A live television production, ''RENT: Live'', aired on Creator/{{Fox}} in January 2019, eleven years since the initial Broadway run ended. Among the cast of this production were Creator/JordanFisher as Mark, Music/{{Tinashe}} as Mimi, Creator/{{Valentina}} as Angel, Music/VanessaHudgens as Maureen, Creator/KierseyClemons as Joanne, and [[Film/TheGreatestShowman Keala Settle]] as the "Seasons of Love" soloist, while some of the original Broadway cast made [[RemakeCameo cameo appearances]] in the final number. Co-star Brennin Hunt (Roger) broke his ankle during the prior night's dress rehearsal, and there was no understudy prepared to take over from him. Since {{the show must go on}}, however, he was still able to perform in modified segments using a wheelchair on the actual night, but the television broadcast consisted mainly of footage from the dress rehearsal until the aforementioned grand finale.

* AdaptationalHeroism: Benny's portrayal is mostly more positive in the movie. In general he comes off as a lot less slimy and he doesn't constantly rub his previous relationship with Mimi in Roger's face. On the flipside, he [[spoiler:isn't shown paying for Angel's funeral or Mimi's rehab]], but those scenes were shot for the movie, just left out of the final cut.

* {{Bowdlerise}}: The 2019 live telecast removes several swear words from the script, most notably the f-bombs in "Tango Maureen". Benny's "Do you really want a neighborhood where people piss on your stoop every night?" had "piss" changed to "puke," Angel's "Times are shitty" got changed to "Times ain't pretty," and the homeless woman calls out Mark with a scoff and "Artists" instead of calling out "This town is full of motherfucking artists!"

It also cut down heavily on the presence of the drug dealer and his buyers in "Christmas Bells", despite the fact that the lines asking for different drugs remains at the climax of the number when all the parts are overlapping.

* CerebusSyndrome: Though the first act has dark moments involving some of the protagobists' struggles with HIV and about the plight of New York's homeless, there is almost always a layer of humor, however cynical over it. And even when the cast quarrel, they tebd to make up fast. Act 2 focuses more on the characters' dysfunctions and how they clash with each other, with reconciliation coming less and less easily. And after [[spoiler:Angel's death]], humor basically disappears for the rest of the show.

* DepravedBisexual: Maureen has shades of this, what with her AnythingThatMoves personality and her constant {{gaslighting}} and emotional abuse towards Joanne.

** Jonathan Larson referred to her as a lesbian in the original script, but he was later corrected by lesbian friends who noted that she wouldn't have dated Mark if she was a lesbian. Most of the characters still refer to her as a lesbian, but that can be chalked up to bisexual identity not being as commonly promoted at the time. Historically, 'lesbian' was often used to refer to women who had relationships with women regardless of whether they also had relations with men.
