Warner Bros. is moving full steam ahead on its adaptation of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Tony award-winning musical with the In the Heights release date officially set for June 26, 2020.
In the Heights explored three days in New York City’s Dominican-American neighborhood of Washington Heights and featured hip-hop, salsa, merengue and soul music.
With “Hamilton” a runaway Broadway success and Miranda becoming a household name, attracting talent may not be as difficult this time.
The only other movie currently in that release date is an untitled 20th Century Fox Marvel movie, which could never see the light of day should the Fox/Disney merger go through.
