Theatre favorite Liev Schreiber talks about fatherhood and his children in a new PEOPLE article.

At the premiere of his new film TAKING WOODSTOCK, Schreiber told PEOPLE that he now feels "much older," after the birth of his two children. The actor continues, sharing, "I'm older physically, but spiritually much younger."

The actor shares that his oldest son has just begun to utter the words every parent wants to hear. "Sasha has learned how to say 'I love you,' " Schreiber shares. "It's unrecognizable but he does say it. Rhythmically he can kind of sound it out. It kind of sounds like 'Iwoveu,' which is very exciting."

The New York Post's Michael Riedel recently revealed in his On Broadway column in the The New York Post that Liev Schreiber is planning star in a revival of Arthur Miller's A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE directed by Gregory Mosher and due on Broadway in the spring. Schreiber will play Eddie Carbone, the Italian-American dock worker who is secretly in love with his niece.

Considered one of the great modern classics of the twentieth century, Arthur Miller's A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE, recently had a UK revival at the Duke of York's Theatre in London earlier this year. 

The story follows Eddie Carbone, a head-strong longshoreman raising his wife's orphaned niece, Catherine. When Eddie's feelings for Catherine develop from paternal protectiveness to sexual desire, his struggle to contain his emotions leads him on a path of self destruction transforming him from a respected, honorable man to a virtual stranger shamed and broken by his own actions. Intense and raw, Miller's A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE explores jealousy, betrayal, suspicion and ultimately loss of control.

The last Broadway run for 'A VIEW' was in 1997, starring Anthony LaPaglia, the production won the Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play.

Liev Schreiber recently "bared his fangs" in the X-Men spin-off Wolverine, starring fellow Tony Award-winner Hugh Jackman in the title role. Schreiber played the iconic role of Victor Creed better known to comic fans as 'Sabertooth'.
