Here's a new trailer for the HBO film "PATERNO". Again we see just a few glimpses of Ben throughout. It looks pretty intense! The film premieres April 7 on HBO, a day before "Mean Girls" formal opening on April 8. That will be quite a week for Ben!

A huge congratulations to Ben, who has been cast to play Riff in the 2020 Broadway revival of West Side Story! This stage production is completely separate from the upcoming Speilberg movie. Other BETM connections include: Daniel Oreskes as Doc, and Corey Snide in the ensemble. Congrats to all!
