Lin-Manuel Miranda wants to keep directing movies, but don’t look for him to mount any large-scale spectacles. “My responsibility as a filmmaker — and I really hope to make more movies — is to make the weird little musicals that no one else can get made,” he told Rosie Perez during an appearance Tuesday at the Tribeca Festival.
His 2021 debut as a director, tick … tick … BOOM!, was “a really nice size for me,” the Hamilton creator said. “I really love working with actors.
I really love unlocking musical storytelling, and that’s the fun part.” Miranda maintained he “would never” attempt something as lavish as Wicked, the forthcoming Universal adaptation of the long-running Broadway show.
Jon M. Chu, a friend as well as the director of the film adaptation of Miranda’s In The Heights, “is going to do something amazing, and I can’t wait to see it,” he said. “I want to direct funky little musicals that no one else would make as a movie.” The hour-long entry in the Tribeca fest’s Storytellers series managed not to touch on any current events, instead zeroing in on craft and Miranda’s upbringing and influences.
