Here’s some fun facts about one of my favorite stories being told in Hamilton: this is Ariana Debose, who plays a special role within the ensemble known as The Bullet. She’s killed for suspected espionage right after You’ll Be Back, and is the first one to die (not counting Hamilton’s mother or cousin who hangs himself). After this moment, she becomes an omen of death. At the beginning of Stay Alive, she carries a shot that narrowly avoids hitting Hamilton. In Yorktown, she helps Laurens kill a redcoat, shakes his hand, then Laurens is the next to die. In I Know Him, she’s the one bringing the message to King George about John Adams and symbolically heralding the impending doom of Hamilton’s political career. During Blow Us All Away, she’s the one who tells Phillip where to find George Eacker, (and flirts with him! Phillip is literally flirting with death!) then Phillip is the next to die. In Your Obedient Servent, she brings the desk on stage and hands Burr the quill to write the first of several letters that will eventually lead to Alexander Hamilton’s death. During the final duel, she again catches a bullet (fired by Burr), and if you watch her, she gets closer and closer to hitting Hamilton while he’s doing his soliloquy until Eliza pops onto stage. At this point, The Bullet is stopped by other members of the ensemble, the time freeze is abandoned, and we all know what happens‬ next. (soure: JC Payne)

• we never saw her in her gorgeous red prom dress
• we never saw her sparkle
• we never saw her repairing a car or idk have some knowledge about astrophysics or something to show that she’s not only pretty but also extremely intelligent
• we never saw her actually torture and kill Royce King (would’ve probably been too much for a PG13 film but I don’t care, we deserve to see it)
• we never saw her saving Emmett
• we never saw her fight a newborn during the battle in Eclipse
• we saw like half a second of her fighting the Volturi during the battle in Breaking Dawn Part 2
• we didn’t get enough scenes between her and Emmett
