This week it was reported that Bradley Cooper is returning to Broadway this fall in the latest revival of The Elephant Man. Cooper previously performed the lead role in this play during a limited run in summer 2012 at the Williamstown Theatre Festival in the Berkshire Mountains of Massachusetts.
The Elephant Man is based on the real-life story of John Merrick, a severely disfigured 19th-century Englishman who struggled to live with dignity while being treated as a sideshow oddity. Unlike in previous incarnations of this story, Cooper will not be in prosthetics.
So far no co-stars have been announced.
