The Tony winner, which was adapted from the Steffano Massini play by Sam Mendes for the West End in 2018 and Broadway in 2020, tells the epic history of one of the global financial institutions that helped spark the 2008 recession. Adapted by Ben Power, the production won five Tony Awards earlier this year, including prizes for Mendes’ direction and for the lead performance of Simon Russell Beale.

Fremantle Group COO and Continental CEO Andrea Scrosati said working with talent such as Zeller is “at the heart of the Fremantle mission.”
