Noah will play Mr. Peel, who was originally played by Armie Hammer.

Armie announced that he would be leaving the production for “personal reasons” in April 2021 amid sexual assault accusations.

“I have loved every single second of working on The Minutes with the family I made from Steppenwolf. But right now I need to focus on myself and my health for the sake of my family. Consequently, I will not be returning to Broadway with the production,” he said at the time.

Noah will join a cast that includes Tracy, Ian Barford, Blair Brown, Cliff Chamberlain, K. Todd Freeman, Danny McCarthy, Jessie Mueller, Sally Murphy, Austin Pendleton and Jeff Still.

Last year, Noah shared some exciting news on social media.
