Steven Spielberg Headed To Broadway

Quick, random note: Steven Spielberg’s Catch Me If You Can is headed to Broadway. Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman are adapting Catch into a musical, with Nathan Lane starring as FBI agent Carl Hanratty Jr. The idea of Lane performing in Tom Hanks‘ movie role is an interesting one. As of yet there’s no word on whether Frank Abagnale, the real life inspiration for the film, will be making any royalties from it. Yes, that’s Broadway 2007: Musical adaptations of Steven Spielberg movies are now officially out of Simpsons territory and into real life.
