Dear Evan Hansen Cast Answer The Web's Most Searched Questions | WIRED 

They both seem such nice people, like you'd have a good time just hanging out with them

I refuse to believe that not a single autocomplete question asked "How old is Ben Platt?"

"theatre kids are pretty nice until you try to change a musical you love and then they come for you" I feel personally attacked

These are the most chill theater kids I’ve ever seen

Rue making us feel old for 15 minutes

the way ben says "i remember you" in 3:59 has me melting, he's so wholesome

It's crazy to me that people don't know who Amandla is

Their energy together is so great! Really calming and you can tell they really pay attention to each others words!

“Thank you, performing live gives me such a rush”.

They both are so pure

13:29 I love how Ben just barrels right past his friends' embarrassment in order to hype them. He's so sweet.

amandla’s “what ben platt” had no business being that funny

7:53, why does Ben look like the little bears in the Lorax?? 😂 love it though

This is one of the only wired videos that really feels like they’re genuine friends

they're so calm I could fall sleep to their voices

Ben Platt Mrs Drew Barrymore and the entire Dear Evan Hansen cast makes me believe I will overcome my Autism challenges and will win my Academy Award. I am proud of all my heroes have done to inspire their fans and heroes and I wish them all the best

Amanda has a very nice speaking and singing. Wow gurl !!

Ben platt has been my favorite artist for quite some time now, I just watched his performance on AGT and I almost cried, he’s so freaking gooooooood

I wish I could have a conversation with them🥺 they seem like really nice people to hang out with

How can he forget he sang VIENNA!! Lol only a favorite

I can’t believe that I knew Amandla music before I even knew her as an actress. Honeywater has some really good songs, I dunno why she’d be ashamed of it 🥺🥺

How could I forget the Father of the Bride part 3 thing. I was obsessed with those movies when I was little so having a follow up was amazing. 💜✨

I’ve never seen or heard of these 2 people before now- but they both seem really amazing and I def wanna see them act in something now dear Evan Hansen and I’ll look up what else they’re in (I guess I watched Amandla in the hunger games? But I’ve read the books so many times that I can’t remember the movies)

how lucky we are to live when Ben Platt is alive 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️

They are so..... FREAKIN FUNNY🤣🤣

So I see the word "wholesome" is getting tossed around a lot in this comments section... and I'm gonna go right ahead and toss it around some more. They are both just so frikken wholesome.

I did NOT know she played Rue!! Now I really wanna watch Dear Evan Hansen 😁

Hearing Ben Platt say the phrase “little Jewish hats” was not what I knew I needed today, but it was.

Ben is the NICEST, the most HUMBLE AND the most GORGEOUS human being

She has loving eyes. He has a good ear. There comforting.

Ben platt talking about summer camp color war at 11:29 made my life complete

Yesssssss girl Amandla !!!🇿🇦

FINALLY BEN PLATT IS DOING THIS INTERVIEW

Rue is all grown up!! that makes me feel old somehow.

People talking sh*t about Ben Plat, keep it to yourself and stop being mean!!! He played the role ✨PERFECTLY✨ in that movie. And I’ve been listening to the songs on repeat ever since I watched it.

12:47 THE WAY THEY SANG THIS WAS SO FUNNY

I never thought I could see these two amazing people together in a movie. I love them both.

OMG!!!! When amandla just mentioned colombiana I screamed with excitement. She was so great in that movie and she was only 9 !!! Love her❤️

Awwwww when Ben was plugging Amandla's song :3 😂❤

I remember watching hunger games over and over again and now im in this mind blowing realization about the fact that she played rue in the hungergames. That question hit HARD

10:53 Bb happens to be the high notes at the end of waving through a window, and for forever even has a short belted B natural near the end, bless his soul for doing that 8 shows a week

We are all Dale Doback...it's not about earning things it's about who you know.

okay but imagine being in your high school musical with stinkin ben platt

12:27 funny and wholesome 😂

this is just so nice to watch and listen to

these people sound like they could never hurt you physically and emotionally. please be my comfort pillows (esp. u Benji Applebaum)

They are beyond gorgeous.

I love this so much! 😍

She’s so pretty

Two very gorgeous human beings inside and out ugh

i literally love them sm

i can’t wait to see the movie!! only a month left!!!!!!!

Really liked this one.

Even with the beard, Ben’s face will always have a sense of childhood wonder. (If that makes sense….)

My question is, why ask him what his phone number, it’s such a personal question.

Fav actor

Doja and Amandla low-key give me the same vibes

Ben Platt can't even do a mean face when he tries 😭🥺

It seems like the rising stars aren't complete without a WIRED Interview. It's a perfect set-up for this forthcoming effort, which I'm sure will be a success. Best of luck to you both, Mr. Platt & Ms. Stenberg. #WIREDACI #ActorFraternity

WAITTT SHE'S RUE IN THE HUNGER GAMES NO WAY :D

I'm glad Amanda asked what Cameo is. I was clueless

They’re as high as a kite 🪁

they're both so awkward i love it

Yea camp Ramah!!!!!!!!!!!! We love camp ramah! You can find them anywhere they are an incredible experience a wonderful family!

Amandla I need you to bring back Honeywater nowwwww

i thank god for ben platt

12:30 is very sweet

"is ben platt nice" "no"

Some people didn’t like the fact that he played Evan Hansen when I was like who else can play Evan Hansen better than ben platt. Absolutely nobody

I swear I just watched Amanda in hunger games and now all of a sudden she is so much older

ben platt matches a labradoodle

I deal with mental health every day 24/7

Omg I didn’t realize she was Rue

next do nik dodani and colton ryan and kaitlyn dever

I share bday with Amandla... I've won life

Omg, when I was in 3rd grade, I played Theo, Pippins son I believe. Very good.👍

1:13 accurate

y'all are telling me SHE PLAYED RUE???

7:10 OMG YESS LIBRA!!!

Not me just figuring out i have the same bday as ben lmao

amandla’s so fine

is amanda the one that on dear evan hansen movie asked evan what hes taking about his condition?omg for a little while i loved her character but after she uploads the letter that evan specifically asked her not to share with anyone i hated her cause she ruined evans life

My birthday is October 23rd, too!!!

I love you Ben❤

Sunday in the Park with George is my favourite musical too. My second favourite is Dear Evan Hansen. It's a very close race. Stay tuned.

Love you Ben, you’re my favorite artist ❤️

I never new she was in the hunger games

Both seam like nice people. She share a birthday with my mom. Love these wired complet interviews because it get to learn new things about people.

I didn’t know Amandla was Rue!

Yay, Ben is a Libra!🥰

It's how she pronounces Xhosa😂 very cute🤭

Q: Is Ben Platt nice? Opinion Time: I do believe he's a sweetheart on a typical day, but regarding the casting controversy where he said this film wouldn't have happened without him, I think it was just his words that got twisted. Like, I know it's true--he did originate the role of Evan Hansen. He went through the initial readings for it, so he knows Evan because he created the part. I think his words were twisted to make him seem like he was stroking his own ego. I mean, when you're in an argument with someone else, you know what it's like when you want to express something, but it doesn't come out right, so then they take it the wrong way? In my opinion, he truly didn't mean anything by it. I just wish he'd acknowledge, even as a joke, that his daddy may have bought him the film role, but in the end clarify that while he's too old to play Evan, the character that other actors have played was based on his own interpretation. At least, I think that's what he means. I don't know what goes on in that talented mind, but now that the situation has blown over, I think that's what he wanted to say in his "defensive" statement.

i love them both

I share a birthday with Amanda! I did not know that. Just one year later.

Very Nice.

whats the message of dear evan hansen my answer cause thats my perspective is:every scene and every song has its own message but all are very important for life

BEN PLATT MY KINGG

07:09 | I am also a _Libra._
