Les Miserables The cast is loaded with talent – and they’ve done a lot since the film’s release over a decade ago.
I’ve been obsessed with movie musicals for as long as I can remember. I like reconsider Oh mom!check hit movie Chicago, and even dance in my room while I’m reconsidering Hair fixation spray. No matter what kind of movie the musical is, I love watching it again. Les Miserables it was a musical that I loved for a while as a kid. I recently decided to review it, and my opinion of the film has changed significantly as my knowledge of the original musical has expanded. But do you want to know what remains the same? My love for Les Miserables throw.
I’m not sure what Tom Hooper did to assemble an ensemble with such talent, but Les Miserables The cast is one of the most stellar ensemble musicals I’ve seen in a long time. From Hugh Jackman to Russell Crowe to Anne Hathaway, there’s a host of actors we’ve seen in big films, big TV shows and incredible productions.
If you’re wondering where Les Miserables cast more than a decade after the film’s premiere, here’s what they’ve been up to.
Hugh Jackman (Jean Valjean)
The first on this list is a star Les Miserables, Hugh Jackman. He played Jean Valjean, and while I personally don’t agree with making him the main character, his performance in the film was superb. He ended up being nominated for an Academy Award. Jackman has always been involved in theater and musicals, so his stay in Les Miserables has the meaning.
Jackman continued to develop his musical talents after his role in the film. Not only did he host the 2014 Tony Awards, where he gave an impressive opening performance featuring several major Broadway stars, but he also starred in the hit musical. The Greatest Showman (which honestly needs a sequel). He was also a star of the Broadway revival Music Man in 2022.
In addition, Jackman appeared in a lot of cinema since his role in Les Misérables. He ended his time as Wolverine in X-Men film franchise, but he will reprise this role one last time in upcoming Deadpool 3, which suspended filming due to the 2023 writers’ strike.
Jackman has also appeared in films such as Front Runner, Poor Education, Prisoners, Son and was a star Memory throw in 2021. He also had a recurring voice role on the hit Netflix show. Human resources and recurring role on Hulu Koala Man. He will be in a new movie called Apostle Paul and a new mini-series called Distant Downs next.
Russell Crowe (Javert)
Russell Crowe played Javert in Les Miserables, and I’ll freely admit that I didn’t really care about his casting, like most people. Crowe is not necessarily known for his singing abilities. However, the actor incredible talented, and since then he has starred in many films.
His most famous films include Goodfellas, The Mummy, Mad, Noah (where he played the main character), Poker Face, And The greatest beer run of all time. He also depicted Zeus in Thor: Love and Thunder, and he was a part of the 2023 horror movie Papal exorcist. Crow also voiced Ark: animated series.
Crowe has a lot of new projects coming up in the next few years. He will be part Kraven the Hunter throw, and he’s going to appear in films like “Georgetown Project”, “Taste of Blood”, “Sleeping Dogs”, Rothko, and more.
Anne Hathaway (Fantine)
Les Miserables The cast is incredible, but no one tops Anne Hathaway, who played Fantine in the film. The actress won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role, and since then she’s starred in some pretty incredible projects. We even compiled a rating of her best films.
Personally, my favorite performance of hers was when she co-starred in Interstellar, one of Christopher Nolan’s best films I looked in 2023. In addition, Hathaway has appeared in films such as The Intern, Alice Through the Looking Glass, Ocean’s 8, Locked Down, The Witches, She Came to Me, Eileen, and more.
The actress also played a role in the Amazon Prime TV show. Modern love for two episodes. Hathaway will star Maternal instinct and several other films such as The idea of you, Mother Mary, Lifeboat, And Boom Rush in the coming years.
Amanda Seyfried (Cosette)
I’ve always loved Amanda Seyfried in any musical role, and she was the perfect choice as Cosette. Les Miserables showed the full power of her musical talent. And since then, Amanda Seyfried has starred in some great films.
She was in the sequel. Oh mom! Here we go again, and she also starred in other films such as “The Big Wedding”, “Epic”, “A Million Ways to Die in the West”, “Gringo”, “Ted 2”, “Pan”, “The Art of Racing in the Rain”, “Scoob!”, “Things Heard and Seen”, And Breath of air.

Seyfried will appear in a new film called My ex-friend’s wedding next, so be sure to check it out.
Eddie Redmayne (Marius Pontmercy)
Marius Pontmercy was Cosette’s love interest and one of the rebel fighters in Les Miserables, and Eddie Redmayne portrayed him. This was my first time seeing Redmayne, so his performance in this film holds a special place in my heart.
A year later, Redmayne won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in Theory of everything where he played Stephen Hawking. Apart from this, Redmayne also gained widespread fame for his role as Newt Scamander in Fantastic Beasts franchises in the world Harry Potter.
In addition to this, Redmayne has starred in several other films, including “The Danish Girl”, “The Trial of the Chicago 7”, “The Aeronauts”, “The Good Nurse”, And Early man. In the near future he will play the main role in a new series called Day of the Jackal.
Helena Bonham Carter (Madame Thenardier)
Helena Bonham Carter is probably one of my favorite actresses, and her role as Madame Thenardier in Les Miserables is iconic in the best sense of the word. Since then, the actress has starred in many films.
My pick for her best post-filmLe Mis it’s live action Cinderella, where she played the Fairy Godmother. She also appeared in Enola Holmes movies on Netflix, “One Love”, “Alice Through the Looking Glass”, “Ocean’s 8”, “Suffragette”, And The lone ranger.
Carter also played the role of Princess Margaret on the hit Netflix series for two seasons.

She will star in two new films. Offensive And Four letters of love and she will also appear in the David Copperfield series.
Sacha Baron Cohen (Monsieur Thenardier)
I can’t think of a better actor to play Monsieur Thenardier. Les Miserables, especially with Helena Bonham Carter than with Sacha Baron Cohen. Cohen has acted in films since then. Les Miserables, including Alice in the Wonderland And Trial of the Chicago 7 and he voiced a role in the emotional Pixar film. Luke.
Cohen made a particularly big splash when he released Subsequent film “Borat” a sequel to his popular film will be released in 2020 Borate. The film received excellent reviews and received several Academy Award nominations.
He also created, wrote and starred in Who is America? and was in six episodes Spy row. Cohen will appear in a new miniseries called Denial of responsibility and two new films called Mandrake Wizard And Super toys.

Bear Grylls: Mission to Survive.
Following her film role, Barks focused primarily on theater, appearing in various plays and musicals, including Chicago, Chess, Frozen, The Last Five Years, Amelie, City of Angels, Honeymoon in Vegas, And Pretty Woman: The Musical.
Aaron Tveit (Enjolras)
Enjolras was not as big a star as Marius, but he certainly had an impact on Les Miserables, and Aaron Tveit is the reason for this. The actor starred in several films, including Big Sky, Better Of Single, Out of Blue, And Created equal but mostly stuck to television.
He was part Graceland And Brain dead he was also part of the stack Shimigadun! main cast. He had several recurring and guest roles on shows such as Good fight, Codex, And American Horror Stories too much. Tveit also stuck to the theatre, appearing in productions such as Company, Killers, and more recently, Moulin rouge!, for which he received a Tony Award.
Daniel Huttlestone (Gavroche)
Finally we have Daniel Huttlestone, who played Gavroche in Les Misérables. While the character is important, Huttlestone hasn’t played much since then. He appeared in In the forest in a prominent role and later appeared in films Friday Loading, London Town, And Lost City of Z, but has since stopped working.
There are so many talented stars on this list that I need to catch up with, and now I feel like I need to do several movie marathons to celebrate all of their incredible films. Is anyone else ready to watch? Oh mom! again and again with me?
