Radar Online claims that Abdul could join the cast of In The Heights in one of the main parts.
"Paula will take over for Priscilla Lopez in one of the leading roles," a source said. "It's always been Abdul's dream to star on Broadway.
"Paula has been in talks with producers for several weeks and made a special overnight trip to New York on March 17 just to see the successful Broadway show."
Meanwhile, High School Musical director Kenny Ortega is apparently keen for Abdul to join the production.
"Seems as if Ortega wants Paula involved in this project," the insider continued. "Ortega is hot to have her choreograph the film version."
Abdul and Ortega have reportedly also been linked to a new television show about flash mobs.
