Bryan Cranston, who won a Tony playing Lyndon B. Johnson in “All the Way” four years ago, will return to Broadway this fall in director Ivo van Hove’s acclaimed stage adaptation of “Network.”
Cranston won an Olivier Award earlier this year playing the mad-as-hell newsman Howard Beale in the video-projection-packed London production that opened at the National Theatre last November and played through March.
“Network” will begin performances on Nov. 10 at Broadway’s Cort Theatre ahead of an official opening on Dec. 6. The limited run is expected to go for 18 weeks. Additional casting will be announced shortly.
