"Les Miserables" musical’s trailer features Anne Hathaway as Fantine (video)  May 31, 2012 - 19:15 AMTPanARMENIAN.Net - The first official trailer of "Les Miserables" has been released. Fans get the chance to hear Anne Hathaway's tearful rendition of "I Dreamed a Dream" and a glimpse of her character Fantine getting her locks chopped up real short, AceShowbiz reported. The big screen version of the famous musical is directed by "The King's Speech" helmer Tom Hooper, starring also Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe and Amanda Seyfried as Jean Valjean, Inspector Javert and Cosette respectively. When it first leaked, the trailer drew controversy for Hathaway's shaky vocal in the song. The negative reactions were trampled with the report that Hooper insisted on his actors to sing live on set instead of lip-syncing to a pre-recorded track. The official trailer shows that Universal Pictures decided to go on with the raw version. Based on the Victor Hugo novel, "Les Miserables" opened on Broadway in 1987 and closed in 2003 after more than 6,600 performances. The film will hit U.S. theaters on December 14.
