"We hacked the system!" Lin-Manuel Miranda on bringing Hamilton from stage to screen.

Lin-Manuel Miranda and Director Thomas Kail talk to BBC Radio 1's film critic Ali Plumb about the movie release of Hamilton on Disney+. They discuss whether Founding Father Alexander Hamilton was really a hip hop artist, what their favourite rhymes are, and whether the Schuyler sisters now count as Disney Princesses. Plus they discuss the challenges of bringing the phenomenally successful stage musical to our screens.
