George Clooney teases potential London run for hit Broadway play Good Night, and Good Luck.

Hollywood star and now successful Broadway actor George Clooney may be bringing his acclaimed stage play Good Night, and Good Luck to the West End stage.

George Clooney appeared on Late Night with Seth Meyers on Monday night (2 June 2025) and talked about a possible tour – and West End run – for the play.

Clooney told Meyers: “There’s going to be a roadshow for it, and I think it might end up in London, but it won’t be the same thing as what we’re doing now.”

There’s no news on dates or a West End theatre for the possible London production.

Clooney’s Broadway show is set to be broadcast live on CNN this Saturday 7 June 2025 at 7pm (US Eastern Standard Time), in a Broadway first.

The penultimate performance of the play will be broadcast live, with also special coverage airing before and after the show focusing on the themes of the production, including the current state of journalism.

Following the live CNN broadcast, the performance is expected to be available to stream, although details are to be announced, including whether it will be available to UK audiences.
