so i stand firm in my belief that movies musicals and me is one of the most underrated projects starkid has ever done. i know it was an adaptation of a stage show, but i often dream about what a season 2 could look like because i just want more esther fallick content. the concept of the season would be that halpert evans transitioned (her name is still halpert because #brand) and so now there’s a whole new realm of roles for her, and so here are some of the shows i thought of
i decided to finally post this bc the movies that i have selected keep getting turned into actual musicals so i need to make these ideas known before it’s too late
⁃ devil wears prada: so i know they made this a musical already, but imagine halpert evans as miranda priestly. that is HER role
⁃ hereditary: toni colette mom. the song would be the dinner table scene, but it’s a song. it would be insane
⁃ alien: ripley, i feel like this is just classic
⁃ hunger games: katniss, halpert evans YA novel realness
⁃ brave: merida, imagine the terrible scottish accent and terrible red wig
⁃ i tonya: okay so hear me out. halpert wants to do a historical musical, like hamilton and zuckerberg, but they decide to go for a more controversial approach. the show includes actual ice skating and halpert goes method
⁃ burn after reading: would just be a ludicrous show to make a musical out of
⁃ pulp fiction: mia wallace, halpert accepts the role without having seen the movie and doesn’t realize she is barely in the movie. she demands they write her as a bigger part and give her a power ballad, ala ballad of bruce banner
⁃ gone girl: amy dunne, it’s just a reallllly tacky adaptation.
any additions are more than welcome!!
