married couple Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig
Rachel Weisz will play in front of Daniel Craig. Rafe Spall is in final negotiations to play the ‘other’ man in the high-profile production of Harold Pinter’s Betrayal — directed by the legendary Mike Nichols — which opens in New York in October.
Weisz will make her Broadway debut in Pinter's 1978 study in deception, which charts an extramarital affair in reverse.
Her character, Emma, is married to Craig's Robert, but is having an affair with Jerry, played by rising star Rafe Spall.
James Bond star Craig last appeared on Broadway in 2009 in "A Steady Rain," where he received positive notices opposite Hugh Jackman even though the play itself did not.
The married movie stars, who wed in Stone Ridge in 2011, will join a long list of recent film celebrities to hit Broadway, including Al Pacino, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Matthew Broderick, Jessica Chastain, Robin Williams, Scarlett Johansson, Katie Holmes and Samuel L. Jackson. Others celebrities soon to make their debuts include Zooey Deschanel and Amber Tamblyn.
