Honestly that’s my favorite part of all of this. Also, caught an early screening of DEH, and Ben was incredible in it. The only thing the stage show has on the movie is the live performance energy of it all. But he was brilliant. I was ugly sobbing on more than one occasion, just deeply moved.
best actor I’ve seen ever- he literally made me believe it was a real story and that he actually went through all of those thingsss hue really put his heart in it 🥺
Excellent interview! Jimmy covered everything! And Ben, be still my heart, he just keeps getting more and more lovable. And I love HIS version of Waving. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Went to an advanced screening of the movie yesterday and it was AMAZING (and this is coming from someone who has seen the Broadway show 5 times). I think they did an amazing job bringing it to life on the big screen - even added more insight into things/touched on mental health more. Ben was phenomenal (as usual) and I personally don't think any one else could have played Evan. Definitely recommend it!!
Yay, thank you so much for telling us! I love the musical so much, and I'm so excited for the movie. Ben is so brilliant, I'm thrilled to see his performance up close.
YAY! I'm seeing Ben Platt March 2nd in VA. Got the Reverie VIP experience for my BF and I. So excited. I'm a new fan but I will get caught up on his albums and interviews, etc. before then. He seems like a genuine and cool guy. Very talented and relatable. I very much connected to the film (never saw the musical or knew anything before this). Ahhh! I love him. He understands the pain and the resilience to shine through those tough experiences of the past.
I didn’t get to see it on Broadway so I was so grateful to get to see it for the first time on the big screen and sis I was SOBBING! Bring lots of tissues 😭
I saw DEH like a month into its Broadway run & I was like this needs to be on film. Shame I live in Australia & have to wait until December to see it in cinemas.
Ben , your album Reverie 🤩 is divine 😘 You are in my ears all day every day! Scouring U Tube constantly for any new sightings (sigh ) of you!! Obsessed with all of you 🔥🔥😍😘
5:05 "It's so rare musicals get the privilege of becoming movies," yea thank goodness we only have Grease, Zoot Suit, Little Shop of Horrors (and a remake), Cry-Baby, Rocky Horror Picture Show, West Side Story (and a remake), In The Heights, Rent, Into the Woods, Phantom of the Opera, Sweeney Todd, Les Miserables, Cats, and an inevitable Wicked and Hamilton movie on the way to show for such a rarity in the industry. Not to mention dad being stable working Academy Award nominated Hollywood producer. Wouldn't it be more interesting if these sons of nepotism just embraced their privilege and made it part of their work?
sure, there’s lots of movie musicals, but compare the number of movie musicals compared to the total amount of musicals there are and have existed, and you’ll see that actually, it’s very rare when a broadway musical gets the chance of becoming a movie.
The musicals you have mentioned are huge and have been shows for a long time so of course they were made into movies but there are a lot more musicals than those movies so 🤷♀️
me to Jimmy's "mind blown" reaction at 2:20 "yea jimmy pretty wild that famous and wealthy family dynasties land the big opportunities they pushed hard for" lmao
Darn it, Ben! Not "Wicked." LOL Someone asked him several months ago what he would do when Broadway reopened and he said that he was going to see every show possible. I was at reopening night of "Waitress" and I was like, "OMG! What if Ben shows up?!" He didn't. 🤷♀️
"I never assumed this would happen"... um. Ok. From your other interviews and the fact that your father produced the film... kinda makes it look like you DO know it would happen lol

I see what you did there……GOOD ONE
But way more talented!
He looks like darren criss
1:16 Honestly that is so relatable. Wouldn't we all just instinctively walk into Lin's arms?

And Ben, be still my heart, he just keeps getting more and more lovable.
And I love HIS version of Waving. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Jimmy is always so kind and proud of Ben.
The Tony's, Beanie, New Music, the Movie, there is alot going on in this interview lol
Ben Platt is such a sweet guy ❤️
Ben really NAILS this interview.

It was way too long. He looks too old for the part. Some shows shouldn’t get adapted for the screen.
@@MAAivoges Fr, the movie was beautiful, but like ben looks younger in the interview than he does in the movie AHAJ
That "YES BARBARA!" was so Noah Galvin 🥰🥰
Exactly what I thought. lol I was like "I just heard Ben channel Noah there."
What a beautiful song from DEH....tears in my eyes....

Congratulations Ben!🌠 Keep making a difference in so many ways! Thank you!
If I worked on the set of the DEH film, I too would cry after every song.
You need to see the end of his performance, Ben and Jimmy hugged….tears in my eyes…faith of the humanity restored. 🌺🌹🌈💖
Wish they’d kept that in the video. Sigh…
God I love Ben Platt! I just want to sit, drink wine and chat with him. Such a cool guy.
Omg me too!! Hope to meet him one day!!
I’m gonna need lots of tissues for DEH
I recommend bringing a big box of them. Saw the show in the city and BOY was I in tears

Can we just appreciate his nails?
I KNOW RIGHT

Love ❤ him, and wow, his rocking those 💅 nails
I saw DEH like a month into its Broadway run & I was like this needs to be on film. Shame I live in Australia & have to wait until December to see it in cinemas.
opening night girly we'll be there
Ben:I looked like I had just smoked a ton of crack
My brain: “if I stop smoking crack (crack?)”💀💀
Can't wait for Dear Evan Hansen. Too bad I never got to see the Broadway show. Hope it's good. He soft spoken.
Those boots are fabulous ❤️
YOU ARE AWESOME JIMMY!!!
Obsessed with him😍
I love his nails!!
The nails 💙💙💙💙

Saw the movie last night and it was fire 🔥!!!
Lol, tell me you're Jewish without telling me you're Jewish, Barbara Streisand...👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I’ve been waiting here XD
Ben Platt and Beanie Feldstein are the real Will & Grace!!
WHERE DID WAVING THROUGH A WINDOW GO?! Why did they take it down? It was my FAVORITE performance of that song. 😫
He looks like Lil Dickey 😂
Lil Dicky + David Dobrik
@@prestigeworldwide9852 omg yes 😂😂
He'll be good for a Trixie Mattel make up. 😍😍😍
love it
Wow❤️
Awesome
SO STOKED
I’m so ready for DEH

Why did I read the title as "Brad Pitt"

I’m sure a little nepotism has opened doors for Ben, but you can’t deny how talented he is.

What happened to the video of him performing? :(
good video
7:12
I wonder if the actors sang live in the film..
" I wanna love you but I don't"
Nice 👍
me to Jimmy's "mind blown" reaction at 2:20
"yea jimmy pretty wild that famous and wealthy family dynasties land the big opportunities they pushed hard for" lmao
It's not like he has no talent lol, he just also happens to be rich
People viewing these comments wish their parents had been alive for more than years, God bless your family 🥰🙏👍😊❤
>>>>>> #SO MUCH INCREÍBLE EXCELLENT WORK>>>>>>>
3:38 Okay, let's admit, he is too old to play THAT role again! :-)
When did Ben Platt evolve into Lil Dickie
Where's the hug?
Darn it, Ben! Not "Wicked." LOL
Someone asked him several months ago what he would do when Broadway reopened and he said that he was going to see every show possible. I was at reopening night of "Waitress" and I was like, "OMG! What if Ben shows up?!" He didn't. 🤷♀️
❤
😍
Wow
Those red bottoms tho 😜
Literally looks younger here than in the DEH movie. That makeup/hair choice will forever confuse me…
Yep yep
I don't get it either
Glee
But?🥸who is the lil gal with NO
"I never assumed this would happen"... um. Ok. From your other interviews and the fact that your father produced the film... kinda makes it look like you DO know it would happen lol
There are a lot of videos that I don't see because you don't make them available, why are you a racist? #racist ???
