About merrily we roll along on broadway, video & photos.
Spanning three decades in the entertainment business, Merrily We Roll Along charts the turbulent relationship between composer Franklin Shepard and his two lifelong friends—writer Mary and lyricist & playwright Charley. An inventive cult-classic ahead of its time, Merrily We Roll Along features some of Stephen Sondheim’s most celebrated and personal songs. Maria Friedman first directed the musical at London’s Menier Chocolate Factory–a production that subsequently transferred to the Harold Pinter Theatre, where it garnered the most five-star reviews in West End history before going on to win the Olivier Award for Best Musical Revival.

Last season the anthology comedy was set along the infamous Oregon Trail, with Radcliffe playing an idealistic small-town preacher. Radcliffe also executive produces. The second season, Miracle Workers: Dark Ages , was set in the Medieval Period and starred Radcliffe as the hapless Prince Chauncey desperately trying to live up to his father’s (Peter Serafinowicz) high expectations. The second season aired in 2020 while the original season, which saw Buscemi in the role of a weary God and Radcliffe as a low-level angel, aired in 2019. 2020 also saw Radcliffe alongside Ellie Kemper and Jon Hamm in “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: Kimmy vs. the Reverend,” in which he plays the role of Kimmy’s fiancé, Prince Frederick. The interactive special aired on Netflix in May 2020. Earlier that year Radcliffe returned to London’s West End starring in the role of Clov opposite Alan Cumming’s Hamm in Samuel Beckett’s Endgame at The Old Vic. The Beckett double bill, featuring Jane Horrocks and Karl Johnson, also saw Radcliffe and Cumming star in Rough for Theatre II , with both plays directed by Richard Jones. 2019 also saw the release of the true-life prison break feature Escape From Pretoria in which Radcliffe played the role of Tim Jenkin.

What promises to be the most passionate love story of the new Broadway season is a tale of three people. Like many triangles, this one involves jealousy, guilt, misunderstanding, recrimination and betrayal.
As is usually the case with such affairs, it begins in ecstasy and ends in tragedy. (You could also say it begins in tragedy and ends in ecstasy, but more on that later.) One big difference, though, between this triangle and the more classic variety: Sex is not part of the equation for its leading lovers.
What propels the highs and lows of “Merrily We Roll Along,” the 1981 Stephen Sondheim-George Furth musical that begins performances this month at the Hudson Theater, is friendship. But for the stars of this first Broadway revival — Jonathan Groff, Lindsay Mendez and Daniel Radcliffe — embodying the implosion of that friendship may well be more emotionally charged, rewarding and wrenching than anything they’ve done before.
As often happens with actors portraying intimacy, the sentiments they evoke in performance have bled into real life — or the good feelings anyway, when their characters are still fresh, hopeful and unconditionally smitten with one another. These well-seasoned pros may be in their 30s or early 40s, but when they describe their relationship — offstage, I mean, although the line becomes blurry — they’re as effusive and dewy as Romeo and Juliet before the going got tough.
“It’s such a special show in that way,” said Groff, 38, who received his first Tony nomination at 22 for playing a sexually addled adolescent in the musical “Spring Awakening.” “Often I feel you get that with the people you play romantic interests with. But the love story in this show is the friends. So there’s this intensity in a friendship that I’ve never experienced with a play before.”
Groff made those observations last fall when “Merrily,” the American directorial debut of the British actress (and frequent Sondheim interpreter) Maria Friedman , had just started previews in its Off Broadway incarnation at New York Theater Workshop. That its transfer to Broadway seemed guaranteed once it opened had much to do with the aching, loving sincerity with which its cast suffused it.
It’s important to note that “loving sincerity” is hardly a description that would have been applied to “Merrily” before Friedman — who had staged two earlier versions in London and Boston — got her hands on it. When it first opened on Broadway 42 years ago, “Merrily” was a heartbreaker for all the wrong reasons.
![daniel radcliffe tour 2023 On a stage floor, a bespectacled man in a chocolate-hued corduroy suit is kneeling. He appears concerned by a distraught-looking couple, who are also on the floor, with their arms wrapped around each other.](https://static01.nyt.com/images/2023/09/17/multimedia/17new-merrily-mpbj/17new-merrily-mpbj-articleLarge.jpg?quality=75&auto=webp&disable=upscale)
Based on the 1934 George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart play of the same title, “Merrily” follows, in reverse chronology, the deleterious effect of success on its charismatic protagonist, a Broadway composer-turned-Hollywood producer named Franklin Shepard, and his longtime chums: Mary Flynn, the acerbic alcoholic novelist (and drama critic), and Charley Kringas, a witty, left-leaning lyricist. (Those roles are played in the revival by Groff, Mendez and Radcliffe.) Unwisely stunt-cast with actors in their teens and early 20s, “Merrily” was damned by critics for being cynical, facile and, to quote the New York Times reviewer Frank Rich, “ a shambles .”
The show ran for 16 post-preview performances, and the long, fruitful collaboration between Sondheim and the director, Harold Prince (which had included the revolutionary “Company” and “Sweeney Todd”), ended in a rift that lasted for two decades. (The project’s devastating impact on its young cast is chronicled in the 2016 documentary “ Best Worst Thing That Ever Could Have Happened .”)
Yet in a period abundant with all things Sondheim, including the current Broadway revival of “Sweeney Todd” and the forthcoming Off Broadway show “Here We Are” (which Sondheim was working on when he died in 2021 ), “Merrily” has emerged as anything but a lame duck. More perhaps than any of the recent Sondheim productions, this tear-streaked “Merrily” pronounces a definitive finis to the perception of the composer as an overly cerebral artist of chilly, distancing cleverness.
Friedman’s approach, of locating and clinging to the show’s wrenching emotional center, clearly affected its 20-some member ensemble, which has been increased by two for Broadway. When the Workshop production ended its limited, sold-out run in January, Groff said he and his co-stars were “a wreck, even knowing we were going to Broadway, to say goodbye to an experience that meant so much.”
Nonetheless, Groff, Mendez and Radcliffe agreed to think as little as possible about “Merrily” for the next seven months. And while they continued to keep in close touch (they all attended “Sweeney Todd” together), they avoided discussing it.
And so the shadows of Frank, Mary and Charlie were banished, and life, being life, continued — in some cases, momentously. Mendez and Groff both worked on television projects (which they could not discuss because of the actors’ strike). Mendez moved back to Manhattan from California with her 2-year-old daughter.
Groff saw Beyoncé’s Renaissance tour four times, officiated at a friend’s wedding in Portugal and attended a 10-day silent meditation retreat in Utah. (Two of his last calls, before he surrendered his phone, were to Mendez and Radcliffe, to let them know where he’d be.) And, yes, he and Mendez both saw “Barbie.”
Radcliffe did not, for a good reason. In April, he and his longtime partner, Erin Darke, had their first child. “That has been basically the entire break,” he said. “He’s divine,” Radcliffe said simply, restoring luster to a weary adjective. “And he’s just started singing and laughing.”
While this addition to his life kept “Merrily” thoughts mostly at bay, Radcliffe — who registers as the most obsessive of the three — admitted that he continued to practice his solo “Franklin Shepard, Inc.,” a rapid-fire tongue twister. He would even sing it while holding his son. “He seems to respond to really fast music,” Radcliffe said.
When I met with Radcliffe and his co-stars in a rehearsal room on West 42nd Street, they were radiant with a back-to-school energy that felt appropriate to the end of August. The cast and crew of “Merrily” — which also features Reg Rogers, Krystal Joy Brown and Katie Rose Clarke — had reunited only three days earlier. Later, for Clarke’s birthday, they serenaded her over a pizza slice with a candle. During rehearsals, between scenes of conflict and recrimination, they tended to fall into reassuring hugs.
The bond among the stars felt, if anything, tighter than when I spoke to them last December. They were aware of it from the moment they met. “When the three of us first walked into the room,” Groff said, “there was a natural — —”
“It was a heart connection,” Mendez said.
Groff continued: “It’s a vibe. It’s chemistry. You have it on dates sometimes. And then going night after night after night and digging into the energy that was between us and the show deepening it. The three of us have — it’s such a gift — a meant-to-be alignment of personality and energy.”
What they share, among other things, is a bone-deep love of that currently beleaguered art form, the theater. Groff and Mendez, who turned 40 this year, arrived in Manhattan in their late teens from Pennsylvania and California to “pound the pavements,” as they said, sounding like the hoofers in a Busby Berkeley musical.
By that time, the London-born Radcliffe, 34, was already world-famous as the title character of the Harry Potter film franchise, in which he starred for a decade. His parents had been stage actors before he was born, and Radcliffe said that, growing up, he spent as much time going to theater as to the movies.
At 17, he made his West End and Broadway stage debuts playing the psychotic stable boy in Peter Shaffer’s “Equus,” with Richard Griffiths as his psychiatrist. (“That’s so Dan, that his first role would be ‘Equus,’” Groff said.)
“I think I love the element of risk,” Radcliffe said of working in theater.
Almost as daringly, he took on the lead in the 2011 Broadway revival of “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.” Like his co-stars, he is lyrical on the singular emotional impact that is possible with musicals. “Two notes of a violin, or a certain moment of singing, can push your heart over the edge of where it was,” he said.
So would he describe himself as a member of that New York-centric cult that makes a religion of the Broadway musical? “They’re the high priests,” he said, pointing to the others. “I’m like an altar boy.” He said that hearing a perfectly normal phrase “like ‘How do you do?’” will trigger his co-stars to start performing a lyric with just that phrase.
Sure enough, when a few moments later I mentioned that I grew up in Winston-Salem, N.C., Groff and Mendez responded immediately and simultaneously in swooping falsetto and soprano. “Winstooon-Saaalemm,” they sang, quoting a number I had almost forgotten from the musical “The Light in the Piazza.”
When they discussed their lyrics and dialogue from “Merrily,” they often seemed tremulous with the excitement of discovery. With an exactitude and passion that was unexpected at the end of a long rehearsal day, they parsed several scenes and musical numbers for me, especially moments when their characters just miss the chance to repair what’s gone wrong in their relationship.
Groff and Mendez started crying during several such descriptions, as if they had only just fully realized the extent of the destruction being done.
Mendez said those moments resonate even more fully now than they did seven months ago. “When we rehearsed this downtown, and had started being friendly, the thing that would hit me in my heart, was the idea of the friendship. But now it’s the actual friendship; we feel the way we feel they feel in ‘Opening Doors,’” she said, referring to an ebullient, optimistic trio performed when their characters are just starting out in New York. “So to think about that deteriorating is pretty gutting.”
All three speak of “Merrily” as something that their lives had been inevitably leading to. So it felt fair to pose the question that recurs throughout the songs in the show: “How did you get to be here?”
Radcliffe was the most succinct. “My life’s an absolute mystery to me in terms of how anything happens,” he said. “I won the lottery when I was 11 and have been trying to capitalize on it ever since in terms of being allowed to keep doing this. If you’d told me when I was finishing ‘Potter’ that I’d be doing things like this, I would absolutely not have believed you.”
Groff, who grew up in Lancaster, Pa., said, “I know when I was a kid, theater was like an escape for me, as a closeted teenager. And I think I really relate to when Frank says, ‘Music is my life, without music, I would die.’ Musical theater at that age was, like, lifesaving. And so to be now, at 38, doing a musical as a more fully realized version of who I am … I always went to theater to escape and to express and get out of my life completely. And it’s like this show — and maybe this is what makes it so unique and what brought me to this experience — this show is both the escape and bringing me into my own life at the same time.”
Mendez, who described growing up in California as a “Mexican Jew,” attended a largely white school in Orange County “where no one thought I belonged” and where she was told that as an actor, she would have a limited future, if any. When she arrived in New York at 18, she discovered, like Groff, “that New York and theater was where I was accepted, when I felt like I wasn’t accepted anywhere else.”
By 2018, she had racked up a substantial list of stage credits and won a Tony for her performance that year in “Carousel.” But when she moved back to Los Angeles to do a television series, her life began to feel unsettled.
When Groff, whom she knew casually, called her to say that a casting agent had said she would be perfect for the part of Mary, she had become a mother and was newly divorced. “I was like, I don’t live in New York anymore, and I don’t know who I really am right now. I feel really lost. How am I going to do this?” Mendez said.
“But somehow, magically, it all just worked. And when I got back here, the first day I walked in with them, it was just like, Oh my God, I’m home. And I know who I am and what I’m made to do. Of course I ended up here. There was no other place to end up.”
She has been bringing her daughter to rehearsals. “Seeing her sitting and watching us, enraptured by it,” she said, “I know she’s never going to think there’s not a place there for her.”
Mendez, who can switch quickly between sunniness and tears, became exultant. “And I get to build these memories for her. And build a theater lover. And build these new kids who are going to love it the way I did and know ‘Merrily We Roll Along.’”
She paused before adding gleefully, “That’s how we infect them.”

Merrily We Roll Along is a musical about 20 years in the lives of three old friends: Broadway composer-turned-film producer Franklin Shepard, playwright and lyricist Charley Kringas, and theatre critic Mary Flynn. The show charts how their friendship devolves and fractures in the course of two decades as a result of Frank's relentless quest for success, fame, and fortune.
Merrily We Roll Along goes in reverse chronological order, beginning when Frank is a successful but shallow producer whose choices have distanced him from his true composing talents and lifelong friends. The show ends when he, Charley, and Mary are young, bright-eyed, and meeting for the first time, when Frank and Charley become a writing duo and Mary meets them when she hears the beautiful music coming from their apartment. In the meantime, we also see Frank's romantic and professional relationships get turned inside out, too.
The musical is based on a 1934 play of the same name by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart. The Merrily We Roll Along musical changed the names and professions of its principal characters: playwright Richard Niles became Franklin, painter Jonathan Crale became Charley, and novelist Julia Glenn became Mary.
Adapting the story of Merrily We Roll Along into a musical also allowed composer Stephen Sondheim to be inventive with style and structure. To fit the reverse-chronological-order setup, he puts reprises of songs before their "original" versions, and he repeats some themes and sounds in different songs to mimic how memories from one's youth take on difference resonances over time.
Sondheim collaborated with bookwriter George Furth and director Hal Prince for the original production of Merrily We Roll Along on Broadway in 1981. It was the trio's second collaboration after the greatly successful Company — which, coincidentally, was just revived on Broadway in the 2021-22 season. The debut of Merrily We Roll Along in New York was not as successful initially; the show closed after 52 previews and 16 performances.
Since then, however, the show underwent extensive rewrites and has become a classic, spawning multiple Off-Broadway revivals and a London production that earned the Olivier Award for Best New Musical.

See it if You like Sondheim, the cast and a fine performance. It lacked something for me.
Don’t see it if You don’t like Sondheim.

See it if You like Sondheim, an engaging funny and sometimes sad story about life and friendships.
Don’t see it if You don't enjoy Sondheim or drama.
See it if You love musicals. Also if you love incredible, powerful storytelling with themes of friendship and stand out performances!
Don’t see it if You'd rather see a large, spectacular, dance heavy show.
See it if You like theater
Don’t see it if You don’t like theater

DANIEL RADCLIFFE stars next in the film Weird: The Al Yankovic Story , playing the greatest musician and sex symbol of our time, alongside Evan Rachel Wood as Madonna. The film will be available to stream for free on The Roku Channel on November 4. Radcliffe just starred in Paramount’s box office hit The Lost City alongside Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum. Season four of his TBS series “Miracle Workers,” with Steve Buscemi, Geraldine Viswanathan and Karan Soni just wrapped production. Last season the anthology comedy was set along the infamous Oregon Trail, with Radcliffe playing an idealistic small-town preacher. Radcliffe also executive produces. The second season, “Miracle Workers: Dark Ages,” was set in the Medieval Period and starred Radcliffe as the hapless Prince Chauncey desperately trying to live up to his father’s (Peter Serafinowicz) high expectations. The second season aired in 2020 while the original season, which saw Buscemi in the role of a weary God and Radcliffe as a low-level angel, aired in 2019. 2020 also saw Radcliffe alongside Ellie Kemper and Jon Hamm in “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: Kimmy vs. the Reverend,” in which he plays the role of Kimmy’s fiancé, Prince Frederick. The interactive special aired on Netflix in May 2020. Earlier that year Radcliffe returned to London’s West End starring in the role of Clov opposite Alan Cumming’s Hamm in Samuel Beckett’s Endgame at The Old Vic. The Beckett double bill, featuring Jane Horrocks and Karl Johnson, also saw Radcliffe and Cumming star in Rough for Theatre II , with both plays directed by Richard Jones. 2019 also saw the release of the true-life prison break feature Escape From Pretoria in which Radcliffe played the role of Tim Jenkin. Shot on location in Australia, the film is based on Jenkin’s autobiography Inside Out: Escape from Pretoria Prison . Radcliffe also starred in the comedic action film Guns Akimbo opposite Samara Weaving, playing Miles, a mild-mannered video game developer who accidentally finds himself starring in his own real-life and violent video game.
Since completing the final installment in the series of eight Harry Potter films in 2010, Radcliffe quickly proved himself a diverse talent. In 2011, he starred in a 10-month sell-out run of the Broadway musical How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying . The following year, Radcliffe starred in the horror/thriller The Woman in Black . He also starred opposite Jon Hamm in two seasons of the TV mini-series, “A Young Doctor’s Notebook,” a comedy-drama based on a collection of short stories by celebrated Russian author Mikhail Bulgakov. Other notable film credits include the survivalist film Jungle , in which Radcliffe stars in the true-life story of Yossi Ginsberg who was stranded alone in the Amazon jungle; Now You See Me 2 , alongside Michael Caine; A24’s indie hit Swiss Army Man with Paul Dano; Imperium , a thriller inspired by real events about white supremacists in America and Sony Pictures Classics’ Kill Your Darlings . Radcliffe has also starred opposite James McAvoy in the feature film Victor Frankenstein ; opposite June Temple in the horror-thriller Horns and with Zoe Kazan and Adam Driver in the romantic comedy What If . Radcliffe first appeared on stage in 2007 as Alan Strang, playing opposite Richard Griffiths, in Peter Shaffer’s Equus . Directed by Thea Sharrock, the play then transferred from London’s West End to Broadway in 2008. Radcliffe also starred alongside Cherry Jones and Bobby Cannavale in the sell-out Broadway production of the acclaimed original play The Lifespan of a Fact . Other Broadway credits include Martin McDonagh’s comic masterpiece The Cripple of Inishmaan as Billy, which made its way to Broadway from London’s West End, and a sell-out run of Privacy , a timely play about the digital age and technology, at NYC’s The Public Theater in 2016. He has also previously won rave reviews for his performance as Rosencrantz, opposite Josh McGuire’s Guildenstern, in Tom Stoppard’s Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead at The Old Vic Theatre, London. A lifelong fan of “The Simpsons,” Radcliffe has lent his voice to the show multiple times. First in November 2010, to the brooding vampire named Edmund for the show’s “Treehouse of Horror XXI” special entitled “Tweenlight” and to the character Diggs, a new transfer student whom Bart befriends. Radcliffe has also made a guest appearance as himself in the HBO/BBC series “Extras.”

Recent tour reviews
From one extreme to the other, the man who had found comfort in solitary performances for years, was not only surrounded by the six-piece Sweats, but also by the seven-piece New Orleans’ Preservation Hall Jazz Band (who had decided to stick around after their opening set for Yonder Mountain the night before). A colossal circus of horns marched out in front of Stage Rock, with the Night Sweats following close behind. With the brass wind at his back, Nathaniel Rateliff returned home on his knees. Dressed all in black (from his hat, all the way down to his boots), with arms outstretched to gather all the love coming his way, Rateliff looked up at the venue like he was seeing it for the first time. Then he channeled all that love into his newfound James Brown persona.
“Good evening everybody!”
Strands of discrete white lighting bounced off saxophones, and trumpets, and even a sousaphone, as New Orleans’ best paid tribute to Colorado’s best. There was something almost religious about what was happening on that stage. Rateliff played the part of a manic preacher who would just as soon send you straight to hell as he would lift you up to the gates of heaven. When he hit those throaty, guttural notes during “I’ve Been Failing”, it sent shivers down my spine. When his feet started to stomp along with the dual percussion of “Look It Here”, I couldn’t control my own extremities from following along. The tambourine came out at one point, and while he beat it against the slip-sliding, kicking-and-screaming legs below him, his perfectly manicured beard stayed steady in front of the microphone, as if it weren’t connected to the rest of his body. Seriously, with the dancing skills that man possesses, I don’t know how he stood still on a stage for all those years before The Night Sweats.
“We are only here because of you guys tonight, so thank you so much for coming. I never thought we’d be here with all of you, so this is a truly amazing thing for us.”
The Preservation Hall Jazz Band were excused after a few songs, leaving Rateliff and his matching brothers (most of whom wore denim jackets with ‘Intentional Dickweed’ embroidered across the back) to perform “The Intro”, “Howling at Nothing”, “Wasting Time”, and “Mellow Out”; all in pure Night Sweats style. The sky was clear and the air smelled of autumn, but the red lights upon the red rocks represented the heat radiating from the stage. No one was immune to the fever either. There wasn’t a single person questioning the name of the band at that point in the evening.
“In 1998 I moved here with my best friend, Joseph Pope III on bass, and we would come out here in the middle of the night. We were just a bunch of poor kids from nowhere. Well, Missouri actually, where all poor people come from. We sat on this stage and smoked a joint and drank some wine and told each other we’d play here someday. It’s nice to be here with you guys. And it’s nice to be here with my best friend too.”
In a time when so many artists are looking to the 80’s for inspiration, Rateliff and the Night Sweats are not the only band whose vision goes back a little further, but unlike Alabama Shakes and St. Paul & The Broken Bones, and even Shakey Graves, I don’t feel like I am watching a group of musicians paying homage to the 60’s; I feel like I am watching a band perform in the 60’s. It was partially the matching outfits; it was partially the lighting; it was partially the presentation and style of dancing and all the horns, but there was something more to it than that. There was an originality on display which should have been impossible for a retro band. Having seen Rateliff perform straight-up folk music so many times in the past, I had even more reason to be skeptical of his new stage personality, but if there was a façade to been seen through, my vision must be going in my old age, because everything during the 90-minute performance seemed 100% legit to me.
“We’ve been on tour for most of the past year. We never anticipated the album would do so well. Thank you for your support for our various bands and projects. It’s good to be here with all our neighbors.”
I’m going to forgo a detailed play-by-play of the show, but I will say they performed almost the entire album, with the only exception being “I’d Be Waiting”. They also performed live staples “The Intro” and “Out on the Weekend”, as well as a new song. We were given a dance lesson before “Shake” (“four corners…side to side…a little twist, try that”) and the band was loose, free flowing, but also in flawless form the entire night.

Amazing! Great performance, great vibes. Nathaniel and his band were really powerful and they transmitted a lot of good energy. I hope they release a new album soon and come back to Madrid.
Really entertaining band! Great vocals and music was fun and upbeat. Nathaniel seems really passionate and everyone on stage was really into it. Would like to see them again next time they are in Calgary.

Daniel Radcliffe: All New Movies and TV Shows in 2024 and 2025
![daniel radcliffe tour 2023 of Daniel Radcliffe: All New Movies and TV Shows in 2024 and 2025](https://thecinemaholic.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Shubho-Profile-Photo-2.jpg?w=26&h=26&crop=1)
The actor who made magic believable to a whole generation deserves high praise. Yet Daniel Radcliffe’s popularity with the ‘Harry Potter’ franchise doesn’t justify his talents as a performer. There are many movies that he is a part of, which were released after the franchise ended, which are evidence of his acting prowess and versatility. Movies like ‘The Woman In Black’ (2012), ‘Kill Your Darlings’ (2013), ‘Victor Frankenstein’ (2015), ‘Swiss Army Man’ (2016), ‘Guns Akimbo’ (2019), and ‘Weird: The Al Yankovic Story’ (2022) showcase Radcliffe’s capabilities. If you are a fan of his from his ‘Harry Potter’ days or his recent filmography, you might wonder when and in what you will see him next. Well, here we bring you the list of his upcoming projects!
1. Digman! Season 2 (TBA)
Comedy Central’s Digman!’ is an adult animated series created by Neil Campbell and Andy Samberg. Set in a world where archaeologists are massive celebrities and the coolest people on the planet, the series revolves around the retired adventurer Rip Digman and his team of experts. They travel to dangerous parts of the world to unearth legendary artifacts and grow their reputations as fearless adventurers. Originally premiered in March 2023, the series was renewed for a second season in May 2023.
![daniel radcliffe tour 2023](https://thecinemaholic.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/1-10.jpg)
The show’s voice cast includes Samberg, Radcliffe, Mitra Jouhari, Tim Robinson, Guz Khan, Dale Soules, and Melissa Fumero. Radcliffe lends his voice to Sebastian. It is co-produced by CBS Studios, MTV Entertainment Studios, Party Over Here, and Titmouse. Further updates are awaited concerning the sophomore season’s production. Although a release date has yet to be announced, we can expect it to come out sometime in 2024.
2. Batso (TBA)
![daniel radcliffe tour 2023](https://thecinemaholic.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Daniel-Radcliffe-nude.jpg)
This gripping drama is based on the true story of mountain climbers Warren “Batso” Harding, played by Ethan Hawke, and Dean Caldwell, played by Radcliffe, who climbed the iconic El Capitan peak in Yosemite National Park in a single push of 28 days (supposed to be 10). Jessica Biel will play Beryl Knauth, a trailblazing climber/Warren’s ladylove. To be directed by Kyle Marvin, ‘Batso’ has been written by Eamon O’Sullivan. Ross Jacobson, Ben LeClair, and Mark Roberts serve as the producers. The film is in its pre-production phase, with details about filming and release awaited.

British actor Daniel Radcliffe , best known for playing Harry Potter , will be cast as two-time Olympic champion runner Seb Coe in an upcoming film, according to reports.
“Gold” will tell the story of Coe’s middle-distance rivalry with fellow Brit Steve Ovett leading up to the 1980 Moscow Olympics. Coe won gold in the 1500m at the 1980 and 1984 Olympics and silver in the 800m at both Games. Ovett won gold in the 800m and bronze in the 1500m in Moscow.
It’s not yet known who will play Ovett, according to the BBC .
“I hadn’t realized how good it was until you dig into their past,” Oscar-winning screen writer Simon Beaufoy told the BBC. “They were fantastically different athletes and different people. And they rarely met ... apart from on the track -- but not very often, even on the track.”
100 Olympic storylines 100 days from Sochi
Beaufoy said they raced against each other twice before Moscow, one of them being a school cross-country meet.
Filming will reportedly begin in the United Kingdom and Russia in April.
Does Radcliffe resemble Coe? You be the judge.

It’s not the first time Radcliffe’s been compared to an Olympian.

What to watch in theaters and at home this weekend March 25-27, 2022
by Ryan Painter (KUTV)
![daniel radcliffe tour 2023 Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum star in Paramount Pictures' "THE LOST CITY."](https://kutv.com/resources/media2/16x9/full/1015/center/80/67d2ea7e-a1c4-4cf9-ab81-045b9afb7a6d-large16x9_LC20749R.jpg)
SALT LAKE CITY ( KUTV ) — It's a wonderful week to sit down and watch a film as we head into Oscar weekend. I'd recommend catching up with " CODA ," " Belfast ," " The Mitchells vs The Machines " or " West Side Story " if you're viewing as a family. " The Lost City " is the big film release of the week (it's pure escapism). However, my choice for the weekend is " Pachniko " on AppleTV+. It's glorious. But, I suspect some of you will be watching " Bridgerton " (I haven't watched it). There is room enough for both.
AppleTV Synopsis: Told in three languages – Korean, Japanese, and English — “Pachinko" is the highly anticipated drama series based on The New York Times bestselling, acclaimed novel by the same name. Epic in scope and intimate in tone, the story begins with a forbidden love and crescendos into a sweeping saga that journeys between Korea, Japan and America to tell an unforgettable story of war and peace, love and loss, triumph and reckoning.
Ryan's notes: While it’s a little early to start handing out awards, “Pachinko” might be the best series you’ll see in 2022. The first three episodes are available today. I was completely enthralled after the first episode.
Watch my interview showrunner/writer Soo Hugh below and my conversation with producers Theresa Kang Lowe and Michael Ellenberg here .
Where to watch: AppleTV+
The Lost City
Paramount Pictures Synopsis: Brilliant, but reclusive author Loretta Sage (Sandra Bullock) has spent her career writing about exotic places in her popular romance-adventure novels featuring handsome cover model Alan (Channing Tatum), who has dedicated his life to embodying the hero character, “Dash.” While on tour promoting her new book with Alan, Loretta is kidnapped by an eccentric billionaire (Daniel Radcliffe) who hopes that she can lead him to the ancient lost city’s treasure from her latest story. Wanting to prove that he can be a hero in real life and not just on the pages of her books, Alan sets off to rescue her. Thrust into an epic jungle adventure, the unlikely pair will need to work together to survive the elements and find the ancient treasure before it’s lost forever.
Ryan's notes: One look at the poster and you should know that “The Last City” doesn’t take itself too seriously. The second half of the film worked better than the first for me (minus the Brad Pitt part, which works fantastically). It’s a great for those looking to escape the realities of the world. [ Full Review ]
Where to watch: Theaters
Compartment No. 6
Sony Pictures Classics Synopsis: A young Finnish woman escapes an enigmatic love affair in Moscow by boarding a train to the arctic port of Murmansk. Forced to share the long ride and a tiny sleeping car with a larger than life Russian miner, the unexpected encounter leads the occupants of Compartment No. 6 to face major truths about human connection.
Ryan's notes: When talking about Russia, it is difficult to separate the country and its people from the war crimes that are being committed in the Ukraine. It was, for a moment, jarring to hear the accent and the language. The film, however, is a character drama that is wonderfully layered as it explores the relationship that develop between two strangers that starts horribly with a drunken first impression and winds its way to something entirely unexpected.
Bridgerton: Season 2
Netflix Synopsis : Duty, desire and scandal collide when viscount Anthony Bridgerton decides to marry, only to meet his match in his intended bride's headstrong big sister.
Where to watch: Netflix
Ewan McGregor (‘A Gentleman in Moscow') is coming for that Emmy bookend
Ewan McGregor has added another exquisite performance to his CV of contrasting characters thanks to his starring role in the Paramount+ limited series “A Gentleman in Moscow.” Based on Amor Towles ‘ book of the same name and created by Ben Vanstone , “A Gentleman in Moscow” follows McGregor as Count Alexander Ilyich Rostov, an aristocrat who returns to Russia from Paris only to find himself living in a hotel attic for decades after the October Revolution.
McGregor is always wildly entertaining, possessing distinct charm and charisma, and he employs that to great effect once more here. However, his comic abilities are matched by his dramatic ones in “A Gentleman in Moscow,” as noted by critics.
Christina Izzo ( The AV Club ) observed: “It's smart casting, then, that showrunner Ben Vanstone (‘All Creatures Great And Small’) and the powers that be chose McGregor as the eponymous gentleman, replacing the originally cast Kenneth Branagh . McGregor's Rostov has elements of Branaghian campiness-that twirled mustache looks plucked straight off Poirot's face and is complemented by a similarly over-the-top permed 'do-but all that initial extravagance and exaggeration is softened by the actor's sincere eyes and easy charm… it's McGregor's sentimental yet sophisticated turn that ultimately keeps the dance going… McGregor delicately guides the Count through the country's many political changes and the character's own internal revolutions, from entitled dandy to devoted dad, and in the process conceives a fine Russian gentleman indeed.”
David Opie ( Empire ) opined: “An aristocrat forced to languish in the world’s most opulent prison, he could have been a rather unsympathetic figure, but Ewan McGregor's magnetic performance doesn’t give you even a second to consider that. Showrunner Ben Vanstone has struck gold with a lead as talented and charming as McGregor, rarely on finer form than he is here. Tonally, the show is a big ask, blending bleak historical realism with cosy Sunday-night-style viewing, but McGregor balances these shifts with natural ease… McGregor's Count who makes the show worth watching.”
Joel Keller ( Decider ) explained: “McGregor has been around long enough for us to not be surprised by such a performance; for three decades, he's shown himself to be able to handle light material as well as dark. But with Rostov, he has to handle both at once, often in the same scene. His wistfulness over not being able to leave can happen right before a funny interaction with Nina, or his regret over a role in a duel can affect him right after he has an interesting experience at the barber shop. He makes an oligarch into a sympathetic figure, one who grows and changes with his imprisonment, and that's awfully tough to pull off.”
Our current predicted nominees for Best TV Movie/Limited Series Actor are Jon Hamm (“Fargo”), Andrew Scott (“Ripley”), Richard Gadd (“Baby Reindeer”), Tom Hollander (“Feud: Capote vs the Swans”), Matt Bomer (“Fellow Travelers”), and Tony Shalhoub (“Mr. Monk’s Last Case”). However, don’t rule out Emmy-favorite McGregor, who has five prior bids to his name.
He was first nominated in 1997 - for Best Drama Guest Actor for “ER.” He was then nominated for Outstanding Narrator in 2017 for “Highlands: Scotland’s Wild Heart.” That same year, he was cited for Best TV Movie/Limited Series Actor for “Fargo.” In 2021, he won his first Emmy for his leading role in the limited series “Halston.” He was also nominated for Best Limited Series in 2023 as a producer on “Obi-Wan Kenobi.”
He is a respected actor and is clearly well-liked by Emmy voters. The fact that two of his nominations, and his victory, came in the same category he is hoping to reap a nomination in this year is a good sign. He’s something of a limited series specialist and he could add to that record with another nomination this year.
McGregor is a household name and, thanks to his many years starring in major movies and TV roles, chiefly his turn as Obi-Wan Kenobi in “Star Wars,” he is an A-list actor. Emmy voters love nominating movie stars in this category, with the likes of Daniel Radcliffe (“Weird: The Al Yankovic Story”), Sebastian Stan (“Pam & Tommy”), Andrew Garfield (“Under the Banner of Heaven”), Colin Firth (“The Staircase”), Michael Keaton (“Dopesick”), Paul Bettany (“WandaVision”), and Hugh Grant (“The Undoing”) all receiving citations in recent years.
Specifically, voters seem to like it when actor who are renowned for iconic roles in franchises turn their focus onto smaller, more dramatic works. “Harry Potter” actor Radcliffe was nominated for “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story;” “Spider-Man” star Garfield was cited for “Under the Banner of Heaven;” and “Batman” performer Keaton picked up a bid for “Dopesick. Obi-Wan Kenobi and “Star Wars” thespian McGregor has already proven that Emmy voters like him in other projects thanks to his bids for “Fargo” and “Halston.” He could add another example here with “A Gentleman in Moscow.”
This Paramount+ show is also a period drama, a genre that is well-liked by Emmy voters in this category. Michael Shannon (“George & Tammy”), Evan Peters (“Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story”), Kumail Nanjiani (“Welcome to Chippendales”), Stan (“Pam & Tommy”), McGregor himself (“Halston”), Jeremy Pope (“Hollywood”), Sam Rockwell (“Fosse/Verdon”), and Grant (“A Very English Scandal”) have all received bids for their performances in period dramas.
