I’ve already seen it, and I loved “dancing through life” it was so fun! Same with “Popular” I honestly loved “Defying Gravity” probably because I love the song!!
"As long as your mine" is my all time favorite! I've been watching movie clips, interviews & trailers of the movie for hours but have not heard about this song in the movie! i hope its in!
@@ali5ter478 noooo, this movie is act 1 and as long as you're mine is act 2, that song will be in the next movie which comes next year! the movie was still incredible though, wish i could have act 2 now!
I love how considerate Ariana is toward Jeff. He is hard of hearing so he is answering as best he can, and she leans over every now and then to make sure he understands what's being talked about. So much respect.
Talking about how the first song they had sung together to practice was For Good, and we won't even get to hear it for ourselves until part 2. No fair 😭😭
crazy how people are being rude about Jeff ("guy in the black") when he's hard of hearing... wild how when you struggle as you get older, people think you're "creepy"... put some respect on Jeff! He's very respected for all actors and actresses! 😢
@@usagimoon3885 Well, for one thing he took off his glasses and leaned in while she was speaking, and also, why wouldn't she not occasionally turn toward his direction, as she is laterally trying to include everyone in a conversational manner as she responds.
@@MaryWHernandezthey’ve been with each other for months on end on set, so I’m sure they’re aware. The interviewer possibly isn’t but I’m sure the cast does.
Jacqueline Coley was the PERFECT interviewer to choose for this! Her transitions were immaculate, the way she detailed her questions to prevent confusion. Like she’s so badass that I left the interview with a lovely impression.
It seems it’ll be this year has been great for movies Dune 2, challengers, wicked, Late Night with the devil, Civil War, The Substance, Emilia Perez, the Wild robot among many more
Honestly I really like that it's split in two parts, because the second part of the play is known to be rushed. So I'm actually excited to see what they can do with each act with two hours more. You can see that Jon is really passionate about Wicked and that he will definitely do justice to it!
@@filtrationsthey didn't film during covid : it was from december 2022 until july 2023 because of the strike ; then finished filming everything beginning of january 2024
having been following ariana since the start of her career and knowing how much she has loved wicked her whole life, this just feels like a very full circle moment.
Wonder how it's like for ariana playing in a movie with another jewish person who was the signator for the safe release of the hostages. I know Ariana being neither jewish nor arab had a signed a new petition ignoring that day and the violence against Israelis. Didn't know she acted too. I'm glad she can play her someone her own color in it. Don't remember stars of wizard of oz being extremely thin but okay
I loved everything about this interview. Props to giving this to an interviewer who is a fan of the material, she did her homework to the point of being able to teach the course on the musical, but the four people in front of her. This was great!
If Universal isn't giving up The Wizarding World of Harry Potter for any other "BIG" movie world in both of their American parks, I doubt it'll make room for 'WICKED' Parts 1 & 2.
@@darthilli she is a popstar….despite her being tons of amazing things, calling her a pop-star to appreciate certain achievements of hers isnt wrong lol
@@darthillii get where your're coming from. she's from a musical theatre background first but would you say that her telling people to 'preorder a soundtrack' is a theatre trained thing or a popstar trained thing? i think the latter. traits of a popstar and a performer/musician can exist simultaneously.
@@darthilli pop star isn’t an insult?? my girl loves Madonna and Whitney Houston and the art of pop music too. She’s one of the biggest pop stars in the entire world. I’ve been a stan for a long time and we know she loves theater. It’s part of what we love about her. But she worked hard to become a pop icon, that’s nothing to look down on.
Can we just talk about how adorable Ariana and Cynthia are 11 minutes in when John is talking? The two of them are just dancing basically, that’s pretty much what they’re doing. They’re swaying back-and-forth together coexisting feeling each other vibe.
Their chemistry as a cast is insane. This is one of the most underrated factors in why a movie becomes successful. Not solely because of the marketing or virality but the cast’s ability to attract people and give them the feeling of “I want more of them 😩”. Sooooooooo excited for the world to turn pink and green next month!! 💚💘
The way Ariana includes Jeff and keeps sort of checking in with is so heart warming. She is so sweet. Also I think Jeff is going to be magical in this role!
What do you mean, "includes Jeff"? He was a mega-star before she was born. It is she who is being included. He's done 70 films. Imagine how many interviews he's done. He's already included; she just became a part of it. I think all three of them are extremely talented, Jeff just has more experience. He's not missing anything, no matter how he appears. You'd have to see him off camera more, that's just the way he is.
I have been to OZ and returned to tell the tale. It was an absolute dream to chat with the team behind Wicked. Get your Tickets, folks. It will be a magical night at the movies.
That would be awesome but a lot of the sets were built in Soundstages and on backlots, and most likely will be torn down. The tulips will be replanted since they are bulb flowers. Would be cool if they kept some if it for the Universal Studios tour, or had an Oz land be built into the park, which they might since this is a Universal Film.....
I absolutely love that the movie sets are physical. It brings in a more realistic touch & feel to these places in the film. Physcial sets are something that these big production companies are lacking now a days due to cgi being the overall choice dude to budget and cost reasons. What a breath of fresh air.
This video was my first exposure to this channel, and I want to say kudos to Jacqueline Coley-what a great interviewer. She effortlessly forms a connection with the interviewees on a basic human level, sets and maintains a tone that fosters a comfortable space for her guests, and balances the pacing perfectly, clearly showing she’s done her research. This was a joy to watch, thank you.
i don't have words right now, oh my god... what a beautiful cast. i love their bond so much. this movie isn't even out yet and we can already tell that it's the movie of the century. the fact that it was recorded in a real scenario means the world to me. i love the love and dedication to it. it's super special and i can't wait any longer to finally be able to experience this on the big screen. well done, y'all! thank you so much for everything. i'm so proud of all of you and i love you so much💗
they look so gorgeous and unreal! i am so utterly excited. i already know it’s amazing and it isn’t even out yet !!! can’t wait for presale tickets in the uk!
I wonder why Ariana nor the interviewer mentioned Ariana’s early, Popular, from her first album. Like this woman has been PREPARING for her life long dream roll.
Ok all of them are SERVING. This is def gonna be movie of the year 💚💗 They all seem like just genuinely nice actors. And the sets for this show are MASSIVE and Jon Chu clearly put his heart and soul into making this film the most magical experience for fans ever. The fact that he had 1M REAL tulips planted truly show how deep his commitment to this movie and fans are.
I’ve never been so excited for a movie. I’m even more excited because their vocals were live not pre-recorded! Both of these ladies are immaculate performers!!🤍✨
It is rather a lot to take in. Not something one sees often. Those women should be blushing to be next to Mr. Goldblum and he has a great time with everything he does.
I love the camaraderie between them but also how that love expands to the rest of their cast and team members who aren't present by giving them their props and speaking so highly of their contributions. You can tell how much they love and care about each other but also the Wicked story as a whole. They have all put all of their energy into honoring the musical as best as they can as well as adding new elements that fit for the film adaptation. I am beyond excited to see Wicked, especially since I narrowly missed seeing it on Broadway as a child! Much love to this cast 💗💚
Agreed. Arianna giving Jonathan props for his musical number made me tear up. Such a contrast to Rachel Zeglars "his scenes may be cut" 😒 the genuine love and respect they have for each other shines so bright, and particularly Arianna and Cynthia. They are both so beautiful and talented, and they both come across just so kind and genuine. I love the Broadway show so much, I have tickets to go for the 9th time in 3 weeks in "preparation" for the movie. Haha.
That's because Cynthia Erivo invoked a spell by slapping her thighs twice (16:58) that accidentally turned on stage lights controlled by "The Clapper" and Jeff needed his shades. You don't mean to say his glasses are a hearing aid, are you? They aren't.
The extra pitches they described as worming is actually a thing. When more then one voice is in perfect pitch and the other singes down an active is also in perfect with their individual note , new notes are made. It is very cool when you can achieve this
From seeing drone videos of them filming in Munchkinland while Shiz was being built nearby to the finished footage, I can imagine the studio heads were sweating. It is, however, exactly what we need to pull us back into that childlike wonder we lost long ago to soulless CGI and hearing stories of actors sick in their trailers from constantly being surrounded by green screens. This looks breathtaking.
When someone is in love with the character that they have dreamed of being is so exciting cause you know they are going to be completely involved and won't skimp in the smallest details of becoming that character THIS IS GOING TO BE GOOOOOOOOOOOD
The immense passion that cynthia and Ariana have put into the roles of glinda and elphaba is so refreshing! And already seeing them both previously perform songs from their opposite characters, I knew they would get the chance to really bring them to life. I've been waiting almost my whole life for a film adaptation and finally it's almost here❤
I love the way (all of them, really), but especially Cynthia and Ariana look at each other when they're talking about their time working and singing together ❤❤
This interview is so wholesome. Beautiful bunch of people, and the interviewer is so good! Arianna giving props to J Bailey was just so pure and sweet. I cannot wait to see this.
I haven’t even finished watching this, but hearing Cynthia’s thoughts about the story being about being othered and how she worked with Jon on how to combine Elphaba with Cynthia’s black experience really changes the story for me. Specifically where the story goes and Jeff’s line that “the best way to bring people together is to give them a real good enemy” has extra emotional layers after listening to Cynthia. I’m from the U.S. and given my country’s history, the burning effigy of Cynthia as Elphaba is especially emotive. A story can feel stale two decades later, but thank god for Cynthia, and for Jon encouraging her to offer her perspective on all of it 💚🩷
I cannot wait. Cynthia is so so so brilliant I love her and I think Ariana is going to make jaws drop at her performance. This is going to be an absolute joy
What an absolute sincere interview for everyone involved! With a team like this, this Movie Spectacle has got to have HEART! . . . just singing . . . just elaborate sets . . . just skillful choreography . . . just good acting . . . does NOT cut it! HEART! HEART! HEART! ❤
the chill, kind vibe of this interview is what I needed on election night. so excited for this cast - I was surprised initially by their choices and now I'm just psyched!! I can totally see it and I can't wait.
Fully immersive. Stunningly spectacular. Every detail from beginning, rising up the waterfalls into this magical kingdom. To flying for freedom at the end of part one...... Every cell inside my body, felt every note, saw every colour. I fully Transported into this world. Thank you so much for your art form, every single one of you. The details in the set, costume, sound, chemistry of characters...... Looking forward to going again to watch on the big screen. So privileged to be able to watch pure genius work. Love and light to all✨ 🌈✨
what song are you most excited watch on the big screen?
I’ve already seen it, and I loved “dancing through life” it was so fun! Same with “Popular” I honestly loved “Defying Gravity” probably because I love the song!!

@@ali5ter478 noooo, this movie is act 1 and as long as you're mine is act 2, that song will be in the next movie which comes next year! the movie was still incredible though, wish i could have act 2 now!
Is there a Hunger Games musical coming out?
I saw it too. Its great!!
I LOVE that directors seem to be gravitating back to actual physical sets instead of CGI. That’s some amazing set design 🤩
YESSSS THIS ALL THE WAY!
Like Ariana said “ain’t no budget when I’m on the set”.
@@TaKyraMoonlightyuh 👱🏻♀️
Couldn’t agree more!
It was a really beautiful set. Well thought out movie with lots of heart through and through
I love how considerate Ariana is toward Jeff. He is hard of hearing so he is answering as best he can, and she leans over every now and then to make sure he understands what's being talked about. So much respect.
I love how they’re all addressing Jeff as “Sir” like the legend he is
I love how you can immediately see they have eating disorders or abuse drugs while also signaling mental illness.
i love how intently jeff listens to others :)
He's desperately trying to keep up by reading their lips. He must be having difficulty hearing.
@@giggles7179the way he leans when they're talking definitely looks like that.
@@giggles7179oh i
Is he developing dementia? :/
How old does one have to be in hollyweird to retire?
Talking about how the first song they had sung together to practice was For Good, and we won't even get to hear it for ourselves until part 2. No fair 😭😭
For good is my absolute favourite
for good is one of my absolute favorites from wicked !!!
A tragedy!! I know.
@THATJACQUELINE this film is a tragedy 😢
😢😮🤔😣🤨WAIT.. what. What do you mean part 2 😭 nobody was gonna tell me wdym
crazy how people are being rude about Jeff ("guy in the black") when he's hard of hearing... wild how when you struggle as you get older, people think you're "creepy"... put some respect on Jeff! He's very respected for all actors and actresses! 😢
he’s seems really nice too😭
they definitely should have had him sit in jon's place instead so he could hear better
we love jeff
Ppl have always thought he was creepy tho
i mean...he's done some pretty creepy things. that might be why people are calling him that, just an idea
Ariana and Jeff are so cute, they're like a grandpa and granddaughter duo 😭
Ariana did loose her grandpa, and it’s so sweet how she treats him
It was cute you could tell she would talk in his direction so he could hear her
@@usagimoon3885 yes I noticed that ! 😊
A little weird tho bc his wife is only 10 yrs older than ariana so it feels odd to see ari as his granddaughter😭😭

absolutely agree
Hope they have a great friendship after this !

No ari isn’t who you all think she is...
@@andrewmclaughlin2701too bad for you! 😂 not watching a movie js bc you don’t like a person is crazy lmao

This was the comment I was looking for! I have no idea who she was before this, but she’s on my radar now.
movie of the year and it’s not even out yet
It’s definitely looking that way
I know right!💚

And already seeing them both previously perform songs from their opposite characters, I knew they would get the chance to really bring them to life. I've been waiting almost my whole life for a film adaptation and finally it's almost here❤
fantastic interviewer, very genuine and on top of it
Much thanks!!
I never been soo excited for a movie like this OMGGGG
I love the way (all of them, really), but especially Cynthia and Ariana look at each other when they're talking about their time working and singing together ❤❤
This interview is so wholesome. Beautiful bunch of people, and the interviewer is so good!
Arianna giving props to J Bailey was just so pure and sweet.
I cannot wait to see this.
I'm so emotional watching this. I genuinely can't wait to see it!! i absolutely love ariana and Cynthia's friendship 😭
these two women are absolutely STUNNING... and the whole cast is amazing.. this movie will change lifes.
I loved the interviewer she made the cast so comfortable this was so lovely to watch!!❤
This movie was awesome to watch, experience, and listen to you. This piece of work and everyone involved will probably get awards.
Jeff is such a gem. What a row of wonderful people. The cast must be amazing. I can't wait to see the film!
Ariana in the Dorothy gingham! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I just noticed that
"Stephen Schwartz was playing the piano for us" nbd, we got it like that 🤣
the questions and everything are on fire, great interviewer!
I haven’t even finished watching this, but hearing Cynthia’s thoughts about the story being about being othered and how she worked with Jon on how to combine Elphaba with Cynthia’s black experience really changes the story for me. Specifically where the story goes and Jeff’s line that “the best way to bring people together is to give them a real good enemy” has extra emotional layers after listening to Cynthia. I’m from the U.S. and given my country’s history, the burning effigy of Cynthia as Elphaba is especially emotive. A story can feel stale two decades later, but thank god for Cynthia, and for Jon encouraging her to offer her perspective on all of it 💚🩷
Blah blah. These ethnics always play the victim even though they are taking over
As someone who discovered broadway through Glee, and has yet to see the musical, I am so excited for this movie!
Yesssss! Same I discovered broadway through glee as well! I will always love glee for that 💕
I cannot wait. Cynthia is so so so brilliant I love her and I think Ariana is going to make jaws drop at her performance. This is going to be an absolute joy
LIVE LAUGH LOVE THE WICKED CAST

so excited for this!!! you can tell the movie is going to be great because everyone behind it wants it to be the best they can make it!
The clapping scene Michelle does is also my favorite scene. She did it so well!
Lol Ariana is just so adorable. I love how she is being so supporting and adoring with Jeff - because she seems a little out of it Lol.
the chill, kind vibe of this interview is what I needed on election night. so excited for this cast - I was surprised initially by their choices and now I'm just psyched!! I can totally see it and I can't wait.
this casts chemistry is palpable and beautiful!!!!
Fully immersive. Stunningly spectacular. Every detail from beginning, rising up the waterfalls into this magical kingdom. To flying for freedom at the end of part one...... Every cell inside my body, felt every note, saw every colour. I fully Transported into this world. Thank you so much for your art form, every single one of you. The details in the set, costume, sound, chemistry of characters...... Looking forward to going again to watch on the big screen. So privileged to be able to watch pure genius work. Love and light to all✨ 🌈✨
