In old-fashioned film musicals, it is customary to dub film actors at musical moments and lip-synch with more capable singers. Even iconic movie musicals like the original West Side Story are moving in this direction, with most of the main actors dubbing part or all. This makes us wonder about the 2021 West Side Story remake: Are these new actors actually singing, or are they dubbed like their predecessors?

A quick glance at the soundtrack of the movie will reveal that the main actors are actually singing themselves. In a sense, this is not surprising: almost every member of the main actors has a history of live musicals, including two Tony Award winners and two Tony nominees. Read on to get a quick idea of ​​which actors you can expect to hear the classic songs of this musical-and where you may have heard them sing before!
