The iconic 1987 vampire film 'The Lost Boys' is set to take a bite out of Broadway as it transforms into a stage musical. The horror-comedy that redefined vampire lore with its stylish and sexy approach, made famous by stars like Kiefer Sutherland and directed by Joel Schumacher, is being revived with a musical adaptation. The project assembles a talented crew including 'It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia's' David Hornsby as writer, director Michael Arden—a 2023 Tony Award winner, and tunes by indie pop-rock band The Rescues, known for their music featured in 'The Umbrella Academy' and 'Pretty Little Liars'. With a production team backed by names such as Patrick Wilson, there's considerable talent and enthusiasm behind bringing the vampire classic to the stage. The original film's success, grossing over $32 million against an $8.5 million budget, and its cult status, suggests that the musical could attract a diverse audience ranging from horror enthusiasts to Broadway regulars. nWho is directing the musical adaptation of The Lost Boys?
