I have the feeling she kind of wants too much. ITH is about young people. The only role I really could imagine her in would be Daniela´s but honestly if JLO was in the movie, it would become “the new J.Lo-movie” which should not be the case. I personally think Andrea Burns and her amazing voice fit to the role of Daniela way better. Hopefully she gets the role and not JLo.

I think that would be awesome, although she may be too big a name to put in the movie. I am looking forward to seeing the original cast in the movie, as they are ALL amazing. :D
If any broadway role, I’d say put her in as Daniella. It’s about right for her age.
Love the show, Hope to love the movie.

I love, love, love Jennifer but do i think this the right project for her? Only she can decide that but ,my opinion stand as no. I saw this wonderfully written musical twice and it is a show where everybody is at the same level. Meaning this, broadway and hollywood are apple and oranges. To work in the broadway community you have to work together in order to put on a show that your audience can intamently connect to. No one can out shine the other. They all have to have the same goal which is to put the story first. And Jennifer does not seem like the type to let that happen. Hollywood is all glit’s and glam and who can I step on to get on top. VERY,VERY self-centered community. I really don’t think she is a good fit. They should try to get as much of the oringinal cast in the movie just like they did with RENT. One last thing to say, REMEBER EL CANTANTE. I read that it bombed.
