Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo will play Glinda the Good Witch and Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West, alongside Jonathan Bailey as Fiyero and Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible, in Jon M Chu’s two-part adaptation of the Broadway musical ‘Wicked’.
Wicked, the wildly successful Broadway musical that made global stars of its leads Kristin Chenoweth and Idina Menzel, is finally heading to the big screen. Set to play Glinda the Good Witch and Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West? None other than Grammy-winning superstar Ariana Grande , and Emmy, Grammy and Tony Award recipient Cynthia Erivo. And accompanying them as their dashing love interest Fiyero? Bridgerton’s Jonathan Bailey, of course.
It’s been a long time coming for fans who’ve been hoping for a cinematic version of the witches’ exploits in the land of Oz – the project first entered development in 2004, not long after the show’s debut – but they’ll be amply rewarded. In April 2022, Chu added that the musical would be split into two films, with the first arriving in cinemas on 27 November 2024, and the second on 26 November 2025.
