Trailer: FX Mini-Series 'FOSSE/VERDON'

Sam Rockwell and Michelle Williams in 'Fosse/Verdon'

Bob Fosse - visionary filmmaker and one of theater’s most influential choreographers and directors.

Gwen Verdon - the greatest Broadway dancer of all time.

Fosse/Verdon will tell the story of these two brilliant, complicated individuals – the love they shared, the art they created, and the price they paid in the pursuit of greatness.

The good news for Broadway fans is dancers/choreographers who really understand Fosse-style are in the mix making sure the iconic Fosse/Verdon dance style is captured accurately.

From DanceNetwork:

Because Fosse's dance style is so specific, it took a team of people from choreographers Andy Blakenbuehler and Susan Misner to The Verdon Fosse Legacy, run by Verdon and Fosse's daughter, Nicole Fosse, to make sure that the movement was accurate. The Verdon Fosse Legacy's mission "is to promote, preserve, and protect the artistic and intellectual property of Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon."

Broadway dancer and teacher Mary Ann Lamb was brought in by Andy Blakenbhuehler, who did the first few episodes of Fosse/Verdon and left to choreograph the movie,Cats, during production. Her job was to coach actor Sam Rockwell, who plays Bob Fosse in the series.

"I was brought in to get Sam Rockwell familiar with the steps. He's a natural dancer. It was a joy," shared Lamb. "Then I stayed on the project to assist Susan Misner, who took over for Andy Blakenbuehler. I worked with Sam and Michelle Williams, both are brilliantly talented dancers and singers — they're triple threats."

In the new sneak peak trailer for the mini-series, stars Sam Rockwell, Michelle Williams, director Thomas Kail (Hamilton) and more offer behind the scenes scoop on the highly anticipated new series!

Premieres April 9 on FX.
