Katie Holmes is officially heading for Broadway
Posted on May 19th, 2008 by Hot Momma
This is kind of old news as we reported here last week, but now the ink has dried now and Katie Holmes is officially heading for Broadway.
Katie has made some interesting career choices over the last few years. Holmes co-starred with Christian Bale in the 2005 blockbuster “Batman Begins,” but will not join Bale to reprise the role in this summer’s “The Dark Knight.” This is because she choose to star in this year’s “Mad Money” alongside Diane Keaton and Queen Latifah. Now looking to bounce back from this box-office flop Katie will hit the stage in a revival directed by Simon McBurney, of Arthur Miller’s “All My Sons” this fall.
The Dawson Creek star joins fellow castmates John Lithgow, Dianne Wiest and Patrick Wilson.
The play, first seen on Broadway in 1947, was Miller’s first Broadway hit. It concerns businessman Joe Keller (Lithgow) whose factory supplied defective cylinder parts to the military, resulting in the deaths of 21 pilots during World War II. Yet it was his business partner who went to jail for the mistake.
Wiest will play Keller’s wife; Wilson, his idealistic son; and Holmes, the son’s fiancee and daughter of Keller’s disgraced partner.
