Lee Pace Joins Nathan Lane, Andrew Garfield, and More in Broadway's Angels in America

The Pushing Daisies Emmy nominee will take on the role of Joe Pitt in the Marianne Elliott-helmed production.

Lee Pace has joined the roster for the upcoming Broadway revival of Tony Kushner's Angels in America. The Emmy nominee will play troubled Mormon Joe Pitt in the two-part production, which begins performances February 23, 2018, at the Neil Simon Theatre.

The Marianne Elliott staging crosses the pond following an acclaimed run at London's National Theatre. Pace is a new addition to the cast while the remainder of the company reprises their performances from the U.K. engagement, including Andrew Garfield as Prior Walter, Nathan Lane as Roy Cohn, and Denise Gough as Harper Pitt.

The National Theatre production featured Russell Tovey as Joe. It was reported during the Broadway transfer's initial announcement that he would not return to the role in New York.
