Lin Manuel Miranda is set to make his Broadway comeback with a new musical, "New York, New York," after a 7-year break since "Hamilton."
The musical, which was based on Martin Scorsese's hit film in 1977 of the same name, will hit the marquees in March 2023.
The cast for the upcoming production is yet to be announced, but theatre giants are already lined up to beef up the crew behind the stage.

Deadline initially reported the news of the new Lin Manuel Miranda musical, "New York, New York," in which he would be writing new songs for the show, apart from the John Kander and Fred Ebb songs already included in the film.
Based on the report, the musical will be based "loosely" on Martin Scorsese's "New York, New York," which was released in the late 1970s.
Apart from this, Liza Minelli and Robert DeNiro's characters would not be returning to the stage in the 2023 production, according to the publication.
Like "Hamilton," which took place in New York, and "In The Heights" in Washington Heights, "New York, New York," based solely on its name, will be taking place in the Big Apple post-war in 1946.
Although the cast has yet to be announced, based on the last actors who played the role, it seemed like big shoes needed to be filled in.
