Hathaway Being Considered for Les Miserables

Anne Hathaway is being considered for the role of Fantine in the movie version of Les Miserables.
The film that is being made by Tom Hooper already has Hugh Jackman on board and apparently Jackman has been trying to get Hathaway to jump on board for quite a while.
Hathaway would no doubt bring huge star pulling power to the feature film adaptation of the musical, and we’ve already seen her demonstrate her singing abilities in the past, she even performed with Jackman at the 2009 Academy Awards ceremony.
Despite not being the biggest role in the musical, Fantine is a crucial character to the plot, as she is the mother of the musical’s heroine Cosette.
By the looks of things this film remake may shape up to be something amazing, even though there is no more news at the moment, the film is expected to land at the end of the year and with Wolverine currently on hold Jackman is most definitely available.
So lets hope there's more news soon, and fingers crossed Miss Hathaway will be joining.
