Aladdin Casting Announcement?
 Jan 1 2016, 09:07:47 PM

hey everybody, Will Mann here.  i haven't been on the boards in over a decade but a bunch of friends have contacted me citing this thread and the disney wiki page.  hate to break it to you but i've received no calls about replacing my buddy james.  i texted him with screen shots and we had a good chuckle.  maybe one day the disney wiki prediction will ring true but as for now, no such luck.

 

my best to all of you,

Will

oh sam, i really should fight back my jealous side, but i just can't help it. i bet it was awesome. someday he'll actually share words with me, and yes, i think you're right. one of these seasons he'll originate something incredible.

i'm graduating from OCU this semester, and before i came here i was guilty of using any song norm has sang for my rep. its funny now that i look back, but i definately sang

the devil you know
sailing
you should be loved
when i first saw you
(if only the painter's song from amour could be used for auditions.)

oh.....,...naivete

that would be amazing. a solo album. i'd like to point out that of the recordings you left one is the reprise of "infinite joy" on the infinite joy cd.(one of my favorites)

its so weird, becaue you worship someone for a while, and then you don't hear much, so you forget. my goodness, she is amazing. i just watched those clips, and she is in rare form.

i think we underestimate norm's range. just because he's only been recorded and cast in roles that he needs to sound beautifully smooth in doesn't mean that he can't do anything else. i have faith that performers have more than one trick, and what i'm affraid of in this field is that people get boxed into one sound or character even if its not the best thing they do.

unmasked, what school do you go to? i would love to do sideshow. with all due respect i have to disagree with your list a bit. lilias and audra definately come before brian. thats just my opinion. have you heard heather's new cd. i'm curious, cause i havn't, but hated her first one.

unmasked, you have good taste. i've idolized that man for quite some time now. he is everything i wish i could be like. of corse not sacrificing my own identity, but wow, what it must be like to wake up everyday as norm lewis.

its disgusting, i know.

in my opinion norm hasn't really had an opportunity to shine. He hasn't played a role that really showcased him for his talents. I have nothing against Kingsley or mr. dixon but my love for norm overshadows my the performance i saw. now as far as my debut, it has nothing to do with the current harpo's talents, i just want someday to play that role.

you know who would play mista's role fabulously, my here, norm lewis. i could see it now. i saw the show in december, and all i could think was, what if norm was in it. he'll play mista, i'll make my debut as harpo, everyone would be happy.

give me your ideas.
