Broadway Shows Closing Soon: ‘Dorian Gray,' ‘Sunset Boulevard' and More
Based on true events, this musical drama by Tina Landau ('Redwood') and Adam Guettel ('Days of Wine and Roses') stars Jeremy Jordan in the title role of a cave owner and explorer in 1925 Kentucky who creates a national media sensation when he is trapped deep underground. Taylor Trensch plays Skeets Miller, the diminutive cub reporter who descends into the cave to conduct a series of interviews with Floyd and help get him out. Landau directs. (Through June 22 at Lincoln Center Theater's Vivian Beaumont Theater.) Read the review.
Jason Robert Brown's two-character musical of doomed romance, which arrived Off Broadway in 2002 and later became a movie starring Anna Kendrick and Jeremy Jordan, comes to Broadway for the first time. Adrienne Warren, a Tony winner for 'Tina,' stars as Cathy opposite Nick Jonas as Jamie, New Yorkers whose marriage can't bear the tension between his swift success as a novelist and her lack of it as an actress. Whitney White ('Jaja's African Hair Braiding') directs. (Through June 22 at the Hudson Theater.) Read the review.
The TV series about the making of a Broadway musical has itself become a Broadway musical: a backstage comedy leading up to the opening of 'Bombshell,' a musical about Marilyn Monroe. Directed by the five-time Tony winner Susan Stroman, it has a score by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman ('Hairspray'), whose dozens of songs for the series include 'Let Me Be Your Star,' and choreography by Joshua Bergasse. The book is by Rick Elice and Bob Martin; Brooks Ashmanskas, Krysta Rodriguez and Kristine Nielsen are among the cast. (Through June 22 at the Imperial Theater.) Read the review.
David Mamet's luxuriantly crude, bare-knuckled real estate drama, which won the 1984 Pulitzer Prize, gets its third Broadway revival. Kieran Culkin, last on Broadway a decade ago in 'This Is Our Youth,' stars as Richard Roma — the Al Pacino role in the movie adaptation — opposite Bob Odenkirk (as Shelley Levene, the Jack Lemmon role), Bill Burr, Michael McKean, Donald Webber Jr., Howard W. Overshown and John Pirruccello. Patrick Marber, a 2023 Tony winner for his production of 'Leopoldstadt,' directs. How's that for a lead? (Through June 28 at the Palace Theater.) Read the review.

Matthew McConaughey is set to play an iconic private investigator in a new movie from True Detective creator
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Matthew McConaughey is set to star in a movie based on the Mike Hammer detective novels written by none other than True Detective creator Nic Pizzolatto. Per Variety, not much yet is known about the film, and a director has not yet been attached. Mike Hammer is a no-holds-barred detective who first appeared in the 1947 novel I, the Jury. Since then, 22 novels have been released, and there have been five feature-length adaptations. The book series is set to end this year with the novel, Baby It's Murder. McConaughey starred as Detective Rustin "Rust" Cohle opposite Woody Harrelson as Detective Martin "Marty" Hart in True Detective season 1, which hit HBO back in 2014. The story took place across two timelines: 1995, when the pair are young detectives fresh on the scene who are brought in to investigate the death of Dora Lange, and then 17 years later when Dora's murder is suddenly linked to a series of unsolved missing-person cases. Pizzolatto served as showrunner for True Detective seasons 1-3, before Issa Lopez took over for season 4 and the upcoming season 5. The scribe was also hired to rewrite the script for Marvel's Blade before the film was shelved indefinitely. Mike Hammer will be the first time he and McConaughey have reunited since 2014. The Mike Hammer movie does not yet have a release date. For more, check out our list of the most exciting upcoming movies in 2025 and beyond, or check out our list of movie release dates.
