We knew it! Lin-Manuel Miranda is set to appear in an upcoming episode of "Carpool Karaoke." Like El Chapulin Colorado once said: "Lo sospeche desde un principio!"
We sort of suspected this would happen after a photo leaked online early May. An image that was recently posted on social media hinted that the Puerto Rican actor and James Corden of "The Late Late Show with James Corden" were filming a new episode of the popular singing segment. "Lin-Manuel Miranda appears to be shooting Carpool Karaoke with James Corden today," Hypable.com posted on their Facebook page, along with a paparazzi shot of the two gentlemen in the car.
Perhaps the photo meant nothing. But considering that Corden is known for picking up celebrities and having a good ole' time while he gives them a ride around town, we could not help but to think otherwise.
As it turns out, "Hamilton's" creator is indeed part of a Broaway-themed special of "Carpool Karaoke," set to premiere in celebration of the 2016 Tony Awards, which Corden will host on June 12. The news was confirmed by Broadway.com on Thursday.
The composer and rapper is not alone in this journey as he will be joined by other renowned celebrities.
According to the official Broadway website, Miranda and Corden are joined in their car ride by six-time Tony winner Audra McDonald (Shuffle Along), Jesse Tyler Ferguson (Fully Committed), along with Tony winner and 2016 Tony nominee Jane Krakowski (She Loves Me).
The Broadway celebrities join a list of stars who have already gone behind the wheel with Corden, such as Adele, Justin Bieber, Jennifer Lopez, Sia, One Direction, Gwen Stefani, Demi Lovato and George Clooney.
