I love how Will Roland's Jeremy is just like "😦" for half the show- the way he actually opens his mouth when he's surprised is so silly- I love himmmmm- <3

wc fans try not to bring down wr challenge go!

but genuinely, me personally i prefer will c and will r in their own different ways. you don’t always have to make stuff complicated !! there was a reason after all that wr was casted as jeremy. i’m trying not to go there but atp just say you don’t like seeing actual autistic rep. wr himself said that he was playing jeremy as a neurodivergent, and as a autistic person myself i’ve never felt more represented in media.

“will roland butchered the vocals!!” “will roland plays the roll weirdly!!” “will roland does to much!!” SHUT DHOP. IF YOU ACTUALLY PAYED ATTENTION. YOUD REALIZE… ITS TWO DIFFERENT ACTORS!! 🙀🙀 MAYBE.. JUST MAYBE.. THEY PLAYED THE ROLES DIFFERENTLY! 🙀 “will roland butchered the vocals!!” if you look closely.. he’s playing A TEENAGER.. have you ever thought that MAYBE just MAYBE some of the choices were PURPOSELY DONE. “he plays the role weirdly” will roland himself said that he played the role to be seen as autistic representation maybe you just don’t like proper representation 🤗🤗 i lobe wc but oh my god do not slander another actor for it 😭😭

[hole34]

almost every other actor playing jeremy: ...but i-i am a masturbator..😶

will roland: OH I AM A MASTURBATER! 😃

will roland's voice in loser geek whatever

reblog if you agree

[ron456]

AHHHHH- IM SO SICK OF THE BS I SWEAR-

FIRST OF ALL-

He doesn't "act naturally" or "normal" because HE'S AUTISTIC-

Will Roland portrays him as AUTISTIC so he's gonna act AUTISTIC-

ALSOOOO- IT'S BROADWAY, BABE- THEY NEED TO BE OVERDRAMATIC AND VERY EXPRESSIVE OTHERWISE THE PREFORMANCE DOESN'T CARRY THROUGH THE WHOLE THEATRE-

AND ANOTHER THING- Jeremy is supposed to be a "loser"-

he gets bullied and is misunderstood by his peers because he is, well, NOT CHILL-

HE'S "CHALANT" AS HELL-

He gets bullied because he cares about things too much, he's anxious, he's loud-

And in regards to the "can't hold a note for too long"- have you heard Loser, Geek, Whatever? Or More Than Survive? Or Two Player Game??? Song where he holds notes for quite a long time- ALSO- to say that Will Roland can't reach the same notes as Will Connolly is just... not true.

And one of the reasons I think some people think Will Roland is "a worse singer" is because, sometimes, stylistically, Will Roland will use a sort of falsetto/head voice (which I LOVE BTW AND IM SICK OF PEOPLE CALLING OTHER PEOPLE BAD SINGERS BECAUSE THEY USE HEAD VOICE- IT'S BEAUTIFUL, IMPRESSIVE, AND REQUIRES GOOD BREATH CONTROL TO MAKE IT NOT SOUND CRAPPY AND WILL ROLAND DOES IT AMAZINGLY) like when he says "hero" and "Rob Dinero" (idk if that's how you spell it 😭) in More Than Survive.

It's not that he's a bad singer, he is taking the brunt of his voice during those parts and also, given that it's this little solo/soliloquy moment for Jeremy, I think that Will Roland's choice to use a light head voice there is perfectly well-placed. It feels kinda personal, I guess. And I love it <3

Not to say that Will Connolly's way of singing it isn't also great. It's awesome! But like, guys, we can't keep getting pissed when a new actor in a show doesn't have the exact same singing voice as the original 😭 That's just silly, guys. 😭

(LIKE WHEN PEOPLE GOT PISSED AT ELIZABETH TEETER'S LYDIA FOR SOUNDING TOO MUSICAL THEATRE-Y?? LIKE. HUH?!? GUYS, IT'S BROADWAY- WHAT DO YOU MEANNN??? Sorry, I have feelings- Also, Shoutout to Elizabeth Teeter, btw, cuz' she slayed <3)

Anywaysss- back to Will Roland's voice- he is very much capable of hitting the notes that Will Conolly hits- if not higher (IT'S NOT A COMPETION THO, GUYS- PLS DONT COME FOR ME). For example, the acoustic version of Loser, Geek, Whatever on Spotify which, I believe, is a key higher than usual!! This man can belt some high notes when the situation calls for it! And also, (these are not really bmc related but whatever) during the harmony or whatever at the end of "Sincerely, Me", that is none other than WiLL RoLaND (!!!) hitting that high E (I'm pretty sure it's an E. I hope it's an E. But regardless, it's still a SUPER HIGH NOTE) at the end! And in "Amphibian" on Joe Iconis' album titled, well, "Album", Will Roland hits some insanely high notes!!! ( EVEN IF THEY ARE HEAD VOICE. I REPEAT, HEAD VOICE DOES NOT MEAN BAD SINGER!!)

Also, as a little additional statement to my "Jeremy is autistic/ autistic-coded so Will Roland played him as autistic"; this is not to say that Will Conolly didn't add some "autistic flare", if you will, to Jeremy. I mean, just yesterday I was freaking out with my friend about a gif of Will Conolly's Jeremy doing the autistic flappy hands :))). And I think that he was a good baseline for other Jeremy's to build off of!

Also, I feel like the people that are saying that Will Roland's portrayal of autism/neurodiversity is "ableist" or "incorrect" or "too dramatic" are sorta failing to understand/acknowledge that autism/neurodiversity is a spectrum. Not every person with autism or another kind of Neurodiversity is gonna act the same. And I think that's something really beautiful that we should all cherish. It is GREAT that we are all different but also, in many ways, the same!

And to see myself and my uncontrolled speaking voice and weird noises and such represented by Will Roland on stage is such a beautiful thing that I think 'ought to be cherished.

erm erm for your bmc art requests you should draw transfem jeremy please i beg 😭🙏🙏 i don’t care what version you draw but if you wanna differentiate it from Jenny maybe you could do Will R 🥺🙏🙏

this is p much @chickensoupbmc 's transfem jer design but shes absolutely the cutest thing ever i heart her so bad

[nonbinarychair]

"You can't make Jeremy trans! Jeremy isn't trans !" EXPLAIN THIS THEN

[violyet]

When will 2rivers be more chill fans realize it’s disrespectful and rude to draw the 2rivers cast with Broadway bmc songs??😭😭

idgaf which cast you prefer or draw but don’t hate on the Broadway cast and then use their song and draw NOT the people singing in it??? Yall are using Broadway upgrade and drawing 2 white actors to 2 black actors voices when half of the cast is the same anyway whyyyy 😭😭 go hate on will Roland but using HIS voice and drawing will c to it jsut makes you look incredibly dumb 😍🤞🤞🤞 you use YOUR albums songs and if you want to use the broadway songs draw THAT CAST. the voices don’t even match up to the other actors like it makes no sense 😭

As a fan of both casts it pisses me off 😭😭😭 Broadway bmc gets no representation anyway and for the only animatics or fanarts of Broadway songs to be the 2rivers cast when they literally get EVERYTHING else is soooooo annoying DO BETTER CHAT 😡😡😡😡

Drawing Jake Boyd to Britton Smiths Jake is sooooo racist!!!!!!! So stop 🥰🥰🥰🥰 not that hard to use correct audios!

[nerdz-hq]

The amount of times I’ve seen people do “Will Roland Jeremy” art but all they did is draw Will Connolly and throw him into the outfit that Will R wore :///
