On today's Dish, our Sonia Isabelle is breaking down the latest A-List streamers from Lin-Manuel Miranda to Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
Vivo - Netflix
Lin-Manuel Miranda is the genius behind Hamilton and In The Heights. But in Netflix's Vivo, get ready to see Miranda in a way you've never seen him before. Yes, he is still working on original music to craft a beautiful soundtrack. However, you may be shocked by what other role Miranda is playing in the actual movie. In Vivo, Lin plays the title character, a fun-loving kinkajou (AKA honey bear) who spends his days entertaining crowds in a vibrant Havana square. When asked what it was like to write music for Vivo, Miranda said:
"I've never written music for singing and talking anthropomorphic animals before."
Miranda's costars include Gloria Estefan, Brian Tyree Henry, Zoë Saldana, and more. Stream Vivo on Netflix now.
Annette - Amazon Prime Video
An unlikely duo makes magic in the new film Annette. The 2021 Cannes Film Festival official selection stars Adam Driver and Marion Cotillard as a stand up comedian and a world famous opera singer, respectively. The title of the film refers to the name of their daughter and how her birth affects the couple. Annette has been met with favorable reviews from critics and received a standing ovation at Cannes. Cotillard was actually the third actress to be cast in the role of Ann; Rooney Mara was the original choice for the role, but she was later replaced by Michelle Williams. There was a 2 year delay in shooting which has been attributed to Driver's commitment to Star Wars. Ultimately, Cotillard took up the role of Driver's love interest. Annette is in theaters now and will be on Amazon Prime Video later this month.
