Could you see Renee Zellweger in a Broadway musical?

Posted by:	AnyaS 08:47 pm EDT 05/06/15

Cue jokes about her altered appearance and weak singing, but when SiriusXM played Renee Zellweger's version of Roxie I remembered how much I liked her in Chicago. Yes, her singing voice lacks power, but if Sarah Jessica Parker's Once Upon a Mattress performance on the Tony Awards was representative of how she sounded every night, and having seen Christina Applegate whisper sing in Sweet Charity, the idea of Renee headlining a musical isn't so off the wall. I've not set the bar high with my examples, but those examples are for the naysayers who think she wouldn't be cast in a show that requires her to sing 6 days a week. And maybe producers wouldn't take a chance on her but if they did... any ideas for a good vehicle for her? With her film career stalled, who knows, she may well commit to a long run, especially if it gave her a career a nice boost.
