The official “tick, tick…Boom” synopsis from Netflix reads: “ Andrew Garfield plays Jon, a young theater composer who’s waiting tables at a New York City diner in 1990 while writing what he hopes will be the next great American musical. “Rent” opened on Broadway in the meantime, making the late Larson a musical theater phenomenon. Larson performed the musical as a solo work in 1990, before playwright David Auburn revamped it into a 2001 Off-Broadway musical following Larson’s tragic death. Netflix has debuted the first trailer for Miranda’s feature directorial debut “ tick, tick…Boom,” adapted from “Rent” creator Jonathan Larson’s autobiographical musical of the same name. So what’s next for Miranda? A seat in the director’s chair. Lin-Manuel Miranda has conquered Broadway with “In the Heights” and “Hamilton,” and he’s already proven his bonafides in film as an actor (“Mary Poppins Returns”), composer (“Moana”), and producer (“In the Heights”).
