Now That There's Going To Be A "Dear Evan Hansen" Movie, Who Do You Think Should Star?

Who Would You Cast In The "Dear Evan Hansen" Movie?

<p>The stage musical, which was super popular and won six Tony Awards, tells of an anxious high-schooler who gets tangled up in a web of his own lies following the sudden death by suicide of his classmate, Connor.</p>

Starting with Evan Hansen – Ben Platt has been cast to play the main role, but do you agree, or do you think someone else would be better?

And how about the role of Connor Murphy, a high school loner whose death by suicide is the catalyst for the events of the musical? Is Colton Ryan the best man for the job?

And who should play Connor's conflicted sister and Evan's love interest, Zoe Murphy – are you team Kaitlyn Dever on this one?

What about Evan's overworked mother, Heidi Hansen? Do you rate the Julianne Moore casting, or is there a better option?

Who should play Jared Kleinman, Evan's mischievous mate who helps him found The Connor Project – should they stick with Nik Dodani?

Amy Adams has been cast to play Connor's amiable stay-at-home mum Cynthia Murphy – do you think she's a good choice or could one of these ladies do a better job?

And how about Larry Murphy? In the stage version he's Connor and Zoe's distant father but in this movie he'll be their stepdad. Is Danny Pino the right man for the job?

And lastly, Amandla Stenberg has been signed up to play Alana Beck, a slightly dramatic over-achiever who attends Evan's school and also helps him found The Connor Project. Are they the right choice for the part?
