Rachel Zegler, known for her role in "West Side Story," attended the sold-out preview of Bradley Jaden’s new Broadway musical, "Wanted," on Thursday night at the James Earl Jones Theatre. Jaden, 39, stars in the Western-themed production as hotel owner Jesse Whitewater. Zegler, 25, was seen in the audience supporting Jaden, with sources indicating the two were recently spotted together publicly.
Following the opening performance, Zegler and Jaden joined a cast celebration held at a Levi’s store in Times Square. Witnesses described the pair as closely connected throughout the event, emphasizing Zegler’s enthusiastic support for Jaden and the show. The gathering also included other cast members such as Solea Pfeiffer, Liisi LaFontaine, and Grammy nominee Luke James.
Jaden, a British performer with extensive experience on the West End, has appeared in productions like "Wicked" and "Camelot," and most recently portrayed Inspector Javert in the "Les Misérables Arena World Tour" at Radio City Music Hall. Zegler, who recently completed a successful run on the West End, is set to take on the role of Eva Perón in Jamie Lloyd’s production of "Evita," opening at the Winter Garden Theatre on February 27.
