Ivo van Hove's revival of Arthur Miller's All My Sons, which recently concluded an acclaimed run in London's West End, will be released in cinemas globally April 16 via National Theatre Live. (In New York, screenings will begin April 17 at Symphony Space.) Get a sneak peek at the filmed production in the video above, featuring a scene between Bryan Cranston and Paapa Essiedu.

The production at the Wyndham's Theatre, which began performances November 14, 2025, was led by Cranston as Joe Keller, Marianne Jean-Baptiste as Kate Keller, and Essiedu as Chris Keller, along with Tom Glynn-Carney as George Deever, Hayley Squires as Ann Deever, Aliyah Odoffin as Lydia Lubey, Cath Whitefield as Sue Bayliss, Richard Hansell as Dr. Jim Bayliss, and Zach Wyatt as Frank Lubey.

Charles Dark, Sammy Jones, and Zayne Tayabali shared the role of Bert, with understudies Claire Curtis-Ward, Lorna Lowe, Oliver McLellan, and John Vernon rounding out the company. Casting was by Julia Horan. The new revival featured scenic and lighting design by Jan Versweyveld, costume design by An D'Huys, and sound design by Tom Gibbons.

The production reunited Breaking Bad star Cranston with van Hove after their work on Network in the West End and on Broadway. Van Hove returned to the works of Miller after winning Olivier and Tony Awards for his London and Broadway revivals of A View From the Bridge and directing a 2016 Broadway revival of The Crucible.

Miller's first hit, All My Sons debuted to Tony-winning success on Broadway in 1947; the play follows a family haunted by the wartime loss of their son and the patriarch's troubling secret from his time building fighter engine parts. Since its original production, the work has become a stalwart of the theatre, getting Broadway revivals in 1987, 2008, and 2019; and West End revivals in 1981, 2010, and 2019.
