The movie actress Emma Stone (“The Amazing Spider-Man,” “The Help”) has pulled out of the planned Broadway revival of “Cabaret,” in which she was expected to make her Broadway debut in early 2014 as Sally Bowles opposite the Tony Award-winner Alan Cumming as the M.C. Ms. Stone’s publicist said on Thursday that the actress now has scheduling conflicts with a feature film that prevent her from joining the musical, which Roundabout Theater Company is planning to mount at one of its Broadway theaters, Studio 54.

Ms. Stone’s withdrawal is fairly sudden: She was still attached to “Cabaret” as recently as last week, according to two theater producers who were not working on the revival but are familiar with plans for the show.

A spokesman for Roundabout, meanwhile, confirmed for the first time on Thursday that the “Cabaret” revival was indeed in the works – it had yet to be officially announced – and that the Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes would stage the revival, with Rob Marshall as co-director and choreographer. The two men collaborated similarly on an earlier Roundabout revival of “Cabaret” that ran from 1998 to 2004. Mr. Cumming and Natasha Richardson won Tonys for their performances as the M.C. and Sally in that production.

The theater spokesman, asked about Ms. Stone, said in a statement, “Roundabout is in the casting phase and exploring if the production can come together with the most ideal cast.”

“Cabaret” originally opened on Broadway in 1966 and won the Tony for best musical and best score for the composer John Kander and the lyricist Fred Ebb, among several other awards. The show has a book by Joe Masteroff, based on writings by Christopher Isherwood.
