He grew up in Ruidoso, New Mexico, a small town 120 miles south of Albuquerque, where he first took up acting in the fourth grade. ...
The Balladeer.
Played the part in the Broadway run, should be given the chance to reprise it.
2. Aaron Tveit

Aaron Tveit was born on October 21, 1983 in Middletown, New York as Aaron Kyle Tveit. He's an American actor & singer known for originating the roles of Gabe in Next to Normal as well as Frank Abagnale Jr. in Catch Me If You Can on Broadway. He's also known as Tripp van der Bilt in Gossip Girl (...
John Wilkes Booth.
Also previously played the role, Tveit's powerhouse vocals will ensure 'The Ballad of Booth' is a showstopper.
3. Emily Blunt
Actress | Edge of Tomorrow
Emily Olivia Leah Blunt is a British actress known for her roles in The Devil Wears Prada (2006), The Young Victoria (2009), Edge of Tomorrow (2014), and The Girl on the Train (2016), among many others.
Blunt was born on February 23, 1983, in Roehampton, South West London, England, the second of ...
Sara Jane Moore.
A talented actress/singer, Blunt has a comedic edge that would make her both hilarious and terrifying.
4. Emma Stone

Emily Jean "Emma" Stone was born on November 6, 1988 in Scottsdale, Arizona to Krista Jean Stone (née Yeager), a homemaker & Jeffrey Charles "Jeff" Stone, a contracting company founder and CEO. She is of Swedish, German & British Isles descent. Stone began acting as a child as a member of the ...
Lynette Fromme.
An Oscar winning actress, Stone could play well off of Blunt and also be both hilarious and terrifying.
5. Russell Crowe
Actor | Les Misérables
Russell Ira Crowe was born in Wellington, New Zealand, to Jocelyn Yvonne (Wemyss) and John Alexander Crowe, both of whom catered movie sets. His maternal grandfather, Stanley Wemyss, was a cinematographer. Crowe's recent ancestry includes Welsh (where his paternal grandfather was born, in Wrexham),...
Samuel Byck.
I know casting Crowe in a musical is sacrilegious, but he really isn't THAT bad a singer. Plus, Byck only sings in the ensemble. Crowe is a world-class actor and could pull off Byck's insane monologues.
6. Tom Hiddleston
Actor | The Avengers
Thomas William Hiddleston was born in Westminster, London, to English-born Diana Patricia (Servaes) and Scottish-born James Norman Hiddleston. His mother is a former stage manager, and his father, a scientist, was the managing director of a pharmaceutical company. He started off at the preparatory ...
Giuseppe Zangara.
A talented actor, Hiddlestone got to show off his pipes in 'I See The Light'. In that film he also demonstrated a knack for accents. Hiddlestone could be a hilarious Zangara.
7. Daniel Radcliffe
Actor | Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Daniel Jacob Radcliffe was born on July 23, 1989 in Fulham, London, England, to casting agent Marcia Gresham (née Jacobson) and literary agent Alan Radcliffe. His father is from a Northern Irish Protestant background, while his mother was born in South Africa, to a Jewish family (from Lithuania, ...
John Hinckley Jr.
A talented Broadway actor, Radcliffe could pull off the deranged insanity needed for Hinckley.
8. Hugh Jackman
Actor | Les Misérables
Hugh Michael Jackman is an Australian actor, singer, multi-instrumentalist, dancer and producer. Jackman has won international recognition for his roles in major films, notably as superhero, period, and romance characters. He is best known for his long-running role as Wolverine in the X-Men film ...
Charles Guiteau.
A true showman, Jackman would absolutely nail the 'Ballad of Guiteau' and make it a true showstopping number.
9. Chris Pine
Actor | Star Trek
Chris Pine was born in Los Angeles. His parents are actors Robert Pine and Gwynne Gilford, and his maternal grandparents were Max M. Gilford, a president of the Hollywood Bar Association, and actress Anne Gwynne. His sister, Katherine Pine, has also acted. Chris's ancestry is Russian Jewish (from ...
Leon Czologoz.
One of the few baritones working in Hollywood, Pine's baritone and tall stature would make Czologoz an imposing figure.
10. Victor Garber
Actor | Argo
Victor Garber has been in some of the most memorable projects of the past four decades. Victor has recently appeared in The Slap (2015), The Flash (2014), Motive (2013) and Web Therapy (2011). He is currently staring in Greg Berlanti's new DC Comics Superhero series "DC's Legends of Tomorrow" for ...
The Proprietor.
The original Booth and the man most deserving of a Tony who doesn't have one.
It broke Garber's heart when Assassins didn't make it to Broadway, to make up for that cast him in the movie.
