Tom Holland To Star In Jamie Lloyd’s West End Production Of ‘Romeo & Juliet’
Tom Holland will tackle the Bard this spring when he plays Romeo in director Jamie Lloyd's West End production of Romeo & Juliet.
Additional casting, including Juliet, was not announced, nor whether the production will follow the path of other Lloyd hits – including the pared-down stagings of A Doll’s House starring Jessica Chastainand Betrayal with Tom Hiddleston, Charlie Cox and Zawe Ashton, to name two – with an eventual move to Broadway. Holland, though best known for his leading role in the Spider-Man film franchise and, more recently, as the star of the Apple TV+ limited series The Crowded Room, actually got his show business start on the stage, when at age 11 he landed a supporting part in the West End production of Billy Elliot: The Musical. “Tom Holland is one of the greatest, most exciting young actors in the world,” Lloyd said in a statement today.
