"Heights" chronicles three days in New York City's Dominican-American neighborhood of Washington Heights. The production fused hip-hop, salsa, meringue and soul music.
Lin-Manuel Miranda, who composed and wrote the musical, is set to star in and produce the film. Quiara Alegria Hudes, who wrote the play's book, is writing the film script.
"I told the executives at Universal that they were not going to find a guy who has more of a life connection to that story," Ortega said.
"I've seen the show six times on Broadway since it opened, several times when Lin played the lead role. He blew me away with his presence and charisma."
Well Ok then...
