| I believe the only major cast change is Blythe Danner for Betty Buckley (Martha Jefferson). | |

| If my count is right, of the 26 original-cast members, 12 appeared in the film. One Broadway replacement, John Cullum, played the role in which he'd been a replacement. As noted by Haberville, Donald Madden, who never appeared in the show on Broadway or on tour, played John Dickinson, certainly a major role. A bit less major but still important — and also noted by Haberville — the film had Stephen Nathan, not a vet of any incarnation of the stage production, as the Courier. Patrick Hines, who played Samuel Chase in the film, played Dickinson on the bus-and-truck tour and was a replacement Dickinson on the first national. James Noble, a Broadway replacement as Hancock, was Witherspoon in the film. |

| There were a couple of other minor to major cast changes in the film of "1776" that weren't played by people who played it during its original broadway run. Donald Madden (Dickinson), Ray Middleton (Thomas McKean) and Stephen Nathan as the Courier, to name a few. | |
