I heard the rumor about Diego (swoon) as well; haven't heard about Esparza; I feel like Peron is a waste of many an actor's talent anyhow, especially if they have a great voice, because a non singer could easily play him.

PLEASE let this Raul Rumor be true, despite it coming from the mouth of our sweaty friend!

Many people have mentioned that they are not particularly fond of Zegler's singing in chest voice. I agree, it sounds a bit shaky and high-schoolish. She is more of a soprano. She is good in head voice and the softer parts in chest, such as "DCFMA", that suits her voice quite well.

With that in mind, I think it is clever to go for a different approach of the material. Not the bellowing LuPone route, but a gentler soprano route. https://youtu.be/cKKR-A5UEC4?si=KveQ4D3Ih70Tro_V&t=277
