It's confirmed: Emma Stone will take over for Michele Williams as Sally Bowles in the Tony Award-winning Broadway revival of Kander and Ebb's Cabaret starring Alan Cumming.
Stone, the screen actress known for the Amazing Spider-man movies, Easy A, Zombieland and The Help, will step into the role of the Berlin chanteuse when Williams, who opened in the revival, leaves November 9.
Stone has committed to the show through February 1, 2015, but that isn't the end for this Cabaret – the musical has been extended through March 29, 2015. Cumming and co-stars Linda Emond and Danny Burstein have signed on for the length of the extended run.
This will be Stone's New York stage debut. As we related just days ago, the actress told a friend "she wants to do Broadway so bad." Wish granted.
