plan the Indian wedding of their dreams.

Sunita Mani, Zarna Garg, and Harish Patel round out this the cast on the cross-cultural family comedy.

The prize catch of the title isn’t exactly who you might expect in “A Nice Indian Boy,” a romantic comedy that brings a welcome queer angle to that substantial subgenre of love stories tangled up in Indian social mores and cross-generational family politics. In many such films, Naveen (Karan Soni) would be the most desirable of matches for a female protagonist: good-looking, well-spoken and a working doctor. That he’s gay puts him in the less traditionally masculine role of the one seeking a suitor; that his “nice Indian boy” is in fact Jay (Jonathan Groff), a white man raised in Naveen’s culture, is the more complicating factor in director Roshan Sethi’s bright, big-hearted if overly tidy third feature.

Still, Sethi and screenwriters Eric Randall — adapting a stage play by Madhuri Shekar — aren’t out to subvert every trope and tradition in the book. From its meet-cute...

Everything to Know About Frozen 3: What Fans Can Anticipate from the Next Chapter! ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

In 2013, Disney’s beloved animated movie, Frozen, quickly became a global sensation and captivated audiences with a modern take on Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen. The movie’s success paved the way for a sequel, Frozen 2, released in 2019. Despite Frozen 2’s mixed reviews, the box office success made it possible for the franchise to bring a third chapter, and fans eagerly await the continuing story of Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, Olaf, and Sven. Although Frozen 2 lacks a traditional villain, offering spiritual clarity for Arendelle and Northuldra, its introspective theme, Into the Unknown, sets the stage for new possibilities in Frozen 3.

Here’s everything you need to know about Frozen 3.

A Spring Awakening reunion is taking shape on the Parisian set of Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino’s upcoming Amazon series Étoile.

TVLine has learned exclusively that newly-minted Tony winner Jonathan Groff is set to guest-star in the first season of the Palladinos’ ballet-themed dramedy, which boasts a cast that includes Groff’s Spring Awakening co-star Gideon Glick. Details on Groff’s character are scarce, but we can confirm that he will share the screen with Glick.

During the era of network television, shows used to have a shelf-life of at least 10 seasons. Some TV series that were made before the Ott boom continue to enjoy the freedom to adapt and improve over the course of many years, but the same can’t be said about made-for-ott shows, especially the ones on Netflix. Yes, “guilty pleasure content” like Emily in Paris and Elite has benefited from the hate-watch syndrome. However, a lot of really good shows have been unceremoniously axed by the streaming platform before they could find their audience. The one cancellation that hurt viewers the most was Mindhunter. Now, ever since its termination, fans have been clamoring for David Fincher, Jonathan Groff, Holt McCallany, Anna Torv, and the rest of the team to come together for at least one more season. Like the monkey’s paw curling effect, they did return to Netflix, but just via different projects.

Exclusive: Troian Bellisario (Pretty Little Liars) and Thomas Lennon (Unfrosted) have joined Weekend at the End of the World, an indie horror comedy co-written and directed by Gille Klabin.

The pair stars alongside the previously announced Cameron Fife and Clay Elliott. Details as to their roles are under wraps.

Recently wrapping production in Los Angeles, Weekend follows best friends Karl (Elliott) and Miles (Fife), who find themselves in a secluded cabin in the woods with what they think is an opportunity to get rich, with the only thing standing in their way being the end of the world.

The project marks the second outing for Gille Kalbin as director following the release of sci-fi thriller The Wave, starring Justin Long. Klabin, Elliott, and Spencer McCurnin wrote the script, with Hero Moves and June Street Productions producing.

Jonathan Groff is hilariously reacting to the rumors that his best friend Lea Michele doesn’t know how to read.

The Tony-winning actor appeared as a guest on the latest episode of the Tactful Pettiness podcast with hosts Cody Rigsby and Andrew Chappelle. They decided to ask him if they rumors about Lea being illiterate are true or not!

“I have seen her read! Oh my god, do you really think she can’t read? How does that even get started?!” Jonathan replied.

The hosts then asked if Jonathan had seen Lea reading music off the music stand in rehearsals and he replied, “That’s a great example. No, she did not come in off book!”

“Oh my god, that’s so funny. Let it be known. We’re dispelling the rumor. That’s so funny,” he added.

Jonathan Groff singing Bollywood tunes is the centerpiece of “A Nice Indian Boy,” a groundbreaking gay rom-com that’s heating up the BFI London Film Festival.

Director Roshan Sethi and stars Groff and Karan Soni (the “Deadpool” franchise) are challenging Hollywood norms with their cross-cultural love story, which debuted at SXSW. It aims to bring a fresh perspective to both LGBTQ+ and South Asian representation on screen.

The genesis of the project traces back to 2019, when Levantine Films optioned Madhuri Shekar’s play of the same name and Eric Randall adapted it as a screenplay. Sethi came aboard in 2021 after the producers saw his previous film “7 Days.” He then approached his real-life partner Soni to co-star. Groff signed on after watching “7 Days.”

Set in the U.S., the film follows socially-reserved doctor Naveen (Soni) who brings his fiancé Jay (Groff) home to meet his traditional Indian family, who...

The Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS Board of Trustees has added eight new board members including actor Jonathan Groff, newly elected Actors’ Equity Association president Brooke Shields, Broadway League interim president Jason Laks, and Black Theatre Coalition co-founder T. Oliver Reid.

The newcomers fill seats made vacant by the departures of, among others, former Equity president Kate Shindle and former League president Charlotte St. Martin, both of whom retired from their positions this year. Also stepping off the board after years of service are publicist Chris Boneau, Linda Duncombe, Adam Krauthamer and Stephen Lewin.

Two seats were left vacant by the deaths of Broadway performers Chita Rivera and Gavin Creel.

Other newcomers to the board are: Kristin Caskey, executive vice president, content and creative at Ambassador Theatre Group; production stage manager Julie DeVore; production stage manager Johnny Milani; and Erik Piecuch, senior vice president, entertainment banking at City National Bank.

Jonathan Groff was the first actor cast in the rom-com A Nice Indian Boy and he had no idea Karan Soni was also gay when he suggested the actor for his love interest!

The co-stars hit the red carpet together while attending the premiere during the opening night of NewFest on Thursday (October 10) at Sva Theater in New York City.

They were joined on the carpet by director Roshan Sethi, who happens to be Karan‘s longtime partner!

In a new interview with The Daily Beast, Roshan revealed that Jonathan requested Karan to be his love interest in the movie without knowing they were a couple, or that Karan was gay.

The article notes, “Sethi thought he’d have to work to court Groff—’An independent film needs a famous white person to get made,’ he half-jokes—when in actuality Groff was already envisioning the exact film that now exists.

Brody Grant, the Tony-nominated actor who plays Ponyboy Curtis in Broadway’s The Outsiders, will return to the role next week following a monthlong hiatus, Deadline has confirmed.

While no reason was given for his absence, a representative for the musical said in a statement, “The Outsiders is a very demanding project. He needed time away and is returning next week. As with any long-running shows, our performers regularly take time away, when needed, to recharge and reset.”

Grant’s understudies, Josh Strobl and Trevor Wayne, have been covering the role in his absence.

Grant was Tony-nominated last season in the Best Leading Actor/Musical, losing out to Jonathan Groff (Merrily We Roll Along).

In addition to Grant, the Broadway cast includes Sky Lakota-Lynch, Brent Comer, Jason Schmidt, Joshua Boone and Emma Pittman.

Variety was first to report.

Jonathan Groff is returning to Broadway!

The Tony winner is set to star in Just In Time, a new musical about the life and times of singer Bobby Darin, Variety reports.

The Circle in the Square Theatre will be transformed into “an intimate and immersive night club, complete with a live band and ensemble of 16″ to perform the legendary songwriter’s hits like “Splish Splash,” “Beyond the Sea,” “Mack the Knife” and “Dream Lover.”

Moulin Rouge director Alex Timbers is developing and directing the show.

Here’s a summary: The show will follow the “great American entertainer’s meteoric journey — from soaring highs to crushing lows […] whose short but remarkable life took him from teen idol to global sensation, inspiring generations of performers who followed.”

“Bobby Darin was a supernova. He blazed his way through every corner of the entertainment industry, but his enormous talent,...

Fresh off his Tony-winning turn in a revival of Stephen Sondheim’ “Merrily We Roll Along,” Jonathan Groff will return to the rialto next spring in the new Bobby Darin jukebox musical “Just in Time.” Tony-winning director Alex Timbers (“Moulin Rouge”) will oversee the production that is set to transform the Circle in the Square theater into a nightclub complete with a swing band.

Groff will lead a cast of 16 to tell the story of this singer/songwriter who was only 37 when he died of heart disease in 1973. Darin had a string of hits in the 1950s including the chart-topping “Splish Splash,” “Dream Lover,” “Mack the Knife” and “Just in Time.” He turned to acting in the 1960s, often opposite his wife Sandra Dee (they met making “Come September” in 1961). He reaped an Oscar bid in 1963 for his supporting turn as a shell-shocked soldier in “Captain Newman, M.D.” In the 1970s,...

HBO brings some great dramas that focus on historical events. Chernobyl is a five-part miniseries that told us of the events during and after the real nuclear disaster.

Of course, when the Chernobyl disaster happened, the Soviet Union would try to hide it all. It ended up being one of the biggest disasters at the time, showing the realities of radiation not just to those in the immediate vicinity, but those around the disaster.

The series then focused on the clean-up efforts, while people looked to figure out what really happened that night. Not only was this important to help people in need, but it was essential to prevent it from happening again. Chernobyl offers us a mixture of drama and history. There are many shows just like it, and here are five to watch next.

Band of Brothers

Since it took the streaming scene by storm, Netflix has had some great shows available on its service. However, as soon as the streaming giant became known for its quality prestige dramas, it also became quite notorious for canceling some of its best shows without any rhyme or reason, despite some of them being fan favorites.

Mindhunter is one of those shows that needed more love from Netflix, but instead ended up being shelved for good. Of course, this had quite the reaction from fans, who were a little miffed about shows like Jupiter’s Legacy and Mindhunter being canceled, while other more subpar shows get renewed again and again.

The latest Doctor Who revival hasn't been the hit most expected; with Disney+ bringing the series to a global audience and giving the long-running sci-fi series a much-needed cash injection, fans imagined it might finally reach the same heights as The Mandalorian and Stranger Things.

Instead, returning showrunner Russell T Davies' new season 1 divided fans and viewership hasn't been good. That's despite claims the main goal was drawing much younger viewers to the show.

Then, there was the expected (and unfortunate) backlash to Doctor Who featuring a Black lead and LGBTQ+ themes. Ultimately, things came to a head in July with a damning report suggesting the show could be cancelled after season 2 and that Disney+ might part ways with the BBC over what's proven to be a failed, pricey experiment for the streamer.

Talking to SFX (via SFFGazette.com), Davies didn't give too much away but confirmed Doctor Who has...

Exclusive: The BBC has dismissed viewer complaints about an episode of Doctor Who featuring a historic gay kiss between Ncuti Gatwa and Jonathan Groff.

Two disgruntled audience members took issue with the “inappropriate sexual innuendo” that developed between Gatwa’s Time Lord and Groff’s bounty hunter, Rogue, in a Bridgerton-inspired story.

The viewers said the Season 14 episode, titled ‘Rogue,’ featured content that was “unsuitable for children.” One person added that the speed of the Doctor and Rogue’s connection was “concerning.”

The BBC’s Executive Complaints Unit (Ecu) threw out the concerns. In a ruling on Thursday, the unit said the sexual innuendo was mild and suitable for Doctor Who’s young audience.

“The Ecu considered the sexual innuendo to be towards the mildest end of the spectrum and in any case likely to go over the heads of children,” the Ecu said.

“The development of the relationship served...

Do you want to build a snowman? Are you still avoiding capes? After the gargantuan success of both "Frozen" and its sequel at Walt Disney Animation and "Incredibles 2" at Pixar Animation, it should come as no surprise that both franchises are being given more sequels, as announced officially at the D23 Expo in Anaheim, California today.

/Film's Jacob Hall was in attendance during the studio's big panel presentation at D23, where the studios revealed "Frozen 3" will arrive in 2027, and "The Incredibles 3" is currently in development at Pixar. Since neither "Frozen II" nor "Incredibles 2" had specific titles for the sequels, it doesn't seem like the three-quels will have any sort of subtitle either.

So, what do we know about both of these sequels after the big announcement at D23?

Steve Desmond and Michael Sherman, the writing team behind the M. Night Shyamalan thriller Knock at the Cabin, have been tapped to adapt Paramount Pictures’ coming-of-age horror thriller Wilderness Reform, based on the novel of the same name written by Harrison Query and Matt Query.

Lindsey Anderson Beer, who wrote and made her feature directorial debut with the horror movie Pet Sematary: Bloodline for the studio last year, is producing the feature through her Lab Brew production company as part of her first-look deal with Paramount.

Also producing is Scott Glassgold through his production company Ground Control.

It can be tough to catch the magic of unease that “Longlegs” has laid on people during and after seeing the film.

Since seeing the latest Oz Perkins horror film, many have been clamoring to recapture that magic. Luckily there are plenty of TV shows that balance the supernatural with the everyday when it comes to hunting and tracking down a serial killer — and worse.

These are the seven TV shows you should check out once you see “Longlegs” and are needing to extend that pit-in-your-stomach feeling.

Much like “Longlegs,” “Yellowjackets” toes the line on whether or not the things happening to the stranded high school soccer team are supernatural or just horrific in a realistic sense. The stranded girls are constantly fighting with the fear and paranoia for what could be with...

As much as classic Doctor Who fans hate to admit it, romantic tension between the Doctor and their companions is part of the formula. Eight was a dashing lead alongside Grace Holloway, Ten and Rose’s love story has been well documented, while Fifteen’s flirtation with almost-companion Rogue has us hoping that Jonathan Groff will board the Tardis again. And heck, long-time Whovians know all about the behind-the-scenes marriage of Four and Romana II.

So it’s understandable that some fans feel a bit of disappointment about the way things ended up between Jodie Whittaker’s 13th Doctor and Yaz, her most consistent companion. Despite the clear attraction between the two, Thirteen regenerated into David Tennant’s Fourteen before they could act on their feelings.

Whittaker has a message for those longing for more pining between the Doctor and Yaz: “[N]ever say never! We’ve got adventures to do.

Those lucky enough to attend May’s Disney’s upfronts at the North Javits Center were treated to clips, teases and appearances from some of the world’s biggest stars.

In the spotlight from the Bob Iger-led Mouse House were hits from the Disney stable including The Acolyte, Welcome to Wrexham, Abbott Elementary and a wealth of ESPN sports shows. The combined budget must have been astronomical.

But almost completely absent from the upfront festivities was Doctor Who, the iconic British sci-fi series that Disney+ now co-produces with the BBC following what was undoubtedly one of the biggest global TV show deals of the past decade. Doctor Who was handed a minor bit of real estate at the North Javits, but its lack of front-and-center placement may spin a yarn about the series’ position in the Disney priority log nearly three years on from the deal being struck.
