Jeremy Jordan to Take Over the Role of Bobby Darin in Just In Time on Broadway

Jeremy Jordan will take over the role of Bobby Darin in the biomusical Just In Time on Broadway. His first performance at the Circle In The Square Theatre will be on April 21, 2026. He replaces Tony winner Jonathan Groff, who plays his final performance on March 29, 2026.

Jordan earned a Tony nomination in 2012 for his breakout role as Jack Kelly in Disney’s Newsies The Musical. Most recently, he originated the role of Jay Gatsby in The Great Gatsby on Broadway in 2024, earned a 2025 Tony nomination for playing the title role in Floyd Collins and subsequently returned to Gatsby, where he is currently starring through March 7. Jordan's other Broadway credits include West Side Story, Rock of Ages, Bonnie & Clyde, Waitress and American Son, as well as Little Shop of Horrors off-Broadway. Onscreen, he co-starred alongside Anna Kendrick in the 2014 film adaptation of the Jason Robert Brown musical The Last Five Years and was featured in the second season of the NBC musical series Smash.

“I'm absolutely thrilled to welcome Jeremy Jordan to Just In Time—his talent, charisma, and emotional fearlessness make him the perfect artist to step into the role of Bobby Darin,” director Alex Timbers said in a statement. “We're excited to tailor the show to Jeremy's many gifts and make a version of the show unique to him. Watching Jeremy bring Bobby’s swagger, vulnerability, and musical brilliance to life on Broadway is going to be electric, and I can’t wait for audiences to experience it.”

Developed and directed by Tony winner Timbers, Just In Time invites audiences to experience the music and life of the '50s and '60s singer Bobby Darin—from soaring highs to crushing lows—featuring a live on-stage band performing such hits as “Beyond the Sea,” “Splish Splash,” “Dream Lover” and “Mack the Knife.” The current cast includes Sarah Hyland, Sadie Dickerson, Tony winner Michele Pawk, Emily Bergl, Joe Barbara, Lance Roberts, Caesar Samayoa, Claire Camp, Christine Cornish, Julia Grondin, Valeria Yamin, John Treacy Egan, Tari Kelly, Matt Magnusson, Khori Michelle Petinaud and Larkin Reilly.
