Looks like Hollywood actress Katie Holmes is dead serious with her acting career now that she is divorced from A-lister actor Tom Cruise.

Holmes is set to return to Broadway in New York City to star in a five-character comedy play that will be directed by three-time Tony Award winner Jack O’Brien. The newly single actress is set to take part in Theresa Rebeck’s Dead Accounts at the Music Box Theatre.

Sources revealed Dead Accounts talks about a son who returns to his family’s home in Cincinnati, flush with money, which raises red flags for his sister, who is living with their elderly parents. According to reports, Holmes will play the sister role.

The stage play is the second in the acting career of Holmes, who earlier appeared on Broadway in the 2008 production of All My Sons.  With her Broadway appearance, it is speculated that Holmes will now reside in New York City away from Cruise who lives in Los Angeles.

We wish Holmes all the best in her acting career now that she is separated from Tom Cruise.
