The big reveal? George Clooney and Broadway legend Patti LuPone are to converse together. Yeah, that should be…something. Reactions were anywhere from skepticism to full-blown chaos. One user, @SierraBo22, didn’t hold back: “Praying for the ears of anyone having to sit through a Clooney yap session.” Ouch. Meanwhile, @_adrian_sean predicted drama: “I KNOW Patti is gonna side eye George Clooney’s new hair.”

But here comes the biggest mouth gaper. The Succession siblings have gotten back together for this. The whole internet just went berserk. @yellowdomu screamed, “the roy siblings reunited omg,” while @corneliastrwts melted down in caps lock shouting, “SARAH KIERAN SARAH KIERAN” about a billion times. Someone check on the Succession stans, for they are not okay.

Not everyone made the cut, though. @emmathelady called out missing names: “Where is @MjRodriguez7 & @JinkxMonsoon?” Fair question. @badgal_cassie was like, “Nicole Scherzinger is an actress?” Honey, we will not tolerate this Cats erasure.

There are even a bunch of theater nerds hyped about it. @Giii_014 gets it: “Broadway x Actors on Actors? Yeah, this is about to eat.” @OfficielK6 promised, “Gotta tune in, Broadway’s finest spilling the tea.”

For some odd reason, @temmi555 tagged #WrestleMania in their reply. No one knows. The internet works in mysterious ways.

This lineup has it all: primetime stars, theatre eminences, sibling reunions, and those very awkward moments. Will Patti LuPone really kill George Clooney on camera? Can the Roy siblings out-snark each other? The people demand answers.

What will definitely break the internet during these discussions is the pop and popcorn ordering reminders; maximum chaos preparation before it all falls into the theater kids’ hands. And honestly? We all live in their world now.
