So if you're not hot on your musical theatre news, you may have missed that Broadway sensation Dear Evan Hansen is being made into a feature film!

NBC / Via tenor.com

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.

The cast so far is actually pretty great IMO, but certain choices have left fans a little divided. So, to settle this, I want to know who your dream cast for the Dear Evan Hansen movie would be...

  1. 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?

  1. 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?
