Photo: Amy Adams/Universal Pictures With the announcement that Universal Studios will be projecting Dear Evan Hansen on the big screen, there has been circulation surrounding the top-notch casting potential. Written by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, Dear Evan Hansen is a six-time Tony award-winning musical about a well-intentioned lie spinning out of control and the teenager trapped in the middle. Ben Platt will be reprising his critically acclaimed role as Evan Hansen, joined by Kaitlyn Dever as Zoe Murphy, Julianne Moore as Heidi Hansen, and most recently, Amy Adams as Cynthia Murphy. This exciting announcement has both delighted the expectant audience while raising more than a few eyebrows: is Amy Adams qualified to take on such a musically-inclined performance? Despite her Academy-renowned acting talents, most do not recognize Adams as carrying a rich history in musical theatre. This certainly is worth revisiting before she steals our breath away in the upcoming musical drama.
