Tag: Matthew Broderick

As is his tradition, Jimmy Kimmel hosted his post-Oscars show on ABC following the annual film awards celebration.

Lots of funny stuff with perhaps the best served up by Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick reuniting as their “The Producers” characters with a new scheme to bilk millions from old ladies and using Donald Trump as the frontman for the job.

The original musical focuses on two Broadway producing con-artists who plot to create a show guaranteed to fail so that they can present it as the next big hit and abscond with the investment funding and profits. In Kimmel’s take, Lane and Broderick are political consultants with a similar plan to profit off the fundraising for a doomed candidate, and they realize that Trump is exactly the kind of “train-wreck, gold-plated nincompoop,” they’re looking for.
