Why did no one tell me this was a thing?? New Les Miserables movie (this time with singing!) = CLEARLY IN MY INTERESTS. Plus, my Broadway crush, Aaron Tveit, is playing Enjolras, and - as of now - there are ZERO Jonas Brothers in the cast. What could be better?


See Aaron spin!
And then this happened.

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY????????
Although, when you think about it, I guess Taylor Swift IS the perfect person to play a character described as a “pale, puny, meager creature" with a voice like "a drunken galley slave’s."

Date: Jan. 5th, 2012 09:38 pm (UTC)But to cast Swift in the one real goo female role in the thing, that's definitely a bad move...
Are there any other casting spoilers yet? Is the internet finally going to fill with Valjean/Javert slash (of which there is appallingly little, not that I googled....)

Yeah, I am side-eying Russell Crowe, too.
