Will Keen on Playing Vladimir Putin in ‘Patriots’ on Broadway: ‘The Sign of a Great Liar Is the Ability to Lie to Oneself’
The actor, known for his work on "His Dark Materials," brings his portrayal of the Russian president to Broadway in "Patriots."
“Patriots” centers on Boris Berezovsky, the oligarch who helped Putin rise to power, onlyto find his creation not to be the puppet he expected. Keen takes Putin on a journey from seemingly naive protégé to master manipulator — leaving audiences to wonder how much he changed or if he had been hiding his true nature all along. The Broadway production comes with original director Rupert Goold and stars Michael Stulhbarg as Berezovsky — taking over the role from Tom Hollander.
