After two decades as one of the most beloved and enduring musicals on the stage, Wicked makes its long-awaited journey to the big screen as a spectacular, generation-defining cinematic event this holiday season. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Jon M. Chu (Crazy Rich Asians, In the Heights), Wicked stars Academy Award nominee Cynthia Erivo (Harriet, Broadway’s The Color Purple) as Elphaba, a young woman misunderstood because of her unusual green skin, who has yet to discover her true power—and Grammy Award-winning recording artist Ariana Grande as Glinda, a popular young woman gilded by privilege and ambition, who has yet to discover her true heart.
Nominated for Four 2025 Golden Globes, including: Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Motion Picture—Musical or Comedy (Cynthia Erivo), Best Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role in any Motion Picture (Ariana Grande), and Best Motion Picture—Musical or Comedy
