Cheno Headed Back To Broadway!
Filed under: Broadway Babies > Scarlett Johansson > Kristin Chenoweth
YES!
Kristin Chenoweth is going to be starring in the upcoming production of Promises, Promises opposite Will and Grace's Sean Hayes.
Scarlett Johansson was rumored to be considered for the part of Fran, but we're thrilled that the producers chose the amazingly talented Cheno!
It's going to be a bit of a darker role than we're used to seeing her in. The character of Fran is a suicidal secretary in love with her married boss who treats her like crap!
We love her on TV, but we're so happy she's getting back to her roots to belt out the tunes once again on the Great White Way!

What a great dress!!! Luvs it!
Is that a recent pic? She looks terrible. Flabby and undernourished.
The Great White Whale? Wasn't that your nickname in elementary school, Perezeritolicious?
Well, I am one of the few who "got" and miss Pushing Daisies, but was thrilled by her
Emmy victory. I saw her twice in Wicked and loved her, great voice and great comic timing. She is just the type of name draw this musical needs. I may go down and see it. I am familiar with The Apartment and know a few of the songs from Dionne Warwicks's versions. I never knew about this musical.
It would have been such an injustice if they would have picked ScarJo over her. Yay Kristin Chenoweth!
yay! i LOVE her!!
so talented.
Re: ap076 – i looooved Pushing Daisies. Excellent show. I was unhappy when i found out that it wasn't coming back on the air.
Love her! How ’bout the big screen next?
can you say A-N-O-R-E-X-I-A ? ?
she is ADORABLE. loved her in Pushing Daiseys even though I thought the show was a bit much. look forward to seeing her succeed.
Congrats to Kristin. She's awesome!
