If Trunchbull is a female actress then Dot Marie Jones would be amazing in the part.

Lee Evans would be a great Mr. Wormwood but I am guessing they might cap some of the actors ages at 40 for the parent roles.

I don't think they'll necessarily look for a good singer for Trunchbull probably someone who will moreso act the part. I can't recall the role being a hard vocal part weren't most of her songs spoke song. 

I think somebody more along the lines of Colin Firth will be eyed for the lead. It's a predominantly British smaller budget production think Bridget Jones/Everybody's talking about Jamie type casting. I'd love to see Emily Blunt as Miss Honey she would be perfect for the role probably even equally as good for Mrs Wormwood. Dare I even suggest Kendrick as Honey?

I believe it releases in around two hours and fifteen minutes.

I'm gonna be controversial and say that I'd prefer if this wasn't a musical film and would've probably worked better that way.

As per the recent Evening with Stephen Schwartz celebration the film version is nearing the pre-production stage and they're starting to talk about casting.

I was asking my friend to elaborate on the music, basically the most important part in and musical film let's be honest. She said not to go in expecting classic Menken Disney and that all the music was pretty much redone as pop and RnB like the Annie's remake. It's really lowered my expectations unfortunately.

I think she can hit the note no problem.

Emily had no issues singing live at Hillary Clinton's fundraiser or doing live one takes in James Corden's chat show, I wonder why she isn't doing it.

I'm thinking some old school actress stunt casting could work wonders for the strippers. How about a Witches of Eastwick reunion.

Susan Surrandon as Mazeppa

Cher as Electra

Michelle Pfeiffer as Tessie

Alternativelly Goldie Hawn could work too in one of the parts.

Ive heard that Barbra is still attatched as producer so perhaps she still has people in mind she'd like to appear in the film. Daisy Ridley was heavily rumoured as

Brie Larson would be wonderful for Louise, and yes the real life counterparts to Gypsy are quite darker. 

It's probably most appropriate to be looking at the likes of actresses who are under 30 for the role but Gaga would be amazing in the part. 

In the era of acceptance, female empowerment, fake news, political unrest and movements for people of colour the film version should rely heavier on those themes, the show presents them in a more subtle way.

And what's wrong with Daniel Radcliffe doing the part? His dancing wasn't bad in How to Succeed.

I feel like Melissa will be a great Rose. Her SNL sketch of the Broadway Super Bowl gives me Mama Rose vibes. Saorise is quite a nice suggestion too. I suggested Dove Cameron for Glinda but she'd be a great Dainty June aswell.

Gypsy doesn't need to have a good voice so I'd be willing to give Emma Watson redemption for Belle if she was cast as Louise. Emma Stone could be another possibility.

If they're casting younger ages to appeal to a teenage audience then Dove Cameron is perfect for Glinda. Stunt casting the rest of the cast will work a charm for this film. I'd like to see Patrick Stewart take on the Wizard or Dr. Dillamond he can sing somewhat too atleast enough for the part.
