While we’re the first to admit that news on the Spring Awakening movie doesn’t exactly fall within the purview of theTVaddict.com, we couldn’t resist bringing reaction direct from the set of GLEE, where actress Lea Michele, who originated the role of of Wendla Bergman in the hit Broadway musical was kind enough to throw her hat into the proverbial ring when asked for her reaction to yesterday’s news that McG (THE OC, Terminator: Salvation) is in talks to bring Spring Awakening to the big screen.
Not surprisingly, Michele believes that Awakening (alongside In the Heights) is one of a handful of broadway shows that would be incredible on film. And was only to happy to reveal, while taking a break from filming a pivotal scene from an upcoming episode of GLEE that, “I created the role [at 14] and love the piece so much and would love to be apart of it if they will have me.”
Got that McG?
