Morgan Spector Replaces Santino Fontana in A View from the Bridge

Morgan Spector will assume the role of Rodolpho in the Broadway revival of Arthur Miller’s A View from the Bridge. He replaces Santino Fontana, who sustained an onstage injury last week. Spector, his understudy, began playing the role on January 7 and will continue through the end of the run. The revival, which stars Liev Schreiber and Scarlett Johansson, is scheduled to open at the Cort Theatre on January 24, directed by Gregory Mosher.

"It comes with a great deal of sadness that I make the decision to not return to this production,” Fontana said in a statement. “Knowing that I would not be fully recovered and able to return until after opening, I've chosen to withdraw with great respect to my fellow actors and to my own health."

“Morgan made a seamless transition into the ensemble last week,” Mosher said in a statement. “Santino is a wonderful actor; we’ll miss him and we are tremendously grateful for his selflessness in this difficult situation. But I have every confidence in Morgan, and am looking forward to the rest of the run."

Spector’s stage credits include Enemies: A Love Story at the Wilma Theater, the national tour of The Lion King and A Christmas Carol at ACT. His film and television credits include The Last Airbender, Law & Order: Criminal Intent and HBO’s How to Make It in America. A View from the Bridge marks his Broadway debut.
