Kelvin Harrison Jr
will play Christian, Cyrano's love rival played by Peter
Dinklage in the musical directed by Joe Wright and produced by Metro Goldwin
Meyers.
Christian in the novel written by Rostand, is a young and handsome soldier
Roxanne is in love with.
Although handsome, honest, loyal and courageous, he certainly does not have
the poetic vein of Cyrano. That vein that the beautiful Roxanne will fall in
love with even more.
Christian and Cyrano will leave at the front with their respective cadet
companies and from the front Cyrano will send a letter to his beloved
Roxanne who will split the being of Christian.
The beautiful girl will challenge the war and with her carriage will reach
the place of conflict to reach her beloved Christian, overwhelmed by the
passion released by these letters.
Christian will understand that he is Roxanne's and will push the ugly Cyrano
to come forward with the woman.
During a dangerous reconnaissance mission, Christian is seriously injured
and before dying he will ask his friend Cyrano if Roxanne learned the truth
and who she chose between the two. But Cyrano will lie to his friend saying
that the beautiful Roxanne has chosen him: the beautiful Christian.
