The Roundabout Theatre Company has announced additional casting as well as a venue for its upcoming revival of Harold Pinter's Old Times, directed by Tony winner Douglas Hodge. Previews begin on 17 September 2015, before an official opening on 6 October 2015, for a limited engagement at the American Airlines Theatre.

Joining previously announced Golden Globe winner and Oscar nominee Clive Owen, who will be making his Broadway debut in the role of Deeley, will be Olivier Award winner and Tony nominee Eve Best as Anna, and Olivier Award nominee Kelly Reilly as Kate.

Synopsis: "Old Times is an unsettling drama of desire and blurred realities by Nobel Laureate Harold Pinter. Deeley (Owen) is a man quite looking forward to meeting Anna, his wife Kate's friend from long ago. But as the night goes on, Anna's visit quickly shifts from an ordinary sharing of memories to a quiet battle for power."

The play is the opening production of he Roundabout Theatre Company's 50th Anniversary Season.

The creative team for Old Times will be announced at a later date.

Eve Best earned two Tony nominations for her previous stints on Broadway in 'The Homecoming' and 'Moon for the Misbegotten.'

Kelly Reilly will be making her Broadway debut. She earned two Olivier Award nominations in London - in 2004 for 'After Miss Julie' and in 2008 for 'Othello.'
