I love Janelle Monae, but she's established herself as too mature a performer to then double back and play a child (she doesn't visibly look too old, but comes off very much mature and sophisticated).
Chris Brown isn't going to happen.
There's Broadway performers more qualified to play the Lion - Tituss Burgess and James Monroe Iglehart
No problem w/ Usher
Beyonce is probably too expensive to play Glenda
Can Monique sing?
Kevin Hart absolutely can't sing, so he's out. It's also not a part for someone that short.
