Alfred Molina, who played Mexican muralist Diego Rivera opposite Salma Hayek’s Frida Kahlo in the 2002 bio-drama “Frida,” went on to portray abstract expressionist painter Mark Rothko in the original 2009 London production of John Logan’s “Red.”

The two-character play went on to win six Tony Awards including best play in 2010, and Molina returned to the Rothko role nearly a decade later for a staging that was filmed for a 2019 installment of the PBS series “Great Performances.” It’s free to stream through May 27 at pbs.org.
