Lin-Manuel Miranda is bringing his musical talent to the big screen for the Disney sequel to “Mary Poppins.”
\nWalt Disney Studios announced Tuesday that the “Hamilton” creator and star would join “Into the Woods” star Emily Blunt in the sequel about the P.L. Travers-created English nanny. It will be called “Mary Poppins Returns.”

The movie musicals of the 1950s were incredible, but \u2018In The Heights\u2019 will revolutionize what movie audiences expect from the genre.”
\nThe film adaptation was initially in development…
