g.d.e.l.g.i., I love the idea of a Jesus who doesn't appear how the public thinks Jesus looks like (let's be real, he probably did not look like how we think of him to look), but Bruno Mars isn't black; he's Filipino/Puerto Rican.
Do we know anything else about this? Casting rumors? A creative team? With NBC's last two announced live ventures being "postponed" (read:. Canceled ), will this even happen? Considering how they rarely seem to even be able to find relative unknowns to sing the score in big stage productions, is there any hope they can even cast Jesus or Judas?
