George Clooney’s ‘Good Night, and Good Luck’ Recoups $9.5 Million Broadway Investment


George Clooney's play "Good Night, and Good Luck" has recouped its entire production costs after seven weeks on Broadway.

Just a few blocks away, “Othello,” featuring Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal, has also been breaking records as the highest grossing play revival and recouped its $9 million investment after nine weeks. Meanwhile “Succession” actor Sarah Snook is leading “The Picture of Dorian Gray” and her on-screen brother Kieran Culkin is starring in “Glengarry Glen Ross” opposite Bob Odenkirk and Bill Burr. In Variety’s review, Frank Rizzo praised Clooney’s Broadway bow, writing the actor “has a deeply felt command of character and a riveting presence.” He added, “this transfer from screen to stage is as intense and laser-focused as the penetrating gaze coming from its star.”
