Oddly enough this is not from the BWW interview, it's from a separate Paul W broadway.com interview.

Did we know that Hannah Cruz is playing Gussie in the Richard Linklatter movie version of Merrily We Roll Along? And if I did miss this --who's in the rest of the cast?

The cast includes:

• Paul Mescal as Frank
• Ben Platt as Charley
• Beanie Feldstein as Mary
• Mallory Bechtel as Beth
• Lin-Manuel Miranda (his role hasn't been announced yet, but I think I heard somewhere that he's playing Joe Josephson)

Yes I've seen Hannah asked about it in nearly every interview she has done for Chess.  From memory she filmed a segment for it last year and she's filming another segment of it in December.
