Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal Set to Star in Broadway's 'Othello' Spring 2025

The highly anticipated production, directed by Tony Award winner Kenny Leon, marks a significant return to the stage for both actors.

Denzel Washington will portray Othello, while Jake Gyllenhaal will take on the role of Iago in the spring 2025 Broadway revival of Shakespeare's 'Othello'.
The production will be directed by Kenny Leon, a Tony Award winner known for his work on 'A Raisin in the Sun' and 'Fences'.
This marks a return to Broadway for both Washington and Gyllenhaal, who have previously received critical acclaim for their stage performances.
The role of Desdemona, Othello's wife, has yet to be cast, and the specific Shubert Theatre location for the production remains to be announced.
The revival of 'Othello' is expected to be one of the hottest tickets of the 2024-2025 theater season, given the star power of Washington and Gyllenhaal.
