Reece Weaver Debuts as Roxie Hart | Entertainment and Celebrity News

Reece Weaver, star of the Netflix Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders docuseries, has officially kicked off her Broadway debut as Roxie Hart in Chicago — and early buzz is electric. Audiences are raving about her commanding stage presence and undeniable charisma, even if they weren’t familiar with her before. While some questioned whether her fame over talent landed her the role, critics and fans alike are praising her acting and dancing chops. This move sparks debate on “stunt casting” — a trend that’s brought stars like Megan Thee Stallion and Abigail Barlow to the stage — balancing ticket sales with artistic integrity. For Weaver, it’s the dream role she’s chased, already drawing millions of social media views. Her six-week run ends October 18th, and theatergoers who missed Chicago might just be convinced to buy tickets now.
