Variety reports that the actor will star in a revival of David Storey's In Celebration. Anna Mackmin will direct the 1969 drama, which will be produced by Sonia Friedman.
No dates, theatre or additional casting have been announced, although the industry paper speculates that a July opening at Trafalgar Studios is likely.
In Celebration, according to Variety, is a "Chekhovian-style ensemble drama about three brothers returning home for their parents' 40th wedding anniversary."
Bloom's additional film credits include "Love and Other Disasters," "Elizabethtown," "Kingdom of Heaven," "Haven," "Troy," "The Calcium Kid," "Ned Kelly," "Black Hawk Down" and "Wilde." He is a graduate of London's Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
