How cool would it be to tell people “I’m the Bullet in Hamilton”.

[KazumiKiguma]

This is probably also why they gave her a very distinctive hairstyle, so she's always recognizable.

[DylanTheDuck]

Okay can we talk about how badass the nickname “the bullet” is?

[msromo]

I noticed her in the film, but didn't really understand her to be a character. I had not really made a note at all in the stage production (which I saw twice - Chicago cast), I think I noticed her specifically in the film because she had such a cool look about her that she caught my eye in most of the numbers she was a part of. Thanks for the info. Now I'll go back and watch again!

My favorite weird detail is when Ham tells Lafayette "ill see you on the other side" in Yorktown. The next time we see Lafayette he is playing Jefferson, literally on the opposing side.

[suba]

Never really noticed when Hamilton says to leave a note for your next of kin, he looks at Laurens and nods, which is probably a subtle nod to Anthony Ramos playing Phillip in Act II.

Another foreshadow of John Laurens’s death, not related to the Bullet, is in Aaron Burr’s introductory song. Burr sings, “fools who run their mouths off wind up dead...” immediately followed by John rapping a line, and Burr remarking “Like I said...”

[caitlinistired]

Usually I'd be like "nah its a coincidence"... but this is Lin we're talking about

[tumbledrylow__]

She also plays Sally Hemmings, a slave of Thomas Jeffersons and Sally side of history is what destroyed Jefferson's reputation.

The choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler himself has said the bullet character is actually trying to slow down the bullet throughout the show. In the final duel she’s losing control of the bullet so she needs help from more ensemble cast members to help slow it down. Source: The Hamilcast podcast episode 217

Is it just me or is the addition of “the bullet” so genius? Lin was so clever to add this underlying character and ambiance all throughout the musical💗💗💗

[Gardenlodge]

This is exactly why I have been telling people that you CANNOT digest all of Hamilton in one sitting. It's also nice that Hamilton features a relatively small cast with the same actors portraying multiple characters. I have watched it too many times to remember since it premiered on Disney+ and each time, I watch for different things like the main characters, ensemble, dancers, movement of the floor and props and even the lighting. From my many viewings, I caught almost all of these things mentioned in this video. Every time I watch, I discover something new and I am still completely blown away by how phenomenal Hamilton is and the brilliance of Lin-Manuel Miranda, the entire cast, crew, orchestra and everyone involved!!

[deniseflygirl]

I noticed her as a prominent ensemble dancer doing most of those things, including guiding the bullet. Also Sally Hemings.

[mklcolvin]

Thought that I was the only one who noticed "The Bullet"! I never even noticed a lot of those - gotta watch it again!

[kinedj]

That’s crazy. There’s literally a character that represented death. This musical is so thought through. There’s so much to take in. I wonder how many eagles noticed this while actually watching. I recognized her but I thought she was just another background dancer; I never wouldve connected these dots by myself.

[disc_golfing_with_d]

Also if you look closely, the Bullet plays “Sally”, Jefferson’s slave who he has children with. She hands Jefferson the letter about Jefferson’s appointment into Washington’s Cabinet. I feel that this signifies the start of Hamilton’s problems as the Bullet hands the appointment to the man who will be instrumental in his down fall.
And if you don’t know, now you know. 😎

I love how she says Alexander she says it like : Alex-ahn-der

[noomi]

She’s the prettiest and most eye-catching on set w/ her cool hair and all, very hard to miss imo

[czarinagarcia]

The Bullet is stunning. She was great in Hamilton she definitely caught my attention and was one of the main dancers that shined
