Gary Sinise should have played Alexander Hamilton
I must say that I always thought there was something off about Rufus Sewell's portrayal of Hamilton on this show. He was just miscast. Having read the book on which this fabulous miniseries was based as well as having read Ron Chernow's biography of Hamilton, I honestly think that Gary Sinise would have been a much better fit for Hamilton. He would have brought much more depth and breadth to the role and Sinise is just so good at playing introverted, cerebral characters who are also impetuous and combative. Sewell was just too one-note.
