'More people will see the show on July 3, 4 and 5 than have seen it in the previous five years.”

Directed by Thomas Kail, the “Hamilton” movie was primarily filmed in 2016 over two live performances before original cast members began to exit – and a week before Miranda departed. The show's brain trust wanted the musical to be more accessible to audiences after “we were strapped to that rocket ship” of being a Broadway sensation and the show became a tough ticket to get, he says.
With the national conversation currently centered on white supremacy and systemic racism, “the lyrics about slavery – what all of these characters did and what they didn't do – hit differently now because the show, just in telling Hamilton's story, brushes against the origins of this country. It’s always going to have something to say,” Miranda says.
Another thing Miranda noticed with the “Hamilton” film: “That's the most tired I've ever been,” he says with a laugh. “I had a newborn child, I was doing two outdoor performances for a thousand people out on the street every week, and I was doing seven shows a week.”
