At Hugh Jackman's "Back On Broadway" he expressed his excitement in his two great loves -movies and musicals, when he plays the role of Jean Valjean in Tom ("The King's Speech") film adaptation of the musical "Les Miz".
More interesting is the answer to who will play Eponine. According to Page Six it's between Taylor Swift, Lea Michele, Scarlett Johansson and Evan Rachel wood.
Hmmmm….
Taylor Swift – Lessee, she can't dance, she can't act, and she is not a good enough singer. Not a chance in hell.
Evan Rachel Wood – A fine actress but it's a musical drama. How can you do it. She can't.
Scarlett Johansson – Anybody who heard her put a meat cleaver to Tom Waits, might question her singing ability. I've never seen her dance though she can certainly act. Doubtful.
Lea Michele – I' m assuming they put up the other names up for the shits and giggles. She has already played the role of the young Cosette on Broadway and though she is nearly not in the same league looks wise as the other two, she can actually play the role which must count for something.
Lea by a mile.
