George Clooney is poised to make his Broadway debut in a stage adaptation of his 2005 journalism drama *Good Night, and Good Luck*.
This upcoming play, based on his second directorial endeavor, is set to premiere in the spring of 2025. In a shift from his original role as Fred W Friendly, Clooney will now embody the character of Edward R Murrow.
Clooney's recent acting endeavors include the romantic comedy *Ticket to Paradise*, where he stars opposite Julia Roberts, as well as an uncredited cameo in *The Flash*.
He is also slated to appear alongside Brad Pitt in the crime thriller *Wolfs*, and in an untitled Noah Baumbach comedy alongside Adam Sandler, Laura Dern, and Jim Broadbent.
On the directorial front, Clooney's latest project was an adaptation of the depression-era sports drama *The Boys in the Boat*.
This development follows the recent announcement that Robert Downey Jr. will also be making his Broadway debut in an upcoming production by Ayad Akhtar.
The previous Broadway season featured debuts from other notable Hollywood actors such as Steve Carell and Rachel McAdams, with McAdams receiving a Tony nomination for her performance.
