If you’re a fan of movie musicals, you may want to know how to watch In the Heights online for free to not miss the first blockbuster of the summer.
In the Heights, which premieres in theaters and on HBO Max on June 11, is based on the 2008 Broadway musical of the same name. The musical, whose music and lyrics were written by Hamilton‘s Lin-Manuel Miranda, is set over the course of three days and tells the story of a bodega owner in the largely Dominican neighborhood of Washington Heights in New York City who saves money in hopes of a better life. The show was nominated for 13 Tony Awards in 2009 and won four, including Best Musical.
The movie adaptation of In the Heights, which was directed by Crazy Rich Asians‘ Jon M. Chu, was originally scheduled for release on June 26, 2020, but was postponed to June 11, 2021, due to the current health crisis. The movie stars several Broadway veterans including Anthony Ramos and Corey Hawkins, as well as stars like Leslie Grace, Melissa Barrera, Stephanie Beatriz, Dascha Polanco and Marc Anthony.
In an interview with Variety in June, Miranda, who grew up in Inwood, a neighborhood near Washington Heights, recalled the feedback he received when he first pitched the idea for In the Heights more than 20 years ago. “I would get pitches from producers who only had ‘West Side Story’ in their cultural memory,” Miranda recalls. “Like, ‘Why isn’t she pregnant? Why isn’t she in a gang? Why isn’t she coming out of an abusive relationship at Stanford?’ Those are all actual things I was pitched.” he said. “Because the pressure of leaving your neighborhood to go to school is fucking enough. I promise. And if it’s not dramatic enough, that’s on us to show you the fucking stakes.”
With Oscars buzz and predictions that the ilm could be one of 2021’s biggest movies yet, it’s understandable why so many fans want to know if there’s a way to watch In the Heights online for free if you’re not ready to return to theaters. Ahead are some little-known ways to watch In the Heights online for free.
