If there's ever a Hollywood Adaptation of Hamilton, I hope that Lin keeps to his casting choices as reflecting modern America, not 1776 America.

The Conservatives would lose their mind. But I also couldn't imagine a white guy playing Hercules Mulligan. Certainly not singing Yorktown.

Actually probably most of the original cast would be in it, anyway. Sort of like In The Heights, except hopefully reprising their own original roles.

Certainly wouldn't be a sung-through musical though. Hollywood would need to split it into two, with extra "world-building" and dialogue, like they did with Wicked.

Show tunes are fully gay anyway. Most wont care.

No conservatives gonna care either, so long as the wife blows them afterwards.
