Just two weeks ago Playbill listed Adam Jacobs as Marius. Now today, it looks like Aaron Lazar has the role. Is Jacobs still with the show? What happened?
Isnt Aaron Lazar Enjolras? From the picture coverage in this site, I can see a pix of Adam Jocobs rehersing (or at least I think its him)!

well the playbill article states him as Marius. In both the photo and in the article. Im confused.
Lazar is playing Enjolras. It was just a misprint.
I only hope and pray that the revival Les Mis Marius is better than the orginal Broadway Marius. He wasn't even marginal, in my opinion. Just re-listening to him trying to sing at the Tony telecast was memorable to me because he seemed to struggle so. Throat problems perhaps?
Aaron Lazar is still Enjolras.

Believe me, onceamonth, you're not the only one to have a problem with David Bryant as Marius in the original company. Both understudies (Marcus Lovett and Joe Kolinski) were significantly better, and one has to wonder how he was cast to begin with.
