Zendaya

As reported by Hollywood Reporter, Zendaya (K.C. Undercover) is in talks to join Hugh Jackman (X-Men) in The Greatest Showman on Earth. Michelle Williams (Oz the Great and Powerful) and Zac Efron (High School Musical) are also in talks to star in the studio musical based on P.T. Barnum‘s life. Written by Michael Arndt (Toy Story 3) and directed by Michael Gracey, The Greatest Showman on Earth will feature original songs by Justin Paul (Smash) and Benj Pasek (Smash). 

Efron is being approached to play a playwright who becomes Barnum’s right hand man, while Williams will play Jackman’s love interest. Zendaya’s character will play a trapeze artist that Efron’s character falls in love with.

Zendaya has found great success on the small screen in her Disney show, K.C. Undercover, and is beginning to find success on the big screen. In addition to The Greatest Showman on Earth, Zendaya is also set to star opposite Tom Holland (Captain America: Civil War) in the upcoming Spider-Man: Homecoming.

P.T. Barnum was many things including a showman, business man, and even a politician. However, he is most known for his ability to promote hoaxes, and also for founding Barnum and Bailey’s Greatest Show on Earth. He also is credited with some of the most cynical quotes in history such as, “There’s a sucker born every minute,” and “Every crowd has a silver lining.”
