Description:
From Gregory Maguire’s beloved 1995 dark fantasy novel to the 2003 hit Broadway musical to this blockbuster film adaptation by director Jon Chu, Wicked (2024, rated PG) tells the backstory of the infamous witches of Oz. EGOT powerhouses Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande sparkle as young students at Shiz University in Oz who start off as best friends before being driven apart by their opposing destinies. Erivo is Elphaba, misunderstood because of her unusual green skin, who has yet to discover her true power. Grande is Glinda, privileged and ambitious, who has yet to discover her true heart. Following an encounter with the great and powerful Wizard of Oz, their friendship reaches a crossroads and their lives take very different paths. Glinda's relentless desire for popularity leads her to be seduced by power, while Elphaba's determination to remain true to herself and those around her turns out to have unexpected consequences. The shocking story of how they become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch of the East illuminates a fascinating dimension of the Oz universe.
