LOS ANGELES — Lin-Manuel Miranda is looking forward to the day when a movie starring a U.S. Latino cast, featuring characters who aren’t stereotyped as maids or gardeners, is a regular fixture in cinemas.

“To be quaint would be a dream come true. No one movie can encompass the sheer tonnage of stories we have to offer,” said Miranda, who is of Puerto Rican descent and is the creator of hit musical “Hamilton.” Miranda originally wrote “In the Heights” about the vibrant multi-racial community in Manhattan’s Washington Heights neighborhood as a stage musical, before “Hamilton,” which reframes the story of America’s founding fathers through the perspective of Blacks and Latino immigrants.

“This last Oscars – I couldn’t even watch it,” said Olmos. “I was destroyed by the fact that if it wasn’t for Rita Moreno, we would have had no representation whatsoever.”
