An agreement has just been reached between Rudinplay and the Harper Lee Estate regarding the new Aaron Sorkin penned stage adaptation of To Kill a Mockingbird. The play will go forward as scheduled, opening at Broadway's Shubert Theatre in December.

The Broadway-bound production of To Kill a Mockingbird has been in legal trouble for some time, but answers may be coming soon. Yesterday an Alabama court judge granted Scott Rudin's request for an expedited trial and agreed to move the adjudication to the Southern New York circuit. The two-week trial is scheduled to begin June 4.

This week a federal court judge in New York City elevated the ongoing drama between Broadway producer Scott Rudin and the estate of late novelist, Harper Lee.

Will Aaron Sorkin's stage adaptation of To Kill A Mockingbird make its premiere in front of a federal judge? If producer Scott Rudin has his day in court, that just may be the case.

According to the New York Times, Harper Lee's estate is trying to kill To Kill a Mockingbird- the play version, that is.

Actor Jeff Daniels stopped by LIVE WITH KELLY AND RYAN this morning to discuss his return to the Broadway stage in the upcoming production of TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD.
