  • christian bale twenty years ago is gorgeous, i hope he's reading this

  • Comment removed

  • why is it natural insticnt for guys to put their mouths in front of the camera?

  • HI MADONNA.

    Haha, you guys are so awesome. I would have given anything to be on that set, but I was literally born the year Newsies was being made... Oops. Ha...

    I feel the need to friend/stalk you on Facebook now.

  • I see you in a ton of stuff, like Gap commercials and Rent.

  • Its so weird seeing all the boys with , earrings and facial hair looking sooo much older

  • I think I love you. That movie was amazing.

  • holy hot guys!!!

  • why was noah wearing a thong?

  • OMG! i luv how David Moscow is following Christian XD he looks upset a bit, too(David)

  • Oh man, I can't believe I've found this! Newsies has been one of my top ten movies for close to six years and I am proud to say I know every line by heart <3

  • you were a VERY cute Newsie and its a shame they cut your lines.

  • :d Hiya Swifty XD you where awesome and are

  • At first, I thought this was like a school production behind the scenes. But then I saw it was a REAL set and im like "HOLY SH-, IT'S THE ACTUAL THING!"

    How fun was it? It seemed like a lot of fun! XD

  • At what time does christian bale show...?

  • thank you so much. anyone who was a part of newsies has a lifelong fan in me. i must have been...7 in 1992 and my love and enthusiasm for the film and music have never deflated, and i am now well into my 25th year of life :). so happy to find your channel

  • MUSICAL THEATRE.

  • DAMN. there's this tall hot guy that walks in and im like "damnn who is that?" and then its CHRISTIAN BALE. he was so sexyyy<3

  • They're so much like us. And I can so tell this is the 90s. Haha.

    I am so glad you brought a camera! Neweies rocks! Now we get to see what the actors were like!

    You, being a Newsie actor, are one of my favorite celebrities. We need Disney Channel to show this movie. I mean, I can only show so many people this amazing movie using my humble Dvd!

  • You're like.....a celebrity! AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's pretty great you recorded behind the scenes. You rock~!

  • ooooomg Noah Hathaway haha

  • 1:40 Skittery!

  • Kevin, any special memories of Dom Lucero? RIP, Angel Dom.

  • @kevinstea You are an original Newsie? Pleasure!

  • @flirtygirl98 the asian one (don't think i'm racist or anything it's a descriptive term)

  • Lol!!!! Newsies=best movie EVAAAA!! I'm shocked that I hadn't heard of it before a few weeks ago when we watched it in my music class....I immediately fell in love with every one of the characters :)

  • who was the girl at 3:20?

    and i know i already commented, but i love it so much

  • omg this remind me of me lol when we do musicals and stuff at my school i'm always the one with the camera only usually ppl try to avoid getting taped which only makes it tht much fun lol xD

    My friends and i love newsies, as does our drama teacher. We're singing seize the day for our spring concert!:) thnx soo much for putting this vid up here! it looks like you all had a lot of fun making the film:)

  • For such a big cast, you guys had great chemistry. Good job :)

  • "omigod, earthquake!" i LOVE that guy. loved bumlets, too.

  • i would love to be on a set with all those boys :)

  • @flirtygirl98 im in the pink shirt ;) cut my lines though... the original version was over an hour longer!!

  • @kevinstea the original version? was that ever released or no?

  • @kevinstea an hour longer of the movie?! man, they should come out with that like, a special addition, or anniversary package or something!!

  • @LMACMA gabe really wasnt around much! and most of his scenes were shot separately from ours! who you see on the vid was the 'summer camp bunch' who stuck around through the whole shoot!

  • Ah the clothes of the 90's xD

  • @notyouraveragething just think, we'll say the same thing about to 2000s lol

  • Quick questions.

    What was it like working with an all guy cast?

    And how was working with Christian Bale? He's such a hottie:) <3

  • @chloeclover98 it was a LOT of testosterone lol. christian was really fun, we all played tons of games... sort of like summer camp

  • This is my all time favorite movie and I'll always have a crush on Christian bale, this kid with the eye patch and spot hahaha this is great, and my dream was always to meet all of you. Haha you guys rock :)

  • @2DCin3D thanks!

  • i'm not judging or anything, but i totally would never had guessed when i saw newsies at 12, that many of those dancers were gay LOL

  • surprisingly most weren't... though you wouldnt know it from our fashion! even the pink undies... not gay! 

  • This was so funny

  • Woah woah woah...is that Noah Hathaway with the ice pack on his eye??

  • it was a blast. no comment on the pink undies... he's not gay tho...farrrr from it ;)

  • You are amazing! It looks like you guys had alot of fun doing te movie! who is the guy pink panties?

  • who is the guy pink panties?

  • I love this. Thanks for posting! It looks like you guys had a lot of fun when you could xP

  • How cool!That's sounds like a lot of fun!:)

  • This is my favorite movie ever! I just found out recently how many talented dancers and choreographers got their start in this movie.

  • who's the freaky gay guy ssssssssssooooooooooo HILARIOUS!!!!:~D

  • This is wonderful-such a treat for fans thank you so much for sharing your memories with us!

    and thank you for not having it be a knockoff. thank you vera, vera much.

  • I love this!!! You guys are amazing, and this is one of my favorite movies. Way to go. :)

  • you guys made a great movie that doesn't get the credit it deserves. great job :)

  • well i suppose that's what happens when you have umpteen teenage boys and a video camera.

  • this was really amazing to watch! Thanks!

  • Camera shy actors, go freaking figure! XD

  • @Koyomi0chan you'd be surprised! im camera shy too, unless i know what im doing!

  • This video should last 5 seconds

  • Noah Hathaway? I didn't realize he was in Newsies.

  • i am a HUGE fan of newies you guys rock!!!!

  • who is the kid that "got a schnozz"?

  • this is great. being a newsie fan has saved my life. many thanks to all the actors for being the most handsome guys i have ever seen.

  • 1:11 helloooooo Christian Bale!!!

  • Do you think these boys realize just how much fanfiction was written about them? ff.net alone has nearly 7000 fics. and that's just one site.

  • @mallk10 reall? had no idea! whats the site? i'll send it along to them!

  • I saw crutchy and bumlets! And swifty is the cameraman!

  • I ain't going to go crazy like some other people but being a fan of newsies I have to say this is pretty awesome. Oh and any time I see a video with Trey in it I end up laughing. Swifty rocks!!!

  • Epic

  • Christian Bale *swoon* haha!

  • i could have sworn i commented on this vid before... but i'll do it again. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! I've loved Newsies since i was 6 (I'm 18 now) and it's still a must have for me. It never leaves my ipod! lol. I miss the disney movies like this, where it's a musical but not over run by songs. I keep having to remind myself that this was made by disney, but what they are producing now can not be compared to the greatness of Newsies! I love this movie! thank you so much for posting! Thank You!!!

  • @Jillian7707 :-) you're very welcome! cant wait to see what the broadway version is going to be like!

  • @kevinstea Newsies is in previews now at The PaperMill Theatre in NYC and opens on 9/25/11. The cast is stellar. Jeremy Jordan (Rock of Ages) as Jack, Ben Fankhauser (Spring Awakening) as Davey, Andrew Keenan-Bolger as Crutchie and an amazing cast of triple-threats. Troob is orchestrating and Alan Menkan is involved and Harvey Fierstein wrote the book for the new musical. There are some 'behind-the-scenes' here on YouTube and it looks fantastic. Check them out if you haven't already.

  • Lol, you have NO idea how many screaming want-to-be-Newsgirls love you for this! Well, including me of course ;P Too bad you didn't get Michael G. or even Gabe... OR Max Casella... But I love it anyway <3

  • @XNewsiesX Actually, he GETS Michael Goorjian !!! This must be the 1000000000 time I watch that vid and I found him ! He is running in front of the camera for like 2 seconds but he IS in it ! at 1:39 in a grey shirt !!!

  • @margotcoqote Oh goodness XD It WAS him..... Why didn't he stick around D:

  • @XNewsiesX yeah, that's too bad D= Dominic Lucero stayed here all the video, he should have done that too ! ^^

  • Backstage...........i wish i was there.

  • Baby Bale. So cute and happy.

  • Which of the newsies is Swifty?  I can't seem to find him.

  • Thanks for posting this Kevin...gave me a nostalgic laugh.  :)

  • "IT'S A GIRL! IT'S A REAL GIRL!" That's pretty awesome that you were in it!

  • are they all gay? hahah lol

  • And may I add, God bless anyone who wants to work with that many teenage boys, how annoying!!

  • Aww baby Bale. He seemed a lot more light hearted earlier in his career. Movies like Newsies, Swing Kids and such. He seems very intense and serious now.

  • @booth231 I know! He seems so happy and in such a great mood here. He's so serious now, but I guess that works for his movies nowadays!

  • @booth231 he was very light and fun... had a twinkle in his eye! the serious came after doing american psycho i think :)

  • U R SWIFTY!?!?!?!!?

    OMG!!!!! :DDDDD

  • WHERE IS AARON ROHL

  • @LuvYew219 lol you mean aaron LOHR? bahaa.. i havent seen him in this yet. i dont think he is!

  • its a girl its a real girl on the scene

  • What did Michael Goorjian teach them?? It got cut off :(

  • THAT IS AWESOME YOU WERE IN IT?!?!!?!? DAAAAH *HUGS YOU!!!* my fave char was spot when he's this age.

  • I was born when this movie came out. But, even so. I still love it. It's soo under-popular.

    I love back stage stuff. Gald I could see this. Thanks!

  • @XFatesXCall Forgot to add this. I have to say it's nice to see the camera used other than to catch blood shed. lol

  • Little Bale^^

  • omg i love newsies

  • IVAN, YOU'RE A STAR!!

    Oh, yes he is.

  • The weirdest part is Noah Hathaway being there...considering I used to crush him and ALL the guys from Newsies when I was a kid. It's surreal really, like a glitch in the matrix.

  • OMG CHRISTIIIIAAAN! How cute isn´t he!!??

  • Was that Skittery (Michael Goorjian) who was like "this is where i hang out. this is where i live. I think I live at stage 32" lol

    Cause I'm not really sure who that is...

  • And who was the hilarious guy at 1:30 being a cheerleader? lol it's my favoritest thing ever...

  • haha newsies is my all time fav movie & wait who did Dominic Lucero play? & when did he die??

  • Hey kevinstea, is that Gabriel Damon at the beginning of the clip?

  • No, that's Dominic Lucero.

    I still don't really get how some people think it's Gabe...I don't think that it looks like him at all.

  • Hey what was Noah Hathaway doing on the Newsies set? I don't remember him in the movie. Anybody know why he was there?
