Mimi Rent Movie Views
Rent was adapted into a movie directed by Chris Columbus with a screenplay by Stephen Chbosky. With the exception of Mimi and Joanne, the original Broadway cast members reprised the principal roles. Rosario Dawson played Mimi, and Tracie Thoms was cast as Joanne, as Daphne Rubin-Vega (Mimi) was pregnant at the time of filming, and Fredi Walker (Joanne) felt she was too old for the part. Released on November 23, 2005, the film remained in the box office top ten for three weeks. Several plot elements were changed slightly, and some of the songs were changed to spoken dialogue in the film. The film's soundtrack was produced by Rob Cavallo, engineered by Doug McKean and features renowned session musicians, Jamie Muhoberac, Tim Pierce, and Dorian Crozier.
While watching the movie RENT, I constantly though Vanessa looked like Mimi a little, so I'm sure she can pull of the looks and hopefully the acting part too! She was not a terrible actress in HSM. After all give her a break she's never done broadway before and movies and broadway are two different things! Don't judge her before we actually see her performance! She could surprise you guys!
