That's a pretty cool idea. I think the feeling the audience brings about this cast and their history together in a movie musical might be something akin to the feeling original audiences had about the original cast and their connection to hold hollywood/theatre. Even though there are others I'd rather see in some of these roles, they are big names who could get it made, and mostly do it justice. I am not sure I am longing for the Renee Zellweger version of In Buddy's Eyes---can she even sing in that range?---but I'd accept some compromises to have it at all.

Other examples of this sort of thing (not in musicals): reuniting Tom Hanks and Robin Wright, Richard Gere and Julia Roberts, Leo and Kate, Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin.
