As much as I love Taylor Swift, I am soooo happy she didn't get cast as Eponine! First of all, she would have been far too well-known for such a role. Secondly, I may get hate for this, but I don't think she's all that great of an actress. I'm definitely not saying I'm any better, but compared to Samantha Barks, she's average. Also, I love Taylor's voice, but it's average and wouldn't be ideal for a musical/film such as Les Miserables.

I totally agree. She isn't even that great of a singer so she just needs to stick to pop because I reckon if she was in a musical as dramatic as this one, she would have completely ruined it. She doesn't have the powerful and moving voice that eponine needs

I am literally addicted to Samantha Barks' voice. Not even the SINGING voice. Just her talking voice. Unggh.

Yep. I’ve got a little crush 🤪

If taylor swift would've gotten cast as eponine, I would've thought it was a movie to make fun of les mis. That would've been a complete joke. Sam was perfect!!

Samantha barks is like the loveliest person ever

Im glad Taylor Swift wasn't cast as Eponine. Thank God. Samantha was perfect.

The way that Samantha looks at Eddie is very sweet. She has a light in her eyes and I can tell she thinks of him and a really great person

Eponine's heartbreak leaves me in a pool of tears every time I watch LES MIS, so it makes me feel tons better to see these two enjoying themselves and having a jolly good time.

I literally love how they're having so much fun and the interviewer looks like he's having a terrible time! haha

taylor swift in les mis the movie would probably be like nick Jonas was in the 25th anniversary not bad per say but really out of place

"So how long could you rap everything you said to one another?" "Well, there's not a lot of rapping in Les Mis..." (dead pan face) "Yeah so... how long do you think you could do it though?"

Samantha’s response to the question about beating Taylor Swift was so awesome and mature. What a queen. Also would LOVE to see Taylor’s audition tape 😂

Her dimples >>>

apply rapping to Les Mis and you get the French version of Hamilton starring Enjolras as Alexander Hamilton

I met Samantha after I saw her in Oliver a couple of weeks ago, she is literally one of the nicest people (and so beautiful in real life). I'm sure I'd be pissed off if someone was pestering me after I'd been on stage for three hours but she was so down to earth and she gave me singing advice! She so deserves all her success :)

I glad Taylor didn't get to be Eponnie, not that I don't LOVE her. Sam is PERFECT!

According to this, she was actually offered the role: www.mtv.com/news/1676763/taylor-swift-les-miserables-reactions/ That's a little weird, though, because in a later article by them, they said that Samantha Barks won the role over her, so I don't really understand what exactly is going on. According to this source, Eddie Redmayne said that Taylor's audition was great, but I'm sure he wouldn't say that it was anything less than great: time.com/4574972/eddie-redmayne-taylor-swift/

They could have everyone in the world audition and not find a better eponine Sam is UNBELIEVABLE

I literally fell in love with Marius when I saw Les Mis. I dont think i ever thought that I would love the freckles on someone's face as much as I did; they give so much character to Eddie (not saying he doesn't already have character....). I would cry if I could meet him..

Samantha Barks is GORGEOUS. Just throwing that out there

Eponine is my favourite character in the film and I was extremely happy with Sam. She's really great.

Eddie Redmayne is beautiful.

gosh, theyre both just so perfect.

Sam is perfect I wouldn't want anyone else playing the role other than her :)

'Chastised by other actors....' and now he's an Oscar winner

im happy for samantha i swear if eponine was played by taylor swift les mis wouldnt be dramatic and it would just feel like some disney movie....

Samantha you make me smile. :-)

I always thought her waist looked really small! That explains it!

they would be so perfect together! they get along so well! and its not awkward between them!

These two are brilliant together. Best interview I've seen in the last year.

That was quite honestly the most amusing thing I've ever seen. Sam cracks me up.

I cannot be the only person who ships them. And no, it's nothing to do with their characters in the movie. He keeps leaning over closer to her, and the way she looks at him...Okay they would be perfect and no one can convince me otherwise.

Sam's whole 'Wake Awake' bit was brilliant. I love her beyond belief, she's too perfect.

I LOVE HER SO MUCH. I can't express in words.

These are two are so adorable and so talented!!!

'It's not like this, she has got words to it.' Brilliant.

Awww!! they're both just so cute!!!

taylor swift for eponine? good lord..

i love them soo muchhh!!

Both are my new celeb crushes... adore them together!

I love them so so much!

I think Eddie is soooooo awesome

I just saw the movie both actors were great, they sung so good they made me cry...

now she's got it stuck in MY head!

I feel like Taylor Swift wanted to audition just so that she gets to sing another heart break song (on my own) XD

I wish they were together!!

Aww! They're so sweet! Wish i could meet them!

I just wanna be best friends with them and sing songs all day

since he wasn’t married in 2012 I’m allowed to say that he definitely has a lil crush on her and I ship it HARDD

EDDIE LIKES KARAOKING TO MEATLOAF I'M DEAD

they laugh so adorablely..

this video is my favourite video in the universe-

The best actors/singers in the movie by far!

both of them are just beautiful human beings :)

That sounds like the most awesome combination.

Sam is so awesome! I love her dimples! She sacrificed a lot for this film, I'm so glad Taylor Swift didn't get this part.

ahaha my two favourite character and actors! yay!

Smiled like the whole way through

They are so cute!! Love them together!! Seriously!!!

This is the second film in which Eddie Redmayne's character has fallen for a blonde woman over a better looking brunette. Michelle Williams oiver Emma Watson, now Amanda Seyfried over Samantha Barks!
