The actor will play one of a pair of warring movie producers in the show, which will debut in New York in November.
The play, which is currently receiving rave reviews in London - where Kevin Spacey and Jeff Goldblum play the leads, last hit Broadway in 1988, when it was nominated for a Tony Award, with Madonna playing the female lead Keren.

Barbra Streisand has denied she cancelled a planned appearance at Israel’s 60th anniversary celebrations as a snub to US President George W Bush.
The singer was scheduled to sing at the event, hosted by the country’s president Shimon Peres, in Jerusalem next month, where she was expected to perform a rendition of Hebrew prayer Avinu Malkeinu (Our Father Our King).
