Rob Lowe Checks Out “The Outsiders” Broadway Show 41 Years After the Movie: 'OG Outsider'
The actor made his feature film debut in Francis Ford Coppola's 1983 movie 'The Outsiders' as Sodapop Curtis
Rob Lowe is still a greaser at heart.
On May 14, the actor, 60, shared photos of himself posing outside the marquee for the Broadway adaptation of The Outsiders at the Jacobs Theatre in New York City onInstagram.
"From an OG Outsider, Congratulations! #broadway #theoutsiders," Lowe wrote in a caption to his photos, which show him posing opposite a sign showing the musical's cast and another sign that notes the production's 12 nominations at the upcoming Tony Awards.
Lowe made his feature film debut all the way back in 1983 in director Francis Ford Coppola's The Outsiders. That film and the new Broadway production are based on author S.E. Hinton's 1967 novel of the same name.

Lowe costarred in The Outsiders with Tom Cruise, Diane Lane, Ralph Macchio, Matt Dillon, C. Thomas Howell, Emilio Estevez and Patrick Swayze.
It follows three brothers, Ponyboy Curtis (Howell, now 57), Darrel Curtis (Swayze, who died in in 2009 at 57) and Sodapop Curtis (Lowe) and their group of friends in Tulsa, Oklahoma during the 1960s, some time after the death of the Curtis brothers' parents.
Coppola, 85, shared footage from auditions for The Outsiders on Instagram in February that showed Lowe and other actors reading for parts in the film together on a soundstage. Lowe spoke to that unique audition process during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show in 2014.
"All those guys on that movie, they're like the guys who were in my fraternity at college. I can go my whole life ... any time I see any of the guys, I'm just ecstatic," he said of meeting his Outsiders cast mates.
The Outsiders is nominated for best musical, as well as 11 other awards, at the upcoming 77th Tony Awards, which will be held June 16.
