Lin-Manuel Miranda is currently doing press for his upcoming feature film Mary Poppins Returns. On Wednesday, he visited Live With Kelly and Ryan.

Host Kelly Ripa brought up his first-ever TV acting role, which was a day player role on The Sopranos. “It’s funny, because it’ll pop up on re-runs and people are like, ‘Wow, you made a cameo on The Sopranos!’ No no—when you are a substitute teacher and this is your first job, it’s just a job. It’s only when you’re famous that it’s retroactively a cameo.
