Allison Williams Needs to Play Cinderella in "Into the Woods"

If anyone watches HBO's "Girls," you know Allison Williams, who plays Marni on the show. She's a fantastic, beautiful actress who graduated from Yale two years ago. And yes, she is Brian Williams' daughter.

What you might not know is that she is an incredible singer. Here she is singing a "remixed" version of the "Mad Men" theme song. I think she'd make a perfect Cinderella in "Into the Woods". Thoughts? Rob Marshall, are you reading this?

Williams has a very serviceable singing voice, but she absolutely cannot act. She's wooden, lifeless, and dead in the eyes, and it's becoming more and more apparent on GIRLS as more and more is required of her.

Also I have to say having worked with her on something separate she is a complete nightmare, and yes, is 150% dead behind the eyes on and off screen.

I like Williams in GIRLS, I think she's pretty funny in the role but I don't know that she will prove to be particularly versatile, it reminds me a bit of Kirsten Davis in SEX AND THE CITY--though Davis was funnier and more unique in her role.
On the topic of GIRLS' actresses, I'd much rather see Zosia Mamet's neurotic take on Cinderella, I doubt she can sing but I'd love to hear her rendition of "On the Steps of the Palace" because of the real talent, quirkiness and depth she can potentially bring to it.
Any rumors about who's actually gonna play the role?
