Teri Hatcher will take over the lead role from October until 6 February 2027, according to People.
Hatcher made her musical debut as Sally Bowles in the national tour of Sam Mendes’ revival of Cabaret. She recently played Morticia Addams in the film The Addams Family.
According to Wikipedia, Teri Lynn Hatcher is an American actress best known for her portrayal of Lois Lane on the television series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (1993–1997).
She also played Paris Carver in the James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies (1997), Mel Jones and the Beldam in Coraline (2009) and Susan Mayer on the television series Desperate Housewives (2004–2012), for which she won a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy and three Screen Actors Guild Awards (one as lead female actor, two as part of Best Ensemble), and was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series.
Hatcher was born on December 8, 1964, in Palo Alto, California, the only child of Esther Beshur, a computer programmer who worked for Lockheed Martin, and Owen Walker Hatcher Jr., a nuclear physicist and electrical engineer. Her father is of English, some Irish and Scottish ancestry, while her mother is of one half Syrian and one half Frisian ancestry.
Hatcher took ballet lessons at the San Juan School of Dance in Los Altos and grew up in Sunnyvale, California. At De Anza College she studied mathematics and engineering.
In March 2006, she alleged that she was sexually abused from the age of five by Richard Hayes Stone, an uncle by marriage who was later divorced by Hatcher's aunt. She said her parents were unaware of the abuse. In 2002, she assisted Santa Clara County prosecutors with their indictment of Stone for a more recent sexual offense that led his female victim to die by suicide at 14. Stone pleaded guilty to four counts of child sexual abuse and was sentenced to 14 years in prison. Hatcher said she told the prosecutors about her own abuse because she was haunted by thoughts of the 14-year-old girl who shot herself, and feared Stone might escape conviction. Stone died of colon cancer on August 19, 2008, after serving six years of his sentence.
