Get a First Look at Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo in 'Wicked' Film
Director Jon M. Chu has shared the first look of the upcoming two-part "Wicked" movies on Instagram, featuring Ariana Grande as Glinda and Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba. The films are an adaptation of the hit Broadway musical and will tell the story leading up to Dorothy's arrival in Oz. The first movie is set to release on Nov. 27, 2024, with the second installment following on Dec. 25, 2025. Chu split the story into two movies to give a "bigger canvas" to tell the story as it was meant to be told.
