Hadestown: The Musical Film Trailer Released Ahead of Summer Theater Run

The Hadestown film is officially on its way to the big screen. A trailer for the professionally shot capture of the acclaimed musical has just dropped, giving audiences a first look at the production ahead of its theatrical debut.

The movie is a filmed live performance that was captured during a West End run in London, reuniting the original Broadway cast members. Reeve Carney takes on the role of Orpheus, with Andre De Shields as Hermes, Amber Gray as Persephone, Eva Noblezada as Eurydice, and Patrick Page as Hades.

The film had its initial premiere at the 2026 Tribeca Film Festival and will expand to theaters this summer for a limited engagement.

Hadestown's distinctive sound weaves together American folk music with jazz influences rooted in New Orleans, creating a fresh take on classical mythology. The narrative centers on two interconnected romances: the passionate connection between young lovers Orpheus and Eurydice, alongside the relationship between underworld ruler Hades and his queen Persephone. The production guides viewers through an unforgettable expedition into the depths of the underworld and the struggle to escape it.

The original Broadway cast members came together for an exclusive West End limited run in February and March 2025, marking their first reunion six years after the show's initial Broadway opening.

Off-stage, Carney and Noblezada's connection blossomed during their time performing in the musical on Broadway. The two married in October 2025 and have since collaborated on other theatrical projects, including a London production of Cabaret. Currently, both are performing together on Broadway in an adaptation of The Great Gatsby.

Hadestown: The Musical will play in theaters for five nights only, beginning July 24th.
