Broadway Co-Stars Josh Gad & Andrew Rannells to Reunite For New Hulu TV Series 'Stay Tuned'


Josh Gad and Andrew Rannells are set to star in another project together!

The two actors, who have starred together on Broadway twice in the past, will reunite once again, but this time for a loose TV adaptation of the 1992 movie Stay Tuned, according to Deadline.

The series will find Josh and Andrew “trapped on the wrong side of the screen and forced to navigate their way through TV’s most binge-worthy obsessions.”

“For over a decade @andrewrannells and I have been the Laverne and Shirley of our generation (according to our mothers.) It therefore only makes sense to now do a TV series where we can literally do an episode as ‘Laverne and Shirley’ (assuming the rights to those characters aren’t prohibitively expensive and that the algorithm rewards ‘Laverne and Shirley’ viewership.)” Josh shared on Instagram.

Andrew wrote on his account, “Joshie and I are putting on a show with some new friends! We are very excited to be working with Akiva Goldsman, Greg Lessans, Jordan Cahan and HULU!”

Josh and Andrew first starred together in the hit Broadway musical The Book of Mormon as part of the original cast, which earned them both Best Actor in a Musical Tony nominations, and years later, they also starred in the 2023 Broadway production of Gutenberg! The Musical.

If you missed it, Josh is hitting the stage very soon in the star-studded Hollywood Bowl production of Jesus Christ Superstar, and he’s starring in a new movie with Ariana Grande!
