Leading man that has two parts on stage (5,3,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

henry the fourth

I believe this is a double definition.

'leading man' is the first definition.
(king who led or ruled England)

'that has two parts on stage' is the second definition.
(Shakespeare's Henry IV Part 1 and Henry IV Part 2)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
