Katie Holmes is Bound for Broadway

Katie Holmes will reportedly make her Broadway debut in a production of Arthur Miller’s All My Sons this fall.

Back in March, Katie was still in final negotiations, but now the deal is all but certain. Producer Eric Falkenstein told OK! Magazine he thinks Katie is perfect for the part.

Katie is very well suited for the role of Ann,” he says. “There is an additional layer of soul to Ann and from the work I’ve seen of Katie, she has always impressed with multi-faceted characters. She would nail it.”

“Despite being in the spotlight and her celebrity status, the fact remains that she has a tremendous record of performances,” he says. “I think Katie is a tremendous actor. Whenever she decides to come to the stage she’ll be terrific.”

A formal announcement is expected to take place within the next 10 days.

Marie:

I’m so glad she’s NOT in Batman. She was sooo out of place in that movie. Next to Christian — she didn’t have a chance!

# 25 3cents @ 05/13/2008 at 10:23 am Agree with 2cents - she got this job the same way she got to “run the NYC marathon”. Cruise money and pressure
===================
She NEVER ran the full marathon. She knows it and so do a great many people who ran in it know it’s all LIES!!

#31, I too thought she was terrible in Batman am glad she didn’t revive it. She ruined the movie for me in fact. Saw no acting, nothing. Wonder where did this director or producer see her ‘multifacet’ acting.

THE DIRECTOR OF THIS PLAY BETTER GET USE TO TOM TAKING
OVER… AND WHEN THE PLAY OPENS IT WILL BE A KATIE HOLMES
PLAY…

SO IT WILL BE FUN TO SEE ALL THE FUSS ABOUT KATIE IN THE
FALL IT IS LIKE JENNFER GARNER WHEN SHE DID HER PLAY
LAST YEAR…

maybe TC is buying her a theatre.

maybe TC is buying her a theatre

the shitologist threatened the director just like they did withteh paramount folks with tom…ahahah pathetic..please stop this insane cult tatics, so not support thier m adness, spend your money taking your kids to the library or something..or buy them a bike to ride to the library..hjaja

Please dont ever compare Jen Garner to this RoBoHo…Garner deserves much better.,..she is a kick **** lady with a stable NORMAL family and a ridicullously WELL adjusted HAPPY kid with a beautiful name to boot….

How insulting….KH fans you might do better comparing Holmes to the low level gold diggers in hollywiers, even Paris Hilton has a job adn serious cash flow coming in, which is more than I can say for your RoBoHo

She ran that marathon, folks. You’d think that after months of scrutiny with NO eveidence and even officials pokespeople backing her, you’d realize that she ran the marathon.

I think she’ll do great in the play.

that’s right, there IS no evidence that she ran the marathon. Just
another illusion money can buy.

From what he’s seen she has had great performances? On stage? So, does that mean she didn’t have to try out for the part?

I think the producer was referring to her film and TV work and then Holmes auditioned for him

American,

If you think those in the organizing committee of the NY marathon would come out and admit that Katie’s participation was bought, you must be incredibly naive.

By the way, had TC not jumped Oprah couch I would never have noticed KH. She turned me off to her acting completely in Batman. Basically, she has neither beauty nor talent nor charisma. All TC money hasn’t helped her fashion ambition either.

It seems like Just Jared cannot understand English. Nothing in the statement made by the producer implied that she is joining the play, infact in the 3rd paragraph he seems to be wishing her well for the future, not welcoming her to the play.

“Whenever she decides to come to the stage she’ll be terrific.” = Good luck to her for the future.

I will be very surprised even shocked if she is a member of the cast.

It’s apparent that Katie Holmes is not a particularly talented actress by any standard, but once she married Tom Cruise her opportunities to work in films and on stage, if she wanted, were increase a 1,000 fold. It’s not about her talent but whom she married. It’s sure not how it should be or very fair . . . but then in life not much is fair . . . Seems like she might have sold her soul to the devil for more fame and profit . . . so to speak

Well said 2cent. KH seems with time to have even LESS beauty, Less charisma, Less talent , LESS style and she didn’t start out with much to begin with.
She is a declining bimbo, doesn’t look like she can even handle Suri.

She is a declining bimbo. TC can’t buy her the qualities she lacks.

KH needs to take a parenting skills class.

can the cruises please go away already? they have outstayed their welcome…..by a long time. if they are such a “happy family” and they are so content in their own company and doing such domestic things (like baking cupcakes…blah blah blah…..wtf ever), they should be more then satisified just spending time at home ALONE (where the general public doesn’t have to witness their freakish posing and posturing). they have no clue how rediculous they appear to the REAL world.

Katie did Dawson’s Creek and a few low budget, no-name VHS movies. That makes her a great candidate! The only reason she’s in magazines or on Justjared is because of who she married. Nothing more. No one even knew who she was before all the public display of kissing with her and Tom.
She’s a gold digger.

Yes, #43. There could be this elaborate conspiracy or…she ran the marathon! Why is that so hard to believe?

#52, you must be new to the internet or at the very least to JJ. The whole marathon scandal was picked apart, so you need to google it yourself and read the facts.
NOTHING about katies participation adds up, even hard core marathoners chimed in on the simple fact that you CANNOT run a 26 mile marathon 1) without a bra, and not have your nipples bleeding and fall off 2) run a marathon and be photographed in high heels a couple hours later…and thats JUST for starters

so educate yourself and google. get all the facts, then make your own decision

Scientology project. BOYCOTT!

“Yes, #43. There could be this elaborate conspiracy or…she ran the marathon! Why is that so hard to believe?”

Maybe since everything directly and indirectly involving Scientology is fake and dishonest, just as you are.

“American”, change your nickname to American Freak, that’s more appropriate, since you are a member of the Cult. You don’t fool anyone here. You are very transparent.

Yeah. It was picked apart and guess what? No eveidence of cheating! None at all! Spokespeople had to even come out and defend her. No way could they have covered everything up. There are cameras and witnesses everywhere. It’s strange about the bra and hugh heels things but that’s not evidence now is it?

I’m not a Scientologist.

Well we all know what spokespeople will say–whatever their payee commanded. Who are the witnesses? Paid spokespersons? Camera every yet only caught picture of KH at two points–somewhere in the line and at the end of the line. Let’s see more pictures then, good if some showing her soaking in sweat.

You said ‘no EVIDENCE of cheating’ and we say ‘no EVIDENCE of honest running’. Show your evidence, witnesses and let us judge how credible they are. Then maybe you’ll win this case. Although I doubt it would make your KH talented, beautiful, charismatic and stylish, or your TC taller, less creepy, less manipulative, less calculated, less greedy and less fake (of his gayness).

You are not a Scientologist American, just a paid employee of TC. Keep earning your worth.

American is a Freak @ 05/13/2008 at 10:16 pm

“american” : “I’m not a Scientologist.”

Yes, you are. And you are a liar as well, like all cult nuts.

Glad for Katie! Go you girl, ignore all these stinking bigots!!!

Glad for Katie? I feel sorry for Arthur Miller! Such a character like Ann Deever needs to be played by somebody who has the capability to do it. And Katie Holmes does not have it. She is a pale, plain actress…I even loathe myself to call her an actress, she is a tv-star. She can not and will not conquer the big screen, let alone the stage.

Joan Allen, talk to the Broadway director, please…..don’t let him ruin the play!

Stinking bigots? Think, masha. Think for one cent, then we talk again!
