“The Great Gatsby has always been a story incredibly close to my heart, and I couldn’t be more excited about bringing this new adaptation to life in London’s West End,” Regé-Jean shared in a statement.

He also called the new version “electric, glamorous, deeply romantic, utterly heartbreaking, and its profound insight into the past couldn’t be more relevant to our current tumultuous 2020s.”

For the production, Regé-Jean will reunite with director Michael Longhurst, who he previously worked with on a 2013 stage production of The History Boys at Sheffield’s Crucible Theatre.

”I’ve been looking for the right thing to do on stage for years, and this piece’s delicate balance of spectacle and real human intimacy is something Mike [Longhurst] and I have always looked to excite and move audiences with. After we read it, we just both said: ‘My God, it’s perfect. We have to do it,’” the actor shared.

Coming up, Regé-Jean will be seen on the big screen with Halle Bailey in the rom-com You, Me & Tuscany – Check out the trailer!

It was also recently announced that Regé-Jean will star in Hancock Park for Netflix, a new erotic thriller TV series.
