This revival gets better and better!! Am thrilled to learn that Cannavale is now involved. If he's anywhere near as good as he was in Mother****er, he should expect at least a Tony nom and hopefully a win.

Good casting, but isn't Bobby C. supposed to be in another show next season? Will he do both simultaneously a la Cynthia Nixon?

Not interested. He and Pacino just strike me as too similar. Will be curious to see the rest of the casting.

Hmmm...I may have to check the other thread on this revival. I think I suggested Cannavale.

So much testosterone.

Pacino as Levine is such a weird idea to begin with, and having a traditional Roma a la Bobby Cannavale opposite him is not the best idea, IMO. What's next--Catherine Zeta Jones as Mama Morton in twenty years?

Cannavale is also doing The Big Knife for Roundabout, but that doesn't start previews until March. Glengarry will only be a limited run through early January.
