Posted: 11/13/14 at 6:17pmI'm very curious. I'm sure they'll go with a "big" name.

Posted: 11/13/14 at 6:18pmDefinitely a big name, you're right... Wonder when Anna Kendrick may return to Broadway, now that she's a household name?

Posted: 11/13/14 at 6:25pmEmma could always just extend through March, when I assume the show is closing up shop?

Posted: 11/13/14 at 6:32pmWouldn't the show just close? Anna Kendrick has done nothing but distance herself from musicals during the press rounds for THE LAST 5 YEARS and the early press for INTO THE WOODS. In fact, she recently told Playbill.com that the role that would get her back to Broadway is...Henrik in A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC. Not to mention she's all kinds of wrong for Sally.

The show is scheduled to run through March. Emma is running through early February.

I wonder if the show will tour.
If so I wonder who would lead the cast as Sally and the emcee.

Posted: 11/13/14 at 6:59pmI know she's most probably too old, but Toni Collette would be amazing.

"I wonder if the show will tour."
Hard to say, since it technically already did.

Posted: 11/13/14 at 8:25pmI doubt Anne would ever be a replacement, but she does have the average voice needed for the part.

"Anna Kendrick has done nothing but distance herself from musicals during the press rounds for THE LAST 5 YEARS and the early press for INTO THE WOODS."
um, how exactly would that be possible?
#18Emma Stone's replacement
Posted: 11/13/14 at 9:22pmWell, after two back to back musical movies, she could be saying she is looking for roles in different genres in the near term?
#19Emma Stone's replacement
Posted: 11/13/14 at 9:29pmI think Anna is very talented, but I do not think that Sally fits her all too well. If she could sing, Jennifer Lawrence would be fantastic! Other than that, they'll probably try and find some hot young actress. I think Kirsten Dunst would be interesting, but I'm not sure how big of a draw she would be.

Posted: 11/13/14 at 10:06pmI've convinced myself that The Real Thing is one way Roundabout is preparing Maggie Gyllenhaal for the role. I think she'd be excellent.

Michelle Dockery (Lady Mary from Downton Abbey). Her voice, though light, is appropriately low pitched, which isn't the case for most modern day Sallys.

Posted: 11/14/14 at 9:43amThe next replacement will most likely not be quite so A-list as Stone. I can easily seeing it be one of the Downton ladies. They're known but you still have to say "Jessica Brown Findlay...she played Lady Sybil."
