Lego’s First Ever Live-Action ‘Heartlake City’ Musical Film Unveils Cast Including Jada Langley, Gino Ochello

Lego has unveiled the cast of its first ever musical feature film.

“Lego Friends: Heartlake the Musical,” based on the toy brand’s Lego Friends line, will star a host of British theater pros including Jada Langley and Gino Ochello.

The 90-minute feature, which has the potential to become Lego’s own “High School Musical,” follows Daisy (Langley), a young girl who turns to toy bricks as she finds herself trying to fit into a new school in a new country. When she stumbles across a mysterious key, she is transported to Heartlake City where she makes new friends. But they soon require her help to save a vital local landmark – with plenty of song and dance numbers along the way.
