Anne Hathaway Les Mis- Confirming rumors circulating last August, Anne Hathaway will be singing "I Dreamed a Dream" as Fantine in the film version of Victor Hugo's Les Misérables.
The adaptation of the musical stage play stars Hugh Jackman as Jean Valjean and Russell Crowe as the antogonist Inspector Javert, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Set in 19th-century France, during years prior to the French Revolution, the story follows a paroled prisoner who seeks redemption and a struggling factory worker.
