John Cudia is awesome too, but no one can top Colm.

Colm Wilkinson is my absolute favorite. (:

The only guy who's made me like the prologue.

Colm Wilkinson is my absolute favourite but I adore Jonathan Williams in the role as well.

This man is legendary.

Colm Wilkinson is by far the best Jean Valjea, EVER. No one else even comes close.

Colm Wilkinson is by far the best!!!!! I was surprised that he didn't play Valjean in the 25th anniversary concert but Alfie Boe did play the role nicely anyway!!!!!

Loved Liam Neeson as Jean! Evan if he didn't sing it.. he still did an amazing job!

Please, can you see this video of Geronimo playing the miserables in spanish? Is brutal!!!

i love him so much!

I know it's a very boring response, but I thought Hugh played his part well.

& Colm Wilkinson!

In showing how devoted Rob Guest was to the role of Valjean he had a stroke in 2008 and nearly died on stage during rehearsals

Come on Hugh Jackson!

Personally i liked Alfie Bowe the best also Colm Wilkinson and Hugh Jackman

^same here. i think Colm Wilkinson is better in the original London production than in the 10th Anniversary concert. Alfie is amazing. Hugh Jackman played the part really well, but I think his version of Bring Him Home was..not the best. But he was good

Seriously guys his Bring Him Home...

Colm Wilkinson is the best valjean hands down!!!!

Colm Wilkinson is also amazing, and so is Ramin Karinloo.

I don't know why, but I just cannot get into Wilkinson's portrayal, he was monotone and held very little impact in tone (a good example is look down and confrontation where he has very little inflection in the 10th anniversary), but with Boe, his voice was powerful, and you could hear the emotion in it. He just sounded far better.
