Lena Hall, who won a Tony Award for her performance as Yitzhak in Hedwig and the Angry Inch—and took on the title role at select performances of the national tour—has landed her first television series.
The Broadway alum has just landed a role in TNT’s upcoming Snowpiercer. She joins the previously reported fellow Tony winner Daveed Diggs (Hamilton) in the television reboot of the 2013 film.
The two will be joined by Jennifer Connelly, Mickey Sumner, Alison Wright, Roberto Urbina, Katie McGuinness, Benjamin Haigh, Annalise Basso, Sasha Frolova, and Suan Park.
Hall has previously appeared on the screen in Girls and Good Girls Revolt. In addition to Hedwig and the Angry Inch, her Broadway credits include Kinky Boots, Tarzan, 42nd Street, and Cats.
