What about LaChanze reprising her role as a muse.

Ohh, I like the idea of Chris Seiber as Hercules. But please, anyone except Jenn Gambatese as Meg.

Brenda Braxton
Roz Ryan
LaChanze
Capathia Jenkins
Lillias White

If they are the muses, I'd shell out "young frankenstein" bucks to see it!

Susan Egan please! I could never picture anyone else doing Meg!

Neil Patrick Harris or David Ayers as Hercules
Susan Egan or Anneliese van der Pol as Megara

Personally, I wouldn't care for Susan Egan as Meg, even though she voiced the character in the animated film. I think it would be fun to cast an unknown...

Could Danny DeVito play Phil, though? Ha ha!!

I've always thought that Hercules would make a GREAT musical on stage!

for me
Meg: Sara Ramirez
Hercules: Josh Strickland
Hades: Terrence Mann

I'd like to get the original muses back. My gal Lillias front-and-center, with LaChanze and Roz Ryan.

Does Cheryl Freeman still perform? Last I heard of her was back in THE CIVIL WAR. But if she still sounds anything like does on the TOMMY obcr, I'd love to hear her.

Not sure who Vanéese Y. Thomas is. She has a few other voice credits on IMDB, but that's it.

So if we need new Muses to replace the last two, I'd nominate Carpathia Jenkins and Shayna Steele.

Sheryl Lee Ralph as the head Muse.

Hercules: Cheyenne Jackson
Meg: Sutton Foster
Hades: Gary Beach
Pain: Dan Folger
Panic: Jesse Tyler Ferguson
Phil: Nathan Lane

The five original muses, of course.
