  • Take a look back to 2014 when Finding Neverland invited audiences to believe. The Act One finale, "Stronger," featuring Jeremy Jordan as Peter Pan author J.M. Barrie and Michael McGrath as Captain Hook saw Scott Pask's set transform into a pirate ship through A LOT of fairy dust and singing.
    americanrepert...
    Book by James Graham | Music and Lyrics by Gary Barlow and Eliot Kennedy
    Directed by Diane Paulus | Choreography by Mia Michaels
    Based on the Miramax motion picture by David Magee and the play The Man Who Was Peter Pan by Allan Knee

      @@吱娜终国 I read somewhere that Harvey Weinstein may have had an agreement with Matthew Morrison from the beginning. I think Morrison had other projects ongoing at the time the show was in development. It had mixed reviews, but despite that, I think Jeremy was generally praised for his work on it. Who knows? Maybe if they kept him, the show would have found more success. I think Weinstein felt Morrison was probably more bankable, but the man's a creep, so perhaps it was a good thing that Jeremy wasn't associated with this project more than he was. He still did a hell of a job.

    I was fortunate enough to see this performance twice at the A.R.T. In Boston and got to meet Jeremy after a performance. He was great in this role and for the life of me cannot understand why he wasn’t cast for Broadway over Matthew Morrison. The show would have been way more successful than it was with Jeremy in the lead.

      Agreed. And i legit didn't know the accent was meant to be Scottish. Like no disrespect to Matthew Morrison as an actor but that accent was attrocious.
      At least Jeremy can hold the accent and it sounds like what its supposed to.

    see, i wouldn't necessarily say this role was "perfect" for Jeremy as much as something like Newsies... but that's the thing. He always rises to the challenge and blows your face away with the passion in his performance. he literally acts his butt of and sings his heart out and it has never disappointed me.

    I have hyper focused on the Broadway version of this musical for about a year and I got to say I think Jeremy Jordans is a lot more intense than the Broadway version. I’m a little biased towards the Broadway version because it’s the one I heard first. However I can see why people prefer Jeremy‘s J.M. Barrie over Matthew Morrison‘s. Both of them are fantastic actors in their own right though.😊

But I also have to take in account that we may have missed out on Jeremy's Winn Schott in supergirl and THAT would also be a crime.
