Hadestown Parts Ways With Geno Segers After Online Backlash

The long-running Broadway musical "Hadestown" has parted ways with actor Geno Segers, who was announced earlier this week to play Hades in the show's new principal cast, after the casting drew backlash online. Producers Mara Isaacs, Dale Franzen, Hunter Arnold, and Tom Kirdahy announced the new principal cast earlier this week, with Segers set to take on the role of Hades. The news quickly drew criticism on social media. Segers will no longer be part of the Broadway production. Segers' previous stage credits include "On the Town" and "The Lion King," and he has appeared on television in "Banshee." No reason for the split was given.
