Brent Lang Executive Editor of Film and MediaSamuel L. Jackson will return to Broadway in a new revival of August Wilson’s “The Piano Lesson.” He’s joined by a cast that includes “Tenet” star John David Washington and “The Peacemaker’s” Danielle Brooks.

The show is something of a family affair for Jackson. LaTanya Richardson Jackson, the actor’s wife, will direct the show. Jackson appeared in the 1990 original Broadway production, albeit in a different role.

He was last seen on the Main Stem in 2011’s “The Mountaintop.” Jackson recently received an Honorary Oscar for his long career, which includes roles in “The Avengers,” “Pulp Fiction” and “A Time to Kill.” Washington’s father, Denzel Washington, has been planning a film version of “The Piano Lesson.” Denzel Washington previously starred in the Oscar-winning adaptation of “Fences,” another Wilson play.

Washington’s credits include “BlacKkKlansman” and “Malcolm & Marie.” He will next be seen in David O. Russell’s currently untitled cinematic happening.
