DURING the live 93rd Academy Awards or the Oscars, Warner Bros. has released a new trailer for the upcoming big-screen adaptation of In The Heights, helmed by director Jon M. Chu and based on the Broadway musical by Lin-Manuel Miranda.
The trailer introduced by the actor and musician comes on the heels of the recent release of the first (and title) track for the film, which debuted last week courtesy of Atlantic Records.
Check out the new trailer below:

The musical film sensation from Crazy Rich Asians director, initially was slated for summer 2020 but was delayed by COVID-19. Warner Bros. released the film’s first trailer back in December 2019.
Set in New York’s Dominican neighborhood of Washington Heights, In the Heights follows the life of Usnavi de la Vega (Anthony Ramos), who spends his days dreaming about a better life, while he takes care of his small bodega and saves every penny for a brighter future.
In addition to Ramos, the In the Heights cast includes Corey Hawkins, Melissa Barrera, Leslie Grace, Olga Merediz, Daphne Rubin-Vega, Gregory Diaz IV, Stephanie Beatriz, Dascha Polanco and Jimmy Smits.
The film is produced by Miranda, Quiara Alegría Hudes, Scott Sanders, Anthony Bregman and Mara Jacobs, with screenplay by Hudes.
Last month, the film’s release date was actually shifted — but it turns out that’s good news for fans after all, as In the Heights will be premiering a week earlier than originally anticipated.
Chu took to social media to share the good news with fans, tweeting: “Surprise. We coming to theaters one week earlier!!! There has been so much demand since our trailer release this week that we decided to get it out to you sooner. Let’s gooooooooooooo!!!! See you soon.”
In the Heights will be available in theaters and on HBO Max on June 11. (ROHN ROMULO)
