Sarah Hyland (Modern Family, Little Shop of Horrors) will succeed Tony nominee Eva Noblezada as Daisy Buchanan in the Broadway musical adaptation The Great Gatsby.

Beginning performances February 10, 2025, Hyland will star opposite the previously announced Ryan McCartan (Wicked, Frozen) as Jay Gatsby, who begins performances January 21, 2025. The musical’s original stars, Tony nominee Jeremy Jordan (Newsies, Smash) and Noblezada (Hadestown, Miss Saigon) will play their final performances as Jay and Daisy on January 19 and January 30, respectively.

Hyland made her Broadway debut in Grey Gardens as a young Jackie Bouvier, and returned to the New York stage earlier this year as Audrey in the hit Off-Broadway revival of Little Shop of Horrors. This year, she was honored with the first-ever Variety Courage Award at the magazine’s Power of Women gala, for her work as an advocate for domestic abuse survivors and animal welfare.
