Lin-Manuel Miranda and Chuck Wendig met up for breakfast at SDCC ’19 (maybe at The Good Place diner?), as evidenced by the Broadway musical star/writer/director’s tweet early this morning:

Is a collaboration on the horizon? Let’s go with yes. Here are some things we’d love to see:
- A Dungeons & Dragons musical, following the plot of whichever campaign unfolds at the D&D panel with Sam Sykes this weekend.
- Miranda’s inevitable casting as the scientist in Wendig’s The Wanderers, once it gets optioned for movie/tv rights.
- Their own YouTube Channel where the two discuss their favorite sci-fi/fantasy books
- OR, most likely, a musical based on this tweet:
TUESDAY. The day you realize that nothing can stop you, because you are a MAGIC SKELETON packed with MEAT and animated with ELECTRICITY and IMAGINATION. You have a cave in your face full of sharp bones and five tentacles at the end of each arm. YOU CAN DO ANYTHING, MAGIC SKELETON
