Hugh Jackman has been attached to the P.T. Barnum biopic The Greatest Showman on Earth since 2009, but the film has taken a long time to come into fruition.
The project is attracting some in-demand names, and Jackman seems tailor made for the role of Barnum.
Today, one of last year’s breakout stars, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation‘s Rebecca Ferguson, secured one of those parts and is set to join the star-studded ensemble.
While Greatest Showman has several talented people in front of the cameras, some questions remain about the man calling the shots.
