Directed by Jon M. Chu, Wicked‘s magical cast includes features Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, alongside Michelle Yeoh, Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Marissa Bode, and Jeff Goldblum as the legendary Wizard of Oz.
Wicked Part One is set to fly into cinemas on November 27th 2024, while Wicked Part Two is scheduled to arrive on November 26th, 2025.
