Posted: 4/20/12 at 3:22pmI don't think so. Film costumes tend to differ from stage costumes. Just look at the Phantom film

That actually might be her wedding dress she's wearing there, since they were filming Valjean's death scene the other night.
I hope it isn't white as well, because white wedding dresses didn't come into fashion until later in the 19th century. Before then there was no one traditional color, and Cosette's wedding gown in the stage show shouldn't be white.
They also shouldn't be wearing giant hoop skirts in 1832 for the wedding ball, but that's another issue!

Posted: 4/20/12 at 10:11pmsigh, I so wish she was around to play Christine in that mess of a Phantom movie, maybe then I would be able to listen to the CD a bit more, I loved her voice in MM.

Posted: 4/21/12 at 2:47pmIn my opinion, Amanda was the best thing about Mamma Mia! aside from the songs and scenery.

Posted: 4/21/12 at 3:00pmShe doesn't have a bad voice, but none of the vocal performances that I've heard from her so far tell me that she would've been any better than Rossum in POTO.

Posted: 4/21/12 at 7:13pmSame here. She's already said that she struggles with Cosette's vocal part because of the more-operatic soprano style the character requires.

Vocally I think the Emmy Rossum was far more suited for Christine than Amanda is for Cosette...
However, her songs in "Mama Mia" were pretty easy and not too rangy...so who know what she is capable of.
That said, I'm sure that the keys will be lowered in just about everything...and the final notes in songs that Cosette sings that are typically high will be lowered.
