Overview
- Bleecker Street’s Crosswalk and LD Entertainment announced Thursday that they acquired rights in North America and other English-speaking markets and set July 24, 2026 for the theatrical rollout, with a U.K. date to follow.
- The filmed version, titled Hadestown: The Musical, was shot in London’s West End and directed for the screen by Brett Sullivan of Steam Motion and Sound.
- The capture reunites original Broadway leads Reeve Carney, André De Shields, Amber Gray, Eva Noblezada, and Patrick Page with the current West End ensemble.
- Playbill reports the film draws from three performances recorded during the 2025 limited engagement at London’s Lyric Theatre with the returning principals.
- Crosswalk and LD position this as the first in a planned series of stage live-captures, expanding event cinema—limited theatrical runs of filmed shows—after box-office wins like Stray Kids: The dominATE Experience and Waitress.
