Is ILM Headed To Broadway?

Posted By Mike on June 29, 2008

See the blurb below from the gossip section of the New York Daily News website regarding a possible ILM venture on Broadway.

"George Lucas could be bound for Broadway. We hear Whoopi Goldberg has been talking with Lucas' Industrial Light and Magic about collaborating on "Bricktop — Queen of the Night." Whoopi recently teamed with producers Paul Lambert and Jonas Neilson on the musical about the fabled Parisian cabaret owner, Ada (Bricktop) Smith. Lucas "could do things Broadway has never seen before," a source tells us. "They're talking about playing with Cubist images and jazz from the '20s."'


As always, we'll keep you posted if we hear anything official.

UPDATE: Ed Dolista, of the Indy Cast, noticed our post above and sent over the following:

"Actually there have been rumors for a while that Jim Steinman has been in talks with ILM to bring the effects of Bat out Hell Musical to the West End.

So it looks like they’d be on both sides of the globe…."



Thanks to Ed for the update!
