Fans are finally getting their shot to watch Hamilton, and even celebrities were excited for the premiere. On Friday, celebrities reacted to Hamilton’s debut on Disney+, sharing memories of seeing the musical live and congratulating the cast for their groundbreaking work. The live recording of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Tony-award winning musical arrived on Disney’s streaming service on July 3 — a full year before the film was intended to make a theatrical release — and fans took to social media to share their excitement.
Hamilton, which debuted at the Richard Rodgers Theater on Broadway in 2015, went on to become an international smash hit, and tickets to the production were notoriously difficult (and expensive) to score. Now, the recorded performance with the original cast, including Miranda, Leslie Odom Jr., Daveed Diggs, Renee Elise Goldsberry, and Phillipa Soo, makes the show more accessible for fans. While viewers across the globe are seeing Hamilton for the first time, even celebrities who saw the show in person were excited to watch it onscreen.
