Sony Pictures Classics Acquires Worldwide Rights To Broadway’s ‘Merrily We Roll Along’ Film Starring Daniel Radcliffe, Jonathan Groff & Lindsay Mendez
Broadway musical stars Daniel Radcliffe, Jonathan Groff and Lindsay Mendez.
Directed by Maria Friedman, the musical by Stephen Sondheim and George Furth spans three decades in the lives of three longtime friends – composer Franklin (Groff), playwright Charley (Radcliffe) and writer Mary (Mendez). The musical also has presents one of Sondheim’s twistiest and most poignant tricks: Audiences witness the characters’ lives unfold backward, from their fractured adult friendships to their youthful optimism. While the musical has long been considered one of Sondheim’s most difficult to stage, the 2023-2024 Broadway revival directed by Friedman was widely praised as having conquered the show, in no small part through the acclaimed performances.
