Tracee Ellis Ross is set to make her Broadway debut in “Every Brilliant Thing,” taking over the production’s starring role as previous leads finish their runs. Multiple outlets report that Mariska Hargitay, who was previously announced to join the show, performs in the lead role until her run ends on Sunday, July 5. The transition follows Daniel Radcliffe’s scheduled departure earlier in the year, with Hargitay joining the production on Tuesday, May 26 after Radcliffe concludes his engagement in February.
The show is described as continuing its lineup of high-profile performers across different periods. Ross—known for television roles including “Black-ish” and “Girlfriends”—will assume the part after Hargitay’s final performance. The reported casting change reflects a staggered sequence of star turns, with each actor taking the role for a defined timeframe. Neither outlet indicates changes to the production’s creative team or storyline, focusing instead on the scheduled lead transitions.
