Andrew Rannells to replace Jonathan Groff in Hamilton

Written by . Published: October 10 2015

Actor Andrew Rannells is stepping in to temporarily replace Jonathan Groff in hit Broadway musical Hamilton.


The former Glee star is taking a month-long hiatus from the historical hip-hop show and theater veteran Rannells will be taking his place.


Groff will be spending his time off shooting a TV movie to wrap up his recently canceled HBO series Looking.


Girls star Rannells has made a habit of replacing TV stars on the Great White Way - last year (14) he took over from Neil Patrick Harris in hit musical Hedwig & the Angry Inch.


Rannells will hit the stage in Hamilton from 27 October to 29 November (15), and Groff is scheduled to return on 1 December (15).
