Anne Hathaway Says She Could Never Compared To Lea Salonga's Les Misérables Performance
MANILA, Philippines - Hollywood actress Anne Hathaway is on the cover of the US Vogue Magazine's December issue.
Anne Hathaway is one of the outstanding casts of the world-renowned novel and musical play Les Miserablés which now has a film adaptation starring Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Amanda Seyfried, Eddie Redmayne, Samantha Barks, Sacha Baron Cohen and Helena Bonham Carter.
In her interview with Vogue, Anne Hathaway said that playing Fantine and singing "I Dreamed A Dream" which was previously performed by Lea Salonga in Broadway, was her most daunting challenge.
"A few weeks before we filmed it, I realized how I was going to have to sing it, and that it wasn't going to be pretty. First of all, it could never have compared with Patti LuPone or Lea Salonga or even my mom, really: powerful singers with big, beautiful voices. I knew I couldn't offer that, but I also knew it wouldn't be appropriate. If I went for sounding beautiful while looking like this tragic wreck, it would be ridiculous. And I saw an opportunity, because of the nature of film, to just go for it and let it be alive and present and raw."
Meanwhile, Lea Salonga expressed her appreciation to Anne Hathaway's kind words through Twitter: "Thank you, Anne Hathaway, for mentioning my name in Vogue in the same breath as Patti Lupone. Here's hoping our paths cross someday."
The Les Miserablés 2012 movie adaptation is set to hit the US theaters on December 25 and other parts of the world. Watch below its beautiful theatrical trailer released sometime last week:
