Taylor Swift is competing for a movie role with Scarlett Johansson and Lea Michele.
What movie? Les Misérables (or did the picture give it away?)
Taylor Swift in Les Miserables movie?
We shall see. Here’s what we know thus far about the casting rumors: A source close to the film confirmed that Taylor, Scarlett, and Lea have all auditioned for the role of Eponine.
It is widely thought that they are all in competition for the role of Eponine, anyway, which according to the New York Post gossip column Page Six, for which Swift, who will next be heard in The Lorax, has already auditioned.
But can Taylor Swift be the one after her continued (and ongoing) success winning Grammy’s and just about every music recording industry award you can get… can she do this movie roll? There’s 25 years of theatre history with Les Miserables, and millions of fans of past actresses who, for all intents and purposes, defined the role over the years. Does Talyor Swift have what it takes to take the acting / singing roll to a new level? Maybe… we’ll have to wait and see if she gets the chance.
Lots of rumors going around, but rumors are great to help show casting agents who they should put in the roll ;)
Michele who has experience with Les Miserables after appearing on Broadway in 1995 and Johansson are said to have tried out for the role alongside Evan Rachel Wood.

The Working Title and Universal movie is already stocked with stars, including Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Eddie Redmayne and Geoffrey Rush.
With a cast like that, maybe it doesn’t matter if Taylor Swift uses Autotune. (oohh yes I did)
