A new behind-the-scenes look at Rogers: The Musical has been revealed by Disney as the limited production prepares to kick off its run from June 30-August 31 at Disney California Adventure Park. Check it out.
Rogers: The Musical started out as a fictional musical first referenced in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). It was introduced in the Jeremy Renner-led Disney+ series Hawkeye (2021), specifically in the fourth episode titled "Partners, Am I Right?".
In Hawkeye, Rogers: The Musical is depicted as a popular Broadway production that pays homage to the heroic acts of Steve Rogers aka Captain America. The musical reenacts and celebrates key moments from Captain America's life, such as his transformation into a super-soldier, his battles against Hydra's Red Skull, and his ultimate sacrifice in Avengers: Endgame.
While the full musical is not depicted in the series, several scenes and musical numbers from "Rogers: The Musical" are shown, featuring actors portraying Steve Rogers/Captain America, Iron Man, Hulk, and others. It will be interesting to see how the depiction in Hawkeye compares to the limited run kicking off in Disney in just a few days.
The limited run of Rogers: The Musical is part of the Disney100 Celebration which honors the centennial anniversary of the date brothers Walt and Roy Disney founded the company in 1923
