NEW YORK, N.Y. – The original Captain Hook is coming back to “Finding Neverland” on Broadway.

Producers said Thursday that Kelsey Grammer will rejoin “Glee” star Matthew Morrison in the new musical at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre for seven weeks beginning Jan. 19.

“Finding Neverland” is an adaptation from the 2004 whimsical film about a widow whose four young sons inspired J.M. Barrie to write the children’s classic “Peter Pan.”

Grammer once again will play both the American theatrical producer Charles Frohman and a fearsome Hook. He left the show this summer and the role was taken over by Anthony Warlow and Terrence Mann.

Grammer, a five-time Emmy Award winner, earned a Tony Award nomination for his work in “La Cage aux Folles” and is best known for the TV sitcom “Frasier.”
