Taylor Swift, Lea Michele, Scarlett Johansson in race for Les Miserables

Taylor Swift, Lea Michele, Scarlett Johansson and Evan Rachel Wood are reportedly in race to bag a key role in upcoming movie Les Miserables. The makers of the movie are yet to finalise one among them and they are in talks with the actresses.

If reports are to be believed, the movie bosses are facing happy headache. It is because Taylor Swift, Lea Michele, Scarlett Johansson and Evan Rachel Wood have unique quality and picking one out of four has become a tough job.

However, the makers of Les Miserables have already signed Anne Hathaway, who will be seen in the female lead role, Hugh Jackman to enact the lead character Jean Valjean and Russell Crowe to play a cop named Javert. Eddie Redmayne and Geoffrey Rush are in the other cast.

Written by William Nicholson, Les Miserables will hit the screens on December 7, 2012.
