The film, which stars Amy Adams, Julianne Moore, Kaitlyn Dever, Amandla Stenberg, Nik Dodani, Danny Pino, Colton Ryan, and DeMarius Copes, is directed by Stephen Chbosky & also sees Ben Platt reprising his Broadway character of Evan Hansen.

The film version is written for the screen by the show’s Tony winner Steven Levenson with music and lyrics by the show’s Oscar, Grammy, and Tony-winning songwriting team of Benj Pasek & Justin Paul, best-known for their work on La La Land and The Greatest Showman.
