She knows the role being that she has played it before, she knows the show itself since she has been in different productions, including Broadway as young Cosette. She has the greatest vocal talent, and i do not believe she would overact it because while she may play a crazy, over dramatic character on Glee, that does not mean she would do the same here. She was phenomonal as Wendla on Spring Awakening, which is a dramatic role, and was awesome as Eponine in the Hollywood Bowl. If Taylor Swift gets this role i refuse to see the movie. She cannot play Eponine. After Lea i'm rooting for the director to get Samantha Barks from the UK to play the role!!

Evan has a lovely voice (I really likes her in Across the Universe) and she is a great actress, which is also required for a role like this. Lea has the best voice of the 4 of them, but Evan is better in general 🙂

I don't think I'll be seeing this.

Or they could just do unknowns.

One more fan piling on about Lea Michele's history with the show (sorry, Kevin! it's probably getting annoying!): she performed as Young Cosette for the Broadway production a long time ago, and then was actually offered the role of Eponine in 2006. She turned it down ultimately, deciding to remain with Spring Awakening for its Broadway transfer.

I don't know much about what Lea has been like since Spring Awakening (apparently she's a big diva now?) but I liked her a lot as Wendla in that show, and she has proven many times over that she has the vocal skills — and the experience — for the role. Honestly, I feel like she would be the most reasonable casting choice, and I'm legitimately not sure how she and Taylor Swift are being mentioned in the same sentence here.

If not her, then Wood.

I wouldnt say her reps said that. If i am not mistaken, she already played this role on broadway. Evan Rachel Wood is good too,but i would prefer if they do some auditions. Try to find some girl with perfect look. I like Evan Rachel Wood…. but i dont know…
