Is this a new movie or the popular stage show?
This is the stage show and not a new movie. It was filmed back in 2016 at the Richard Rodgers Theatre. Originally, the goal was to make a documentary, but things turned out to be quite different with a theatrical release for October 2021. At this point, and just in time for Independence Day, Disney+ decided to make it available for streaming on July 3rd. The show is directed by Thomas Kail who has directed, until today, all of Hamilton’s Broadway shows. The musical was filmed as it was performed every night with multiple cameras to catch the whole show.
