Rachel Zegler as Cosette in Les Miserables (BergenPAC - 2016)

[@gabbykingmusic]

you know when you see someone in a local/regional production and you know that theyre gonna be on broadway one day? thats what this is.

[@uggbootgf]

gabby king PERIOOOOOOOD

[@SirEmilyTiger]

but first: the lead in one of the most anticipated movie musical remakes of all time!

[@Rosalie1996]

Unfortunately this is ONE lucky one. It isn’t easy for even the most talented people. She got INCREDIBLY lucky.

[@gabbykingmusic]

and now she’s in west side story and Shazam and she’s gonna be Snow White like...... i really had a vision like raven huh

[@wwozanewmusical]

Nope she's in movies and showing her true ugly colors of the Wind by her tweets.

[@michaelkyledomalaon3218]

Came straight here after I heard about her being casted as Maria in the West side story remake! she’s going to be incredible!

[@MRosezhahira]

Michael Kyle Domalaon RIGHT??? she nailed Cosette here! I'm so excited to see her on the big screen!!!

[@ifeelpretty5790]

Ro I can't wait to see an actual trained musical theatre performer play a lead in a movie musical! Her legit voice is so strong and just soars, these days so many actors who try to sing in movies end up sounding strained and warbled or sing them in different keys because they can't hit the notes as they were written. She is going to conquer the film as soon as she starts singing Tonight.

[@char3205]

Dang girl hit those high notes and that vibrato tho😩

[@SeiMejoTe]

Your voice is perfect. Your range is perfect, as well. Your acting is a mixture of a perfect perfectness and a wonderful wonderfulness. You’re perfect.

[@jonathanrio6587]

But how do you REALLY feel about her singing and acting. Don't hold back! LOL She really is all you've said though!

[@alexkrycek3359]

Having just seen West Side Story today, I am now binging all of Rachel's work. Absolutely amazing. Having read all of her lovely comments to people, she is also charmingly humble and "normal". If there was ever a young lady destined for superstardom, it's Rachel Zegler.

[@Distrollerfan12]

The guy who played Marius, the girl who played Eponine and you are the most talented persons I’ve ever heard

[@AudrieSaint]

Omg the quick change from A Heart Full of Love reprise to The Wedding is a BEAST!! Good luck at ppls choice awards Rachel!!

[@riley-jx2ib]

ugh your voice is so flawless 😭😭 the final note on heart full of love was SO PERFECT omg. i would die to have your range

[@jonathanrio6587]

She SANG that high note at the end of "Heart Full Of Love"!!! NAILED IT BEAUTIFULLY!!! Girl is exploding!!!!!! Can't wait to see her on the screen!

[@ameliaaguilar365]

omggg i’ve always seen you as an Eponine but this is so good!!!🙌🙌 you are so amazing as Cosette !!!

[@melizmatea]

If you heard her on her KZbin channel, you'd think she was a belter with a pop voice - but holy moley, she has an incredible legit voice! I was wondering why they'd cast her vocal type for Maria - now I get it! She can sing Maria no problem. She's very talented - great stage presence too - your eye is drawn to her. Good for her, getting the film!

[@savannahgibbons6349]

Rachel, I’m an older musical theatre performer, and I just love watching you. You remind me so much of a younger Phillippa Soo, which probably means you are going to play Eliza when you’re older :P I’m so happy that they cast such a talented young woman as Maria. You are simply amazing ❤️

[@sapphael.]

When that last note I oh my god I am speechless, there are trained Broadway actresses who struggle to hit that note I am absolutely, and it sounded so graceful and beautiful I can't get over it I just can't.

[@nataliageraldine4047]

your vibratto is out of this world oh my god

[@unusannusfan9563]

YASSSS RACHELS VOICE IS TOO BEAUTIFUL AND PRECIOUS FOR THIS WORLD!!! If I could pick anyone to be my voice coach it would be her If I meet her someday I would cry and hug her 😭😭💖💖

[@emiliafera3129]

Your voice is beyond perfection and Les Misérables is my favorite musical of all time, so it was so fun seeing you as Cosette in this video!

[@cozetteshields2213]

Best Cosette ever, hands down!

[@jacobmccain8794]

Your voice is absolutely insane, I’m a vocal Performance major studying opera and I did musical theater since middle school, so I know how you gotta practice. You are absolutely amazing, I can’t wait for your broadway debut!!! I honestly was ready for you to go play eponine, but your amazing as cosette too!!!

[@ifeelpretty5790]

You're going to be an amazing Maria!

[@mais741]

Damnnn it's hard for me to like someone's voice who plays cosette but you've got to be one of my favourites, your voice isn't shrill and you don't overdo the vibrato

[@evabailey6068]

You have SO much talent this is ridiculous

[@carolinedavis4723]

The guy playing Marius sounds like the lovechild of Eddie Redmayne and Snow White's Prince

[@RachelZeglerLovesHugs]

that's oddly specific and TRUE!!

[@bellavitagirl4]

IIRC Marius was played by Kyle Dunn in this production. He has a fabulous voice.

[@rebecca35603]

Snow White, you say? 👀

[@utopistmsoc]

Hey Caroline, how do you feel having a reply by a movie star? :-) keep it up Zegler.

[@ailingalante8338]

You're my favorite cossette interpretation. Not only your voice is flawless, but with your acting you bring a depth that is not often seen in characters like Cossette, and I love it ❤

[@AmandaJeanajeanbway]

you know what I adore about this, dear Rachel?

[@paypaykate]

i’ve looked up to you as someone i could relate to and see myself in for a long time now. i’ve always dreamed of acting in movies and on broadway, but was constantly told i wasn’t good enough. a month ago today i finished doing les misérables with my school where i was cast as cosette. this shows me how far you have come and that my dreams are possible. if you achieved these dreams, so can i. thank you for showing me that. :)

[@dantheguitarist5823]

Beautiful voice, amazing acting! And you nailed the note at the end of a Heart Full Of Love! 😁

[@thatonenarnian5815]

Y’all I’m crying, I was supposed to be Cosette at 15, but COVID killed the production. I’m a huge Rachel fan, fantastic performance!! 🤍

[@itzia2554]

its 3 am and i am binge watching your videos (,: i regret nothing.

[@evedixon8586]

This is such a dream role of mine, and you did great at Cosette!

[@seungwoohong1938]

"The Essence of Cosette." I watched a lot of musical Les Miserable, but Rachel is the best Cosette I have ever seen. (I think that Rachel is better than other actors who played Cosette in Broadway or WestEnd. Because her voice is really clear and her breath is really good and stable. In addiction, Rachel's face expression acting is really good.) I think I know why Mr. Spielberg cast her in his movie West Side Story. She is a really good singer and actor.

[@coolguysandgalspicturestud148]

That was truly one of the most amazing thing I have ever seen in a production. You and your friends were wonderful.

[@peytona.4501]

I’m playing Cosette currently! And I love how you are making her have character and your voice is so effortless and beautiful!

[@allenn.3909]

WE SEE YOU, SNOW WHITE 💖💖

[@lolitaas6362]

being able to play cosette at fifteen in a none school version of les mis is so absolutely incredible omgg

[@Courtney-gq6so]

You are one of the most talented people I’ve ever seen. My god
