Director Tom Hooper is obviously in the heat of casting his upcoming musical film version of Les Miserables. We reported earlier that Amanda Seyfried was offered the role of Cosette in the film, and now it’s being reported that Taylor Swift has been offered the part of Eponine. She beat out other actresses up for the role that included Lea Michele, Scarlett Johansson, and Evan Rachel Wood. If she ends up taking the role she will join Hugh Jackman, Helena Bonham Carter, Russell Crowe, Sacha Baron Cohen, and Anne Hathaway .
