You'll be back?! After Hamilton 's creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda revealed that he's open to returning to the hit tuner over the years in the titular role, Tony winner Leslie Odom Jr. has admitted that he wouldn't mind revisiting Aaron Burr. "Absolutely! I would do this part in this show anywhere in the world at anytime," the Broadway.com vlogger told The Hollywood Reporter. "I love this show; I love this part."
Odom Jr. originated the role of Burr in Hamilton off-Broadway and received a 2016 Tony Award for playing the character on the Main Stem; he is set to depart the musical on July 9, along with Miranda. Odom Jr. made his Great White Way debut in Rent; he also appeared in the original cast of Leap of Faith on the Main Stem. His screen credits include Smash. Odom Jr.'s self-titled jazz album is out via S-Curve Records now.
What about the star's future projects? As Broadway.com broke yesterday, Odom Jr. has been workshopping a stage adaptation of The Sting in the Robert Redford role.
