If Boop! the musical were in development I'd agree, but it doesn't seem so, if I'm reading the article correctly... ?

Couldn't hold the SHIFT key to re-size Brunson's head proportionally?

She requested her head dimensions emulate the original Fleischer cartoon. I don’t like it but she does.

It's not the musical because...you know...why? But FYI David Foster and his bimbo bride just did a benefit performance to fundraise for Spencer Pratt.

Brunson is a great choice for this, to be honest.

I think so, too - especially if she doesn't have to sing (scrub to ~2:20 timestamp):

While it's not a film version of the musical, this film's release will probably be good for the musical. It'll raise the general awareness / popularity of Betty Boop a bit, and might lead to more productions of the show.
