Miranda Cromwell, who co-directed the London production, will direct on Broadway.

The full cast and creative team will be announced shortly. A Broadway theater has not yet been specified.

Pierce previously appeared on Broadway in “Serious Money” and “The Boys of Winter.” Clarke headlined the Roundabout Theater Company’s revival of “Caroline, or Change.” De Shields is currently appearing in “Hadestown” on Broadway. His previous credits include “The Wiz,” “Ain’t Misbehavin” and “The Full Monty.”

The Broadway revival is produced by Cindy Tolan, Elliott & Harper Productions and Kwame Kwei-Armah. The production originated at the Young Vic before transferring to the West End.

“Death of a Salesman” first opened on Broadway in 1949. Written by Arthur Miller, the play has been revived four times, most recently in 2012.
