My Falsettos Fancast but Early Sesame Street Actors (I think I have a problem ngl)
Marvin: Emilio Delgado
He was the first idea for the role
And he just stuck ig
I think he'd have done good his eyes kinda remind me of Borle's
Trina: Loretta Long
Idk if she could hit all the notes but idc she would DEVOUR
Also was the first idea and stuck
I'm Breaking Down would have been so cool...
Whizzer: Northern Calloway
Whizzer was originally gonna be someone else
But then I realized that Northern sounded a bit like him
He also just fit
Mendel: Bob Mcgrath
Was originally gonna be Whizzer
But I think this would have been silly
I feel like he'd have been a weird mix of OBC and Revival Mendel but idk
Dr. Charlotte: Sonia Manzano
Sound slightly similar for one
I think she'd have just done really good in this role
Maybe some notes would have been changed around but that's okay
Cordelia: Alaina Reed Hall
Technically would be a better Dr. Charlotte BUT
I had already decided on Sonia and didn't wanna change it
And couldn't think of anyone else
Don't have a specific one for Jason just a child ig erm extra stuff aka like doodles
The Video I Made frfr:
+ some extra things I made
