Very interesting if it's true.

It will be interesting to see what comes out of this. The contract between universal and disney is quite extensive so we will have to see if this can and will happen.

It'd be interesting to see the posting. I just looked online and all I found was a posting for today for Thor to be held at HS for an engagement on DCL. They ask that he be able to dance...? LoL!

Yeah, I think its more up to the lawyers than anything else.

It's entirely possible that you saw the same listing. Which kills this idea.

Yup, looks like they have updated the article. This is for DCL. No shocker there though...

Yeah, the posting is/was on backstage.com (or is it .org?). If you want, I can pull it up, but it clearly said it was an open call being held at HS for DCL workers. And he had to be able to dance and have a knowledge of music and vocal arrangements. I'm not sure if that's just the standard casting call for DCL, or if they cross-train performers to other productions (does DCL even have stage shows? Literally, no idea), but I thought it was odd.
