Ansel Elgort made a rare appearance on the red carpet for the Broadway opening of Glengarry Glen Ross on Monday, March 31.
The actor, 31, had shoulder-length hair and donned a blue suit at the premiere of the 2025 revival of the 1983 stage play, which stars Kieran Culkin, Bob Odenkirk, Bill Burr, Donald Webber Jr., and more. The play follows the lives of four unethical Chicago real estate agents.
Elgort wore a matching teal tie and carried his own camera on the red carpet.
The actor most recently starred in Max’s Tokyo Vice as an American journalist named Jake Adelstein untangling the world of Tokyo crime. The show, based on a true story, ran from 2022 to 2024, and remains his only project since making Steven Spielberg’s 2021 adaptation of West Side Story.
The actor has largely stayed out of the spotlight since 2020, when a young woman named Gabby came forward with allegations of sexual assault that occurred in 2014. The allegations came immediately ahead of the COVID-delayed release of West Side Story, in which the actor starred as the romantic lead Tony.
In the detailed written statement, previously posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, Gabby alleged, “So when it happened, instead of asking me if I wanted to stop having sex, knowing it was my first time and I was sobbing in pain and I didn’t want to do it, the only words that came out of his mouth were ‘we need to break you in.’ ”

Elgort later denied the allegations, but confirmed that he did have a prior intimate relationship with Gabby, which he described as “brief, legal and entirely consensual” in a now deleted Instagram post. “I have never and would never assault anyone,” he added.

Elgort first rose to fame in the 2010s for his roles in a number of hit coming-of-age films, including The Fault In Our Stars, Divergent, and Baby Driver. He is soon to star in an adaptation of Cecelia Ahern’s novel If You Could See Me Now, per Deadline.
