Thanks best12bars, for explaining. I hope we hear the best parts of the music from that song during that scene too.

Here's hoping the trailer is with "Gaurdians".
Imagine if the production team of Les Mis had another 9 months to work out the kinks and rethink the weak points. "Bring Him Home" could have been rerecorded in an appropriate key for Hugh Jackman; or, in my fantasy, reshot as a duet with the Bishop looking down from above and singing about Jean Valjean. "One Day More" could have been re-shot entirely to add some badly-needed oomph to the piece. Javert could have been (fill in your choice of recast, dubbed, or whatever else you think it would have taken to salvage the performance). I'm thrilled we're hearing about Into the Woods reshoots, and anxious to hear reactions to the changes from those on the board who saw the earlier iteration. Christmas can't come soon enough.

Lila Crawford tweeted that she's back in London. So she is probably taking part in the reshoots.

The production team of Les Mis were obviously happy with what they had. Reshoots are mostly done to clarify story points that were not clear or are missing from the original cut. No amount of reshooting would have fixed Bring Him Home since they were determined to film the entire movie live and that was as far as Hugh's range could go.

Just thought I's mention that today's the day Disney offers exclusive info from the film for "Brush Up Your Sondheim"!
I thought it was today! We'll find out soon, hopefully.
...seriously, when do we get to see something?
A few films that are set to release in 2015 have teasers, trailers, and posters already out.

If it's any consolation, Mockingjay comes out November 21 and has only had one teaser - and I don't even think the teaser was footage from the film. Its first trailer will be released on Monday. I'm assuming we'll get an Into the Woods teaser by the end of summer.

We shield probably expect a trailer mid-next week for Gaurdians of the Galaxy. If not then, then the following week for A Hundred Foot Journey.

So, I know this is a little early, but we can start talking about possible awards for this film now, right? So, on an awards forum, a member who has friends who saw the screening posted his(her) predictions for Oscar noms. NOT wins. This is what s/he posted:
BEST PICTURE (Probably)
John DeLuca
Rob Marshall
Callum McDougall
Marc Platt
BEST DIRECTOR (No)
Rob Marshall
BEST ACTRESS (Probably)
Meryl Streep
BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR (No)
Johnny Depp
BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
Emily Blunt (Probably)
Anna Kendrick (Almost sure)
BEST ADAPTED SCREENPLAY
James Lapine (Probably)
BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY
Dion Beebe (Almost sure)
BEST FILM EDITING
Wyatt Smith (Almost sure)
BEST SOUND (Almost locked)
BEST PRODUCTION DESIGN AND ART DIRECTION (Almost sure)
Dennis Gassner
Andrew Bennett
Ben Collins
Chris Lowe
Mary Mackenzie
Anna Pinnock
BEST COSTUME DESIGN
Colleen Atwood (Almost locked)
BEST MAKEUP (Almost locked)
BEST VISUAL EFFECTS (No)
BEST SONG (Almost locked)
So, I personally think if it were to be nominated for any awards, it would be at the Golden Globes, or the SAG awards. Now, if ITW is just awesome/amazing/spectacular/beautiful/gift to society, then I think it would have a shot at the Oscars in these Categories.
BTW, these would be my predictions for nominations, if any (if it the film is done right):
BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY
BEST FILM EDITING
BEST SOUND
BEST PRODUCTION DESIGN AND ART DIRECTION
BEST COSTUME DESIGN
BEST MAKEUP
BEST SONG

I won't bother talking about awards for a movie that hasn't even had a trailer out yet.

"So, I know this is a little early, but we can start talking about possible awards for this film now, right?"
I have no doubt James Corden will get a Best Supporting nomination.
Awards? We need to figure out what happened at the "Brush Up Your Sondheim" event from yesterday. What was the "exclusive insight"?
Yes, let's predict awards for the movie without seeing a single frame of footage! Sounds like a not futile discussion at all, right?
I got a response from the people at Brush Up Your Sondheim and this is what they told me: "Sorry. Disney did not want to release any info about the film - and so declined to attend as a result."
I really don't think this film is going to get much Oscar Attention. Maybe for Costumes and make-up, But I have a feeling this film won't be on the level of many other Oscar Nominated Movie musicals.
Someone else mentioned this, but I wouldn't be surprised if it had more of a showing at the Golden Globes.

^(the two psosts above me)
I agree. These predictions, like I said, would only be possible if this film ended up being some amazing gift to the world by Disney! Since it will probably be good, (but not as successful as a film like "Frozen") It won't have a shot at the Oscars most likely, BUT from the first part of that post, those predictions came from someone who saw the screening (or who knows people who saw the screening), so at least those can give us some insight to what the film will be like in some shape or form.
And that's very disappointing about "Brush Up Your Sondheim", I was looking forward to hearing about it.

Exactly what I was thinking. If the film is good it will probably do pretty well at the Globes. But we still haven't seen a single clip so all is up the air.
