...because they can sing and act.
I don't know about Cruz and Hudson's voices, or Fergie's acting.
When it comes to Day-Lewis? *sucks in through teeth* I'm nervous about the singing, because it's not easy, but if ANYONE can do it, it's DDL. I like the casting of Bardem a little bit more simply because of the European look Bardem has, but DDL is an outstanding second place.
It's very similar to Chicago in staging, so Rob Marshall should make it look and sound beautiful, with terrific choreography and gorgeous sets and lighting.
I'd say Day-Lewis would have to really drop the ball for this to not be a front-runner for many Oscars.
