According to The New York Post, TV host and author Bill O'Reilly has targeted the next subject for his newest biography. The political commentator, who has written books on Ronald Reagan, General Patton and THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION, is set to pen a novel on King George III, the British monarch who plays a predominant role in Broadway's Tony-winning hip hop musical, Hamilton.

Sources tell the Post that O'Reilly was overheard backstage following the Tuesday night performance, telling King George III portrayer Rory O'Malley that he is currently working on a book about the British monarch.

The source revealed that O'Reilly was impressed by the historical accuracy of Lin-Manuel Miranda's work, confirming, "O'Malley's strutting, tippy-toed portrayal of the 18th-century British royal is 'on the money."

As BWW previously reported, presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton will host a fundraising event at the show next week.
