have been patiently waiting for the feature film adaptation since director Jon M. Chu came on board the project in 2016. Now, after a little, the first trailer has finally arrived — and it's as vibrant and electrifying as the New York City neighborhood that inspired it.Miranda debuted the dazzling trailer for a select group of journalists and guests at a restaurant in Washington Heights on Wednesday night , just a few blocks away from where it all began.
The film follows the lives of a diverse group of people — immigrants, children of immigrants, DREAMers, and dreamers — who live and work in Upper Manhattan's Washington Heights community.
