Sunset Boulevard and Evita director Jamie Lloyd wowed London critics and audiences last year with the Shakespeare adaptation, nominated for four Standard Theatre Awards including best director for Lloyd, best actor for Hiddleston and best actress for Atwell. Last week, the show was nominated for four Critics' Circle Awards. Hiddleston has collaborated with Lloyd before in the Harold Pinter's Betrayal, which premiered in the British capital and transferred to Broadway in 2019. It later scored four Tony Award noms, including best actor for the Loki and Night Manager star.

"The chemistry between the two of them was palpable from the first rehearsal and I could sense it was a magical pairing for the ages. It's an honor to bring their joyous performances in Shakespeare's beloved comedy to Broadway this fall." Hiddleston added: "For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to play Benedick in Much Ado About Nothing. Working Jamie Lloyd and Hayley Atwell on Shakespeare's most warm-hearted play has been one of the most fulfilling experiences of my performing life. I could not be more thrilled to bring this jubilant and joyous production to Broadway. Jamie Lloyd has anchored Shakespeare's profoundlyromantic poetry and comedy at the heart of this production, and decorated the play with music, dancing, love, and laughter. It's an honor to have been invited back to the stage in New York." Atwell said it is a "huge honor" to make her Broadway debut as Beatrice. "We're thrilled new audiences will experience this story through Jamie's innovative direction. This is a modern celebration of universal themes."
