All The Actors You Can See On Broadway Right Now

Surprisingly, it looks like this action star's newest role isn't on the big screen: According to reports, Bruce Willis is heading to Broadway for Misery , a stage adaptation of Stephen King's novel of the same name. The actor will play the part of Paul Sheldon (played by James Caan in the 1990 film adaptation) a romance novelist who is kidnapped by his "number one fan" Annie Wilkes, a role made famous onscreen by Kathy Bates.

If you're not familiar with the story, it's all sorts of messed up: Sheldon, who crashes his car on the side of the road at the beginning of the film, is initially nursed back to health by Wilkes, only to have her go mad when she learns that he will kill off his romantic heroine Misery and hold him hostage.

It's an intense role for any actor — Sheldon is in constant fear of his captor and too physically injured to escape her grasp. The Broadway production will really show off what Willis can do, without any of the bells and whistles of a major film production.

Willis isn't the only big screen actor who made the leap from screen to stage. Lately it seems that a ton of actors are making moves to Broadway to show audiences just what they can do live. (Or maybe they're just in pursuit of the coveted EGOT — who knows?) So, until Willis makes his stage debut, here's all the celebrities you can see on Broadway right now, and in the near future:
