His songs have been omnipresent in other iconic movies such as The Deer Hunter, Dirty Dancing, Mrs. Doubtfire, Conspiracy Theory and The Wanderers. As many as 200 artists have done cover versions of Valli's "Can't Take My Eyes off You," from Nancy Wilson's jazz treatment to Lauryn Hill's hip-hop makeover.

Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons have sold more than 100 million records worldwide. They continue to tour throughout the U.S. and abroad to packed houses receiving nightly standing ovations from thrilled fans of multiple generations.

Valli's long-lasting career has led to the overwhelming success of the Broadway musical JERSEY BOYS, which chronicles Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons' incredible career and features all of their greatest hits.

The Broadway juggernaut, which opened on Broadway in 2005, has been now been seen by more than 18 million people worldwide. It currently boasts six companies: Broadway, London, Las Vegas, U.S. national tour, The Netherlands and Asia tours. In 2006, JERSEY BOYS won four Tony Awards® including Best Musical and Best Cast Album. In 2009, it won the Olivier Award for Best New Musical, and as of April 9, 2014, it will be the 13th longest running show in Broadway history.

In 2014, Valli's life story will once again be featured, this time in the film adaptation of JERSEY BOYS, directed by Academy Award®-winning director Clint Eastwood. The film is set to be released by Warner Brothers June 20, 2014 and is executive produced by Bob Gaudio and Frankie Valli. Valli has also signed on for Rob Reiner's next romantic comedy, And So It Goes, where he will co-star alongside Michael Douglas and Diane Keaton.
