“We’re going to start shooting it this summer,” revealed Parsons of the HBO project. “It will have very different cast members, although I will be playing Tommy [Boatwright] again.” The actor also revealed that while Joe Mantello, who helmed the 2011 Broadway production, will be in the film, he will not be directing.
He also reviled that the HBO movie will be the full play, and that the story will be more fleshed out. Larry also rewrote some parts, but it is still the same general story.

The Big Bang Theory star Jim Parsons and Friday Night Lights alum Taylor Kitsch will co-star opposite Julia Roberts, Mark Ruffalo and Matt Bomer in The Normal Heart, HBO’s original movie adaptation of the Tony-winning Larry Kramer play, which is being written by Kramer and directed by Ryan Murphy.
The project tells the story of the onset of the HIV-AIDS crisis in New York City in the early 1980s.
Jim Parsons plays gay activist Tommy Boatwright, reprising his role from the 2011 Broadway revival. He was previously attached to Murphy’s adaptation when it was eyed as a theatrical feature.
Kitsch plays Bruce Niles, a closeted investment banker who becomes a prominent AIDS activist.
Roberts plays Emma Brookner, the paraplegic physician who treats several of the earliest victims of the disease. Ruffalo plays Ned Weeks, who witnesses first-hand the mysterious disease that has begun to claim the lives of many in his gay community and starts to seek answers. Bomer plays Felix Turner, a reporter who becomes Ned’s lover.
Murphy executive produces with Jason Blum, Dede Gardner and Dante Di Loreto. Production is slated to begin later this year in New York City for a 2014 debut. [X]
