Leslie Odom Jr. Opens Up About Life After 'Hamilton'
Leslie Odom Jr. suits up for 2016 World Humanitarian Day: One Humanity Event held at the United Nations on Friday (August 19) in New York City.
The 35-year-old actor was joined by Natalie Dormer and Alisan Porter.
Leslie recently opened up about life after Hamilton.
“I don’t have to miss it because it’s around every single day,” Leslie told CBS News. “I get stopped on the street a couple times a day. I still get to have conversations about it. I sing the songs in my concerts, so it’s still around, but I did that show about 400 times, so my body needed a break and creatively, I was ready to move onto the next challenge.”
He added, “Life is great after Hamilton. The first couple days you’re trying to process, ‘Was it all a dream?’ Everything was the same and nothing was the same. Everything in my life had just shifted slightly, so it’s taking some getting used to. It’s all good, nothing bad, but before Hamilton, nobody stopped me on the train or the street so it’s taking a little getting used to the new friends that I have because of this show.”
FYI: Natalie is wearing a Max Mara suit.
