Wow amazing news for her! Filming starts next summer… in the U.K. *.*

Posted by: Jade 5th November 2021, 09:06 PM

better familiarise myself with the Wicked soundtrack - I think I only know 'Popular', 'Defying Gravity' and 'For Good'

Posted by: Tafty³³³ 5th November 2021, 10:04 PM

Is Jon M. Chu directing??? If so... *.* (he also did 'Crazy Rich Asians' & 'In The Heights' - two of my favourite movies of the last 5 years)

Hyped for this! I've never seen it before but it's right up there on my West End bucket list!

Posted by: Jade 5th November 2021, 10:36 PM

He is indeed!

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 6th November 2021, 12:42 AM

Omg, is she going to perform 'Popular Song'?

Posted by: DangerousJulian 6th November 2021, 01:57 PM

OMFG HYPED!!

Posted by: Cameron 6th November 2021, 09:05 PM

Popular Song made this happen.

Posted by: Jade 7th November 2021, 03:07 PM

Yeah this is such a cool full circle moment for her with that tweet 10 years ago saying this was her dream role, her career start in broadway and the 'Popular' interpolation on her debut album.

Love this for her

Posted by: Jade 7th November 2021, 07:18 PM

Cute!

Posted by: Jade 22nd November 2021, 09:20 PM

🥰 their friendship is so sweet

Posted by: Jade 20th December 2021, 06:19 PM

I am not ready for 'Defying Gravity'

Posted by: Jade 1st January 2022, 03:17 PM

Excited to see them together after getting to know Cynthia as a guest judge on Strictly

Posted by: London 4th January 2022, 12:10 AM

I love Wiked so much! I went to see it again in November. I can’t wait to see her in the film

Posted by: Jade 28th January 2022, 09:47 AM

Aww love this! Truthfully most of my Wicked knowledge comes from Glee, as with a lot of musicals but excited nevertheless!

Looks like she's getting stuck in with all things Wicked:

Posted by: Jade 4th February 2022, 12:10 PM

🥺❤️

Posted by: London 16th February 2022, 09:11 PM

Just read this - so glad it was a fair process and rightly so: it is one of the best musicals to be launched in the last 20 years and deserves the right person to play each part. CAN NOT WAIT!

Posted by: Lukuzz 16th February 2022, 09:51 PM

Can’t wait, one of my favourite musicals ever

Posted by: Jade 20th February 2022, 02:55 PM

Great to see the excitement in here

Posted by: London 20th February 2022, 10:29 PM

Just listened to ‘Popular Song’ on her debut album - so cool she’s playing Glinda the good !!

Posted by: Jade 20th February 2022, 10:44 PM

I know right it's such a full circle moment since then *.*

Posted by: Jade 21st February 2022, 06:03 PM

Love how much of a fan-girl she is!

Also here for the return of the ponytail *.*

Posted by: Jade 28th February 2022, 06:54 PM

Bring it on *.*

Posted by: London 7th June 2022, 10:08 PM

Posted by: Jade 11th January 2023, 08:27 PM

so excited to see them all together in action!

Posted by: Jade 17th January 2023, 11:39 PM

it must be such a pinch me moment for Ari to not only be involved with this project but also to have one of her idols singing her praises too

Posted by: Jade 2nd February 2023, 09:06 PM

*continues to wait patiently*

Posted by: Jade 5th February 2023, 11:59 AM

aww

Posted by: Jade 21st February 2023, 06:06 PM

Interesting ;o maybe give or take a bit as I think filming actually began in December based on what we publicly know so far.

Posted by: Jade 14th March 2023, 03:30 PM

The first of the two movies is now being released slightly earlier - 27th November 2024!

(also, congrats to Michelle Yeoh who is also starring in these films for her well deserved Oscar win )

Posted by: Jade 16th March 2023, 08:08 PM

Cynthia Erivo singing Ariana's praises:

Hopefully Ari will do some promo of her own for the movie soon!

Posted by: Jade 18th March 2023, 11:17 AM

Looks like filming has hit the half-way point:

Went to see Wicked in the theatre last night... Again....

So excited for this film. Ariana is gonna be out of this world.

Posted by: Jade 3rd April 2023, 05:32 PM

Hope you had the best time!!

Filming is at the half way point according to this very passionate update from Ari:

Posted by: One_For_Sorrow 4th April 2023, 09:39 AM

Never seen the stage show, but I really want to.

I think it’s coming back to Australia next year.

Posted by: Jade 5th April 2023, 05:45 PM

Me neither, but I finally listened to the soundtrack in full the other week. I'm so ready for this even if still so far away!

Posted by: London 9th April 2023, 02:47 PM

Me too. I just wish Ariana was singing defying gravity - she'd sound so good.

I had a lovely time thanks - one of my favourites. Everyone should see it.
Can you imagine if Ariana did some time in theatre land after the film - I'd die and would have to travel to see it !

Posted by: Jade 12th April 2023, 05:48 PM

Glad to hear that you had a great time again the film is slowly becoming more real:

Posted by: Jade 16th April 2023, 04:20 PM

Exciting 💖
