Vanya On 42nd Street - Cast and Crew

Cast and Crew

• Shawn, Gregory, and Malle had previously collaboratorated on the 1981 film My Dinner with Andre.
• The film would be the last of Malle's career.
• Julianne Moore, whose film career had recently been gaining notice from a critically acclaimed role in Short Cuts, was the actor predominantly featured in the advertising campaign for the film. The campaign didn't highlight the ensemble nature of the production, which led some confused movie-goers to think the film was about a woman named Vanya.
• Vanya on 42nd Street also features several actors known to the New York stage, including George Gaynes (also recognizable from the hit TV series Punky Brewster), Larry Pine, Phoebe Brand, Brooke Smith, and Lynn Cohen.
