Me too! But I understand why they didn't have more scenes. The movie was supposed to be about Barnum and the circus, and they needed to focus on that. If they gave too much attention to these characters, it would have derailed the original point and been overtaken by their love story, which would have been especially problematic since their characters were completely fictional, whereas the others were real or at least based on real characters. But they were a beautiful couple, and I would LOVE if Zendaya and Zac Effron pulled a Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone and just kept getting cast as love interests in a bunch of different movies, because I think they do have a phenomenal onscreen connection.
3:09: "It feels impossible." "It's not impossible." *Are they talking about rewriting the stars, or conjuring a second rope into existence out of literally nowhere? Because they both happen.*
Fun fact:this whole thing was actually performed, none of it is fake, zendaya actually had to learn trapeze and zach actually had to trust that zendaya wouldn't drop him to his death when he jumped off the rail.🤣🤣😆
@@angela1984a I saw an interview about Zac and Zendaya talking about the trapeze parts. Zendaya actually said that she had to learn trapeze in order to do those scenes.
Just a slight correction. Yes the had to learn trapeze and train hard in order to use the stunt doubles as little as possible. So your mostly right but there were stunt doubles!
all of the symbolism of this scene is pretty cool, from their relationship in dance/trapeze form to the way the lyrics and harmonies shift UGH I LOVE IT SO MUCH
Aerial ropes have this dreamlike ethereal fantastic quality when performed. I saw the aerial scene in Cirque du Soleil Worlds Away which had a similar romantic tone to this and it was breathtaking!
"You were made to be mine," I said the same to my wife many years ago. She thought it was a stupid thought and now they sing it in songs. I think it's a pretty sentence and maybe it's the truth. We have been together since 16. juni 1981 and married since 93.
God bless you brother. I will say this to whoever God wants me to be with forever. And she’ll ask “where’d ya hear that one” I’ll say “UA-cam comment section. Interesting place.”
and any (college-aged or more) guy who says they haven't had a very similar convo with a girl is a dang liar. difference between their situation and ours is she didn't change her mind because we ran into a burning building.
the part that alway gets me is at 2:41 when you look at Zac's eyes. He looked so sad when Zendaya left and he didn't want that moment to end. I LOVE the chemistry between them in this movie so much.
@C L A R I E there was some but.... when they were together on the ropes and they had two ropes they jad not harness or wires. They actually had to jump and perform that. Zendaya said so her self
@@georgette0807 Which part do you mean? When Zac Efron yeeted himself from the balcony surely he had wires/a harness. I know for some parts they didn't have wires and had to do a lot of training for it.
Ugh the chemistry!!!!! DIES!!!!!! Their acting is so on point!! He looked at her, from scene 1 with them, like she was the only one in the room, like she was his everything..... So beautiful.... TT-TT And at the end, when he rushes into the fire.... TTuTT So beautiful.
This song is about two people that love each other but can't be together because of their color of skin rewrite the stars means let's break the law and be together , love is not about you color its how you treat others love is about finding someone that cares about you not judged by your color that is the perpose of rewrite the stars
Idk about the whole skin colour thing,but it's mainly because people think that she's not too-ckass enough and snub her for being at the circus. But since he owned a ballet company and was respected,he wasn't judged as much.
These two need to work together again. Not just because of their charisma, but because they complement each other so much! This is still one of my all-time favorite movies!

People were crying in the movie theater! It's why I hate reviews that said the movie was too simple or didn't take chances. The fact that Carlyle has to work very hard to get Anne *alone* is a risk in today's hyper-sensitive environment and the fact that she rejects him *after this beautiful number* makes the movie complex since the cliched easy way out would've been for them to get back together then & there.
Its not just the skin color, back then it was a matter of high class vs low class. Weve seen class movies like this before but personally class vs class movies are so worth the watch because its not just 'hey, these are the rules but rules are meant to be broken.' Its a movie of uplifting yourself and not demoting yourself for the sake of everyone else just so people can like you. This movie among others are always an A+ in my book.
You know I want you It's not a secret I try to hide I know you want me So don't keep saying our hands are tied You claim it's not in the cards Fate is pulling you miles away And out of reach from me But you're here in my heart So who can stop me if I decide That you're my destiny?

the way he looks at her, the way he roles plays and the way he wants her... amazing scene and charters with the perfect song and perfect actors. I love their story. Zac also singing and dancing.. you can't ask for better
This song, i personally prefer original. Even though i love james arthur and he is a great singer, however, the reimagined one with ann-marie sounds normal for me The song is good, but you can feel the way they sing can be heard from other songs I think Zendaya and Zac voice suits this song better
The chemistry between Zac and Zendaya trumps the vocal acrobatics of James Arthur and Anne-Marie. Not saying that their cover version was bad. But this original version just has that soul that the cover did NOT have at all.
Zac and Zendaya’s hands at 0:14. Zendaya is seriously such an amazing actress. Her facial expressions at 0:20 match the pain you can hear in her voice when she says “It’s not just them. You’ve never had somebody look at you the way you’re parents looked at me. The way everyone would look at us” Her deep sigh at 0:30 gets me every time. This whole song/video is just brilliant ♥️
This scene was beautiful the fact that she was holding back made it even more heartfelt his parents really need to get it through their head that their son is in love she’s holding back because his parents have this big company and he has a shot and she doesn’t want to spoil it or take it away from him but he doesn’t want the company or any of his parents money he wants her instead but she can’t see that I’m glad they were together at the end though Zac and Zendaya though portrayed this scene so well it must’ve been so hard to sing and swing from rope to rope at the same time it was cute and romantic and the song is so fucking amazing it’s my favourite the feels oh my god 😍❤️
I really like the way they wrote her character.. she's a vulnerable person with hurt feelings, and not a super strong woman. i actually thought they would make her confident and kinda bitchy :')
I liked that about her too. It made her more human to show that she was vulnerable and lacked self-confidence at first. People expect women to be strong and independent, but the truth is, not every person in the world, man or woman, is born independent or able to mature in that way as they go through life.
manu ela Yeah I really dislike that stereotype. Making the few female characters cocky, overconfident and kind of a stubborn know-it-all. The main robot chick in Detroit: become human is a good example (not Kara the other one)
When I was little I had an obsession with HSM and years later here am I watching The greatest showman... Well somethings never change. I hope musical movies keep coming out.
2:31 Okay so I was VERY high the first time I watched this. But the way she swings down and just fuggin' SLAMS into Zac so hard and without any elegance whatsoever had me SCREAM laughing first time I saw it. I had to go back and watch it a few times. Like, here's this super romantic trapeze swing scene and then out of nowhere BAM. God I still get a chuckle every time.
im in love with this scene its so beautiful in so many ways, the acting is amazing, the choreography, zac and zendaya's chemistry, the way their voices compliment each other so well. this is one of my favorite songs from the greatest showman i love it.
I LOVE how actors/performers (ESPECIALLY these two who NAILED it 🙌🏽) get a chance to play and "show" how TRAGIC it is to really want to be with and love someone, and yet they just can't!😢😭❤️👏🏽👌🏽
That great but painful moment that I realise and can no longer deny that Zac Efron and Zendaya Coleman are FAR from one trick pony Disney "stars". Their talent is up there with the best and their chemistry is electric. They both carry this film so well (alongside Hugh Jackman, obviously). Great stuff. :)
I saw this in theaters when it first came out and this scene was the showstopper where my jaw dropped and I literally felt magic like I never had before watching a film

God this scene was incredible. The acrobatics, the music, the emotion here was just gorgeous. I may or may not have teared up in the theater seeing this.

I watched this with my boyfriend that sadly is not my boyfriend anymore as we live too far apart now, and during that scene he just grabbed my hand and wouldn't let go ... this hits me right in feels every time should you read this by any chance: I love you!
Did this scene seem magical to anyone else
Yeah
Me it’s just so......
Ketrelle Danquah Yeah
j. bota i agree
MEEE
I wish they could have had more scenes with these two. Loved their chemistry!!
Yepp
filming this sequence was one of the 1st times they met, helped them bond because they had to trust each other, that shows in the rest of their scenes
Me too! But I understand why they didn't have more scenes. The movie was supposed to be about Barnum and the circus, and they needed to focus on that. If they gave too much attention to these characters, it would have derailed the original point and been overtaken by their love story, which would have been especially problematic since their characters were completely fictional, whereas the others were real or at least based on real characters. But they were a beautiful couple, and I would LOVE if Zendaya and Zac Effron pulled a Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone and just kept getting cast as love interests in a bunch of different movies, because I think they do have a phenomenal onscreen connection.
Right?
@@MissyRose94 probably doesn't help that Zacs character was the true hero of the movie in the end.
Sometimes I wonder:
*What if he missed that jump?*
OMG IKR ANNE WOULD BE DEPRESSED BUT BIG ØØF
Then they would have done another shot
Same...
Splat
Im sure he did on set sometimes. They had a net though. but um not in the this last cut. She also didn't have one just with her practices.
3:09: "It feels impossible." "It's not impossible."
*Are they talking about rewriting the stars, or conjuring a second rope into existence out of literally nowhere? Because they both happen.*
LMAO EXACTLY
lmao yes, and the hoop at 1:40 😂
Exactlyyyyyyy
YES TY!!!!! Finally someone else noticed!
Lmao I was gonna say they feel they can’t be with each other but this is funnier so I’ll accept the joke 😂
Fun fact:this whole thing was actually performed, none of it is fake, zendaya actually had to learn trapeze and zach actually had to trust that zendaya wouldn't drop him to his death when he jumped off the rail.🤣🤣😆
Not quite, they were on wires
I know!
No. Listen to the wording. Parts of it was Z and Zac. The rest was stunt doubles with wires that were edited out in post.
@@angela1984a
I saw an interview about Zac and Zendaya talking about the trapeze parts. Zendaya actually said that she had to learn trapeze in order to do those scenes.
Just a slight correction. Yes the had to learn trapeze and train hard in order to use the stunt doubles as little as possible. So your mostly right but there were stunt doubles!
It's pretty cool how she would always break away from him but he'll find a way to bring them back together.
all of the symbolism of this scene is pretty cool, from their relationship in dance/trapeze form to the way the lyrics and harmonies shift UGH I LOVE IT SO MUCH
yeeesss I like it sooo much
Like magnets.
Ok, everyone be honest with me... who else has dubbed this beautiful masterpiece as their favourite scene of that fantastic movie?!!?
FT_ Phoenix - UA-cam UM ME
Me duh
Yup.
✋
MEEE BROOO
Who else thought Zac was bout to END both their lives by jumping off that balcony ?
Yeah I don't want even to begin questioning the physics behind that stunt.
My little cousin screamed when he did that 🤣🤣🤣🤣, he thought he was committing suicide
@@angelasmith3789 LOLS.
I thought Zac was committing suicide but then wouldn't Anne be stuck up there?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The choreography for this scene is out of this world! Who ever came up with it is amazing. And the work it takes to be so precise Wonderfully done!
Haha I actually know him. He’s my aerial teacher. Look up Matthew Leopold
Aerial ropes have this dreamlike ethereal fantastic quality when performed.
I saw the aerial scene in Cirque du Soleil Worlds Away which had a similar romantic tone to this and it was breathtaking!
that's one of the reasons this is my favourite musical. the choreography is off the charts
@@amandafriedman5308 woah that’s so cool!
Agreed
"You were made to be mine," I said the same to my wife many years ago. She thought it was a stupid thought and now they sing it in songs. I think it's a pretty sentence and maybe it's the truth.
We have been together since 16. juni 1981 and married since 93.
TEJ Jensen that’s beautiful 🥺
I'm the 100th. Like 😁
God bless you brother. I will say this to whoever God wants me to be with forever. And she’ll ask “where’d ya hear that one” I’ll say “UA-cam comment section. Interesting place.”
TEJ Jensen as a single Pringle I’m interested in seeing this stuff this is the most beautiful at his in existence 🤟🏽
Beautiful 😍
Please don't ever delete this video
I know right
Amaia Thompso
agreed
year plz dont
Ikr
This scene was even more epic when I saw this in an outdoor cinema. The sky was full of stars when this scene came up
Jolijn Attema envy you
I’m jealous, Jolijn...but I got the next best thing: to see this scene in the theater.
CUZ YOU'RE A SKYYY! CUZ YOU'RE A SKYYY FULL OF STARS!!!! (Coldplay song lol)
My dream🥺💯
Jolijn Attema, that's really quite amazing
omg Zac is such a good actor he looks so genuinely heartbroken
he probably is, he likes her in real life, like, in interviews he copies her sitting position and his pupils are *huge*
bagel bites OMG are you fr????? They have a big age gap though so I didn't think he did
Did anyone know that Zac is from a musical Hair spray???
@@triciafradrick3731 yeah there is only a 9 year age gap and that is truly not all that uncommon (for adults)
It’s funny how so many think Zac likes every girl he’s with just because he’s a generally shy dude.
Anyone in 2020 that still listen to this song and keep replaying this scene....... like I can never get enough of this scene and the song it's so good
The beat, the timing, the cast. Everything was done beautifully.
Yea that’s what I’ve been doing!!! (Welp I just saw the movie for the first time last week so it feels pretty new still 😅)
My favorite ever!
I am-
2021
I never imagined the chemistry that Zac Efron and Zendeya would have.
I totally ship it! Screw Tom Zac can have her instead XD
Two ex disney
Indeed
Unexpected pairing right? But they look good together at least in this film.
The cast and the music are why I had to see this movie! And it’s more than I hoped for in a big screen musical
Hands down the most beautiful romantic moment ever in a movie to date
Any girl who says they wouldn't want to remake this with their significant other is a dang liar! lol
and any (college-aged or more) guy who says they haven't had a very similar convo with a girl is a dang liar. difference between their situation and ours is she didn't change her mind because we ran into a burning building.
lol
Ann Henry lol
I don't in am s OK fat I would break the bar XD
we just...karaoke
the part that alway gets me is at 2:41 when you look at Zac's eyes. He looked so sad when Zendaya left and he didn't want that moment to end. I LOVE the chemistry between them in this movie so much.
A lot uuuh
I agreee
It was one of the greatest performances in film history imo
It gets me every time I keep rewatching it even now
Agreed
Man Zendaya is brave. I would die. I can feel my stomach trying to exit my body just watching this. She is so graceful though.
Yeah Hugh Jackman calls her a badass!😁
@@rhythmanand7250 yeah she seems to be really proud of that. Well-Wolverine just called her badass, that's cool
@@rhythmanand7250 I would feel confident and motivated too if Hugh called me a bada$$ lol
This movie and Spider Man made me a fan of her
so zac legit just yeeted himself off that balcony as if he wouldn't break his neck and 8 bones if it went wrong
They actually said that he did injure himself a bit making that jump when this was filmed
Ikrrrr
@@KiaraLionessTM I thought they had wires??!!??
@C L A R I E there was some but.... when they were together on the ropes and they had two ropes they jad not harness or wires. They actually had to jump and perform that. Zendaya said so her self
@@georgette0807 Which part do you mean? When Zac Efron yeeted himself from the balcony surely he had wires/a harness. I know for some parts they didn't have wires and had to do a lot of training for it.

i love her hair like this, so natural and curly ahh I love jt
She did amazing in this movie. I know she worked hard to do all of her own stunts and you can tell. Her hard work paid off.
*normally talking*
Zac: *randomly starts singing*
Me: yup that's a normal this in life
well it is a musical
What I texted my friend: Watch Rewrite the stars from the greatest showman!
4 mins later...
What my friend texted me: OMG! I CANT STOP WATCHING THIS!
This song is about two people that love each other but can't be together because of their color of skin rewrite the stars means let's break the law and be together , love is not about you color its how you treat others love is about finding someone that cares about you not judged by your color that is the perpose of rewrite the stars
Please tell me what you think in here in my own comment box about what I said
Thea Martin I think very well explained☺
♥
Thank you
Idk about the whole skin colour thing,but it's mainly because people think that she's not too-ckass enough and snub her for being at the circus. But since he owned a ballet company and was respected,he wasn't judged as much.
Zac Efron’s Voice is so beautiful.
I know right
steven Massey :)
their voices separate and together is beautiful
Absolutely
Taylor has. Thank
Zac Efron’s voice has changed ever since High School Musical
I think i remember that he didn't actually sing during High School Musical- I heard that someone else sung for him, oof.
NineTailedFoxArtist only the first one, zac sang in the last 2.
He's aged like a fine whiskey.
NineTailedFoxArtist he didn’t do the first movie because his voice was changing and Disney got someone else to sing
His voice was totally different in Hairspray, i was shocked when i first heard Zac in this scene lol
These two need to work together again. Not just because of their charisma, but because they complement each other so much! This is still one of my all-time favorite movies!
I would be game depends on what the project is
I love when they fall and she goes up but Zac pulls the rope down. Awwwwww there so cute!!!!
I literally keep rewinding it to that part
I can't stop watching this it's amazing

i love how she just pulls the rope amd it pulls her away , the choreograph for this is amazing . you feel the tension between them .
Troy still ain't dropped that clueless look.
By the way, who else thought Zendaya looked like an angel walking down from heaven that first time with the hoop?
They need to do a Broadway show of this movie
this was intended to be broadway-esque XD
There was a broadway musical called “Barnum”
Agreed!!!!
They are going to.
Literally just thought that after watching this. Lol
People were crying in the movie theater! It's why I hate reviews that said the movie was too simple or didn't take chances. The fact that Carlyle has to work very hard to get Anne *alone* is a risk in today's hyper-sensitive environment and the fact that she rejects him *after this beautiful number* makes the movie complex since the cliched easy way out would've been for them to get back together then & there.
Who is Carlyle I can only remember Phillip PT charity and Anne they the only names I remember I am terrible with name
Actually even the negative reviews said this was a great scene
freyjah lolz love Carlyle is Phillip's surname
Emma Clarke oh right thanks

You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
I know you want me
So don't keep saying our hands are tied
You claim it's not in the cards
Fate is pulling you miles away
And out of reach from me
But you're here in my heart
So who can stop me if I decide
That you're my destiny?
What if we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine
Nothing could keep us apart
You'd be the one I was meant to find
It's up to you, and it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
So why don't we rewrite the stars?
Maybe the world could be ours
Tonight
You think it's easy
You think I don't want to run to you
But there are mountains
And there are doors that we can't walk through
I know you're wondering why
Because we're able to be
Just you and me
Within these walls
But when we go outside
You're going to wake up and see that it was hopeless after all
No one can rewrite the stars
How can you say you'll be mine?
Everything keeps us apart
And I'm not the one you were meant to find
It's not up to you
It's not up to me
When everyone tells us what we can be
How can we rewrite the stars?
Say that the world can be ours
Tonight
All I want is to fly with you
All I want is to fall with you
So just give me all of you
It feels impossible (it's not impossible)
Is it impossible?
Say that it's possible
How do we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine?
Nothing can keep us apart
'Cause you are the one I was meant to find
It's up to you
And it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
And why don't we rewrite the stars?
Changing the world to be ours
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
But I can't have you
We're bound to break and my hands are tied

the way he looks at her, the way he roles plays and the way he wants her... amazing scene and charters with the perfect song and perfect actors. I love their story.
Zac also singing and dancing.. you can't ask for better
This is like my 30th time watching this video because of how HARD I ship these two, also I just love the movie.
The thought of my crush spontaneously breaking into song is so romantic......anyone else?
Zoe Sherwin only if they can sing.
haha i would be immensely grateful if my crush broke into song
-even if he sounded like a dying goose on drugs...
Yep
I thought I was the only one having that fantasy!
Ooh yes because my crush sings like an angel
1:49 when It’s Anne’s turn to sing she’s so smooth with it😍😍
This is making me want to become a actor so badly
I’m 31 I once had dreams of stardom. But I’m fine just being a cinephile
What I need:
A guy
some rope pulley thingy
A big building that will soon go up in flames
And I can recreate this.
Same tho but hope ur guy won’t break all his bones jumping off a balcony for u 😂
and 911 on speed dial
This song, i personally prefer original.
Even though i love james arthur and he is a great singer, however, the reimagined one with ann-marie sounds normal for me
The song is good, but you can feel the way they sing can be heard from other songs
I think Zendaya and Zac voice suits this song better
I'm glad I'm not the only one thinks that as well Zendaya and Zac's chemistry worked so well together they nailed it big time
The chemistry between Zac and Zendaya trumps the vocal acrobatics of James Arthur and Anne-Marie.
Not saying that their cover version was bad. But this original version just has that soul that the cover did NOT have at all.
Sam Liu the original just has more soul in it. Also the context of this scene is what makes it great.
Oh hell no you got to be kidding me James Arthur and Anna Marie is way better than this crappy scene lol.
Zac and Zendaya’s hands at 0:14.
Zendaya is seriously such an amazing actress. Her facial expressions at 0:20 match the pain you can hear in her voice when she says “It’s not just them. You’ve never had somebody look at you the way you’re parents looked at me. The way everyone would look at us”
Her deep sigh at 0:30 gets me every time.
This whole song/video is just brilliant ♥️
This scene was beautiful the fact that she was holding back made it even more heartfelt his parents really need to get it through their head that their son is in love she’s holding back because his parents have this big company and he has a shot and she doesn’t want to spoil it or take it away from him but he doesn’t want the company or any of his parents money he wants her instead but she can’t see that I’m glad they were together at the end though
Zac and Zendaya though portrayed this scene so well it must’ve been so hard to sing and swing from rope to rope at the same time it was cute and romantic and the song is so fucking amazing it’s my favourite the feels oh my god 😍❤️
Whose watching this video on repeat? It's so good
I love this song it is sooo amazing
I could hear this song over and over again
Meee
2:57 "All i Want is To Fly With You".
That part gets everytime it is just so Majestic🥰🥰🥰
The choreography is mesmerizing. Best scene in the movie. Amazing.
this is what i see every time i listen to this song
I really like the way they wrote her character.. she's a vulnerable person with hurt feelings, and not a super strong woman. i actually thought they would make her confident and kinda bitchy :')
I liked that about her too. It made her more human to show that she was vulnerable and lacked self-confidence at first. People expect women to be strong and independent, but the truth is, not every person in the world, man or woman, is born independent or able to mature in that way as they go through life.
Actually, confident with a grudge on her shoulder, was my initial impression of her. But with him her more vulnerable side comes out.
I know right?
It's only because she is mixed
manu ela Yeah I really dislike that stereotype. Making the few female characters cocky, overconfident and kind of a stubborn know-it-all. The main robot chick in Detroit: become human is a good example (not Kara the other one)
When I was little I had an obsession with HSM and years later here am I watching The greatest showman...
Well somethings never change.
I hope musical movies keep coming out.
As a millennial theatre kid I know how you feel!
2:31 Okay so I was VERY high the first time I watched this. But the way she swings down and just fuggin' SLAMS into Zac so hard and without any elegance whatsoever had me SCREAM laughing first time I saw it. I had to go back and watch it a few times. Like, here's this super romantic trapeze swing scene and then out of nowhere BAM. God I still get a chuckle every time.
Nathan Ryan it’s romantic because he catches her and stops her so they are close. Not letting her run
It’s 2020 and this is still my favorite scene and song from the movie!
Mine to
Same

im in love with this scene its so beautiful in so many ways, the acting is amazing, the choreography, zac and zendaya's chemistry, the way their voices compliment each other so well. this is one of my favorite songs from the greatest showman i love it.
I LOVE how actors/performers (ESPECIALLY these two who NAILED it 🙌🏽) get a chance to play and "show" how TRAGIC it is to really want to be with and love someone, and yet they just can't!😢😭❤️👏🏽👌🏽
I blame Star Wars for making me a fan of Star crossed love
IVE SEEN THIS MOVIE 10+ TIMES AND MY EYES ARE STILL LEAKING.
Natalie Zayas-Bazan same
Zac Efron is hot that every girl should want to be his girlfriend
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooh
ikrrrrrrrrr
i think you need to get that checked XD
This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen!❤😭😭 I can't stop watching it...
That great but painful moment that I realise and can no longer deny that Zac Efron and Zendaya Coleman are FAR from one trick pony Disney "stars". Their talent is up there with the best and their chemistry is electric. They both carry this film so well (alongside Hugh Jackman, obviously). Great stuff. :)
Spider Man and Greatest Showman made me a fan of her
They were incredible in their Disney roles.
Lost count of the times i replayed this
I love this song ZENDAYA for LIFE
This is my favourite scene from the Greatest Showman and I never get tired of watching it!!! 😍😍😍
I ship them so hard omg. This is the most beautiful song and they are so beautiful
They can‘t tell me that they feel nothing in this moments ❤️
One of the most beautifully choreographed scenes in cinema history.
I imagine doing this my crush literally every day
Omg your an army!!!
This is my ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE scene from the film!
same
Whoever choreographed this song is a genius
I love how they made the floor look like the moon. It's all in the details...
I absolutely love the part when her silhouette sings to him in the final part
I think this is the best rope dance scene ever
I saw this in theaters when it first came out and this scene was the showstopper where my jaw dropped and I literally felt magic like I never had before watching a film
I had that same feeling my jaw dropped. I already loved the soundtrack! But the movie was more than I expected!
Rewrite The Stars"
(from "The Greatest Showman" soundtrack)
[Zac Efron:]
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
I know you want me
So don't keep saying our hands are tied
You claim it's not in the cards
But fate is pulling you miles away
And out of reach from me
But you're here in my heart
So who can stop me if I decide
That you're my destiny?
What if we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine
Nothing could keep us apart
You'd be the one I was meant to find
It's up to you
And it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
So why don't we rewrite the stars?
Maybe the world could be ours
Tonight
[Zendaya:]
You think it's easy
You think I don't want to run to you
But there are mountains
And there are doors that we can't walk through
I know you're wondering why
Because we're able to be
Just you and me
Within these walls
But when we go outside
You're gonna wake up and see that it was hopeless after all
No one can rewrite the stars
How can you say you'll be mine
Everything keeps us apart
And I'm not the one you were meant to find
It's not up to you
It's not up to me
When everyone tells us what we can be
How can we rewrite the stars?
Say that the world can be ours
Tonight
[Zac Efron & Zendaya:]
All I want is to fly with you
All I want is to fall with you
So just give me all of you
[Zendaya:]
It feels impossible
[Zac Efron:]
It's not impossible
[Zendaya:]
Is it impossible?
[Both:]
Say that it's possible
[Zac Efron & Zendaya:]
How do we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine?
Nothing can keep us apart
Cause you are the one I was meant to find
It's up to you
And it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
Why don't we rewrite the stars?
Changing the world to be ours
[Zendaya:]
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
But I can't have you
We're bound to break and
My hands are tied
2:24-2:57 was my favorite part. Zendaya was so elegant and graceful on that rope when Zac pulled the rope down. Idk why I teared up there but I did
Zendaya it’s simply a goddess
The last part!!!! OMG ,,you know I want you, but I can´t have you,, .... I almost cried.. so powerful. Goosebumps everywhere! 😍😍
This is so beautiful, it's like this song speaks volumes
I already loved the song before seeing the movie! But when the sequence reaches the final chorus, my jaw literally dropped!
God this scene was incredible. The acrobatics, the music, the emotion here was just gorgeous. I may or may not have teared up in the theater seeing this.
Zac effron's voice is beautiful!❤❤
It's not his voice :( So sad.

~Edit: 2:45 When Zendaya is doing that on the rope, it kinda looks like rope pole dancing XD
My absolute favorite scene of romance in any movie, ever. I forgot how visual stunning this is as well.
such a beautiful song and this scene if just gorgeous, these two have so much chemistry xx
I have to be completely honest, the trapezing looks SO fun. On top of the music and dancing this makes this my new favorite movie!
The people who disliked the video have no hearts
True😤
True
I watched this with my boyfriend that sadly is not my boyfriend anymore as we live too far apart now, and during that scene he just grabbed my hand and wouldn't let go ... this hits me right in feels every time
should you read this by any chance: I love you!
This is such an encouraging song. We can all rewrite the stars if we just have faith and determination.
From the day I listen to this song, I fell in love. This should have been nominated for best song at the oscars instead of This is Me.
This scene is absolutely stunning.
Awwwwww they look so cute together😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤🎥🎥🎥🎥🎥
R.I.P Replay button
Every gulp at the end, is acting at its zenith, authentic and genuine passion. Well done Zendeya
the greatest showman never failed to give me goosebumps.
They fact that Zac & Zendaya were the ones doing this. Is amazing. I heard it was very few when they needed stunt doubles.
The choreography, Zendaya was absolutely amazing with the ropes, the ring.Omg is just so perfect
WOOOOO the greatest showman FOR LIFE
This scene tops "can I have this dance" from HSM 3 😍😍😍
This is just so damn beautiful. The song, the dance in the air. It takes a lot to make my eyes sting and this does it.
