Lin-Manuel Miranda announces 'Hamilton' theatrical release for 10th anniversary
Lin-Manuel Miranda announced the release date of the movie version of his Tony Award-winning Broadway musical theatre play 'Hamilton'. The movie is set to hit theatres on September 5.
On a recent episode of 'The Tonight Show', Miranda revealed the theatrical release date of 'Hamilton' after a delay due to the pandemic. To mark the 10-year anniversary of the play this year, the makers have decided to release 'Hamilton' in theatres.
"I have an announcement! So, tomorrow is the 10-year anniversary of 'Hamilton', and we've been celebrating all year. But we have one more way to celebrate. We filmed most of the original cast performing in 'Hamilton' in 2016, and we always wanted to release it theatrically, but then the pandemic hit, and so we decided to release it on streaming so that everyone could see it at home whenever they wanted.
But, on Sept. 5, you will be able to see 'Hamilton' in movie theatres nationwide and in Puerto Rico," said Miranda, as quoted by Variety.
According to the outlet, 'Hamilton' premiered on Disney+ in July 2020, roughly a year before it was originally scheduled to debut in theatres. The movie version is a 'live capture' of the production, filmed at The Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway in June of 2016 with most of the hit Broadway musical's original cast.

As Raksha Bandhan winds down, placing flowers near your picture, I tried to stay composed while Mum cried.' Check out the post here: 'Protecting what you would have wanted' She added, 'The thread that binds us, invisible yet strong, remains unbroken, as eternal as our memories. I relive the moments spent with you, and now, I find myself protecting what you would have wanted, and what Dad dreamed, though it was always meant to be the other way around. If you were still here, everything would be different, everything would be better, my dear Bhaiya.' 'Today, I tied a thread to the corner of your picture, gazing at your face—handsome, smiling, the brother who shared our dreams. You carried Dad's legacy with strength; I know you would've kept building upon it. Protecting your memory is my sacred duty. We are brave, and I know you'll continue to protect us.

Divya Dutta reacts to Shah Rukh Khan's National Award win; says her 2017 honour proved a double-edged sword: ‘There were instances where I…'
Although Shah Rukh Khan finally winning the National Film Award for Best Actor for the first time in his 33-year movie career brought much joy to many — particularly his near and dear ones, as well as his ardent fans — the news also left many disappointed. Among the controversies sparked by the announcement of the National Film Awards 2025 winners, one arose from Shah Rukh Khan winning the top honour for an out-and-out star vehicle like director Atlee Kumar's Jawan (2023). While many claimed that the win was undeserving, with some fans even pointing out that awarding him for Jawan was disrespectful since his far better performances in movies like Swades (2004) went unnoticed, those in support have largely dismissed such comments. They are currently celebrating what they believe is Bollywood's Baadshah finally getting due credit. A National Award-winner herself, Divya bagged the honour for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in director Aparnaa Singh's Irada (2017). When asked if winning the award had a lasting impact on her career and artistic process, or if it's simply a fond memory now, she was quick to state that it was much more than that. 'It's not just a fond memory. Firstly, it's such a huge honour. Secondly, of course, the public perception of you changes, and even among industry insiders, it does,' she pointed out. Divya further explained that filmmakers began to consider her status as a National Award-winning actor when approaching her for roles, which prevented her from being relegated to meaningless parts. 'They take you a tad bit more seriously (after such wins). I'm not saying that they weren't taking me seriously, but it's definitely a feather in the cap that you'll always be proud of.' When further discussing the implications of being a 'National Award-winning actor', Divya acknowledged that it can sometimes be a double-edged sword. 'There have been instances where I encountered talented new directors who wanted to approach me for roles, but ultimately decided against it (because I'm a National Award-winning actor). I was like, 'You didn't have to think, you just had to come.' If something is very simple and easy, we don't digest it actually. We feel only complicated and challenging things are real,' she added. Renowned for her performances in movies like Shaheed-e-Mohabbat Boota Singh, Welcome to Sajjanpur, Delhi-6, Heroine, Bhaag Milkha Bhaag and Badlapur, Divya Dutta recently made her Telugu debut in a key role in Mayasabha, the political drama streaming series created by Deva Katta.

Bigg Boss Malayalam 7: Mohanlal exposes ‘Ayalkoottam' gang, warns Appani Sarath over language
Mohanlal, the host of Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7, addressed contestants Akbar Khan and Appani Sarath, cautioning them against forming manipulative alliances, which he mockingly termed "Ayalkoottam." He also criticized Sarath's aggressive behavior and foul language, emphasizing the importance of respectful conduct on the show, watched by a multigenerational audience. The host highlighted their strategy of provoking other contestants. Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7 is off to a fiery start, with host Mohanlal taking a no-nonsense approach right from week one. In the latest weekend episode, the superstar didn't hold back as he called out contestants Akbar Khan and Appani Sarath for forming what he referred to as an 'Ayalkoottam' gang, a sarcastic dig at alliance-based gameplay inside the house. While addressing the contestants, Mohanlal mentioned the growing bond between Sarath and Akbar, jokingly referring to them as the Ayalkoottam. The term, though light-hearted on the surface, carried a serious undertone, warning the duo against manipulative and group-based strategies. 'They seem to be planning too much. Others, be careful,' he said with a smile, but the message was loud and clear. When questioned, Akbar defended the bond, saying, 'We're just comfortable with each other. We're friends, but we'll compete against each other when needed.' Sarath, however, remained silent during the segment. Mohanlal also turned his attention to Appani Sarath's aggressive behavior and language. The host noted that while it's natural to get angry in a high-pressure environment like Bigg Boss, contestants must be mindful of how they express themselves. 'This show is watched by three to four generations of viewers. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo There's no room for foul language or disrespectful behavior. Give respect and take respect,' Mohanlal firmly advised Sarath. For context, Sarath has been seen losing his temper multiple times during the week, particularly during confrontations with fellow contestant Aneesh. His tone and choice of words raised concerns among viewers and housemates alike. Additionally, Akbar and Sarath were observed discussing strategies to 'activate' certain contestants by provoking them, a move that did not sit well with Bigg Boss or the host.
