Are we really pretending that Adam and Anthony aren't going to do this?

I predict one to make a cameo as Mark's Mom.

The real-deal-thing is that if anyone had any brains, they'd never DO "Rent" at the Hollywood Bowl....big screens notwithstanding. Hmmmm, LosAngelenos sitting out in the balmly/hot evening of Summer trying to imagine the NY Village in winter featuring slackers of immense immaturity... (well, the LA-ers can relate to the "slackers of immense immaturity") and being expected to take any of it seriously? The Bowl is the Bowl is the Bowl, and not made for everything. Been there, played there, done that. Ah well. Maybe they should just cast movie stars and have them lip-synch. Nobody'd know the difference!!

seeing as its going to be what they call an all star cast, I think this could work:

roger ADAM PASCAL, but i'd really like to see ADAM LAMBERT
mark NEIL PATRICK HARRIS, or MICHAEL ARDEN
mimi TAMYRA GRAY
joanne TRACY THOMS
maureen EDEN ESPINOSA (people in la really really like her)
angel JAI RODRIGUEZ or WILSON (he's from la)
collins JESSE L or BRIAN STOKES

and I hope they cast a lot of newcomers in the ensemble. give some up and comers in LA a chance to showcase.

I would cast it with actors who have never been in Rent before, and definitely no one from the last tour.
