No one knows. You'll be fine. There's currently an open casting call nationwide to find the new Usnavi, and if they're not on yet and Lin-Manuel is gone, Javier Munoz gives a great performance.

"Don't get me wrong, I'd like to see an ITH movie. But is the book strong enough for a movie?"

Frankly no. I don't see this show translating to the screen well at all.

I am guessing this is for a national tour because it says rehearsals would start in mid-september.

A friend of mine (non-equity) just got called to audition to replace Lin on Broadway and had his audition this week. He auditioned for the show when it was off-broadway (for a different role) and just got the call to come audition for Usnavi last week. I haven't talked to him, yet, to see how it went, though.
