Last month, WICKED: FOR GOOD, the second part of the film adaptation of the global musical phenomenon Wicked, finally arrived in cinemas.
The film, directed by Jon M Chu, stars Cynthia Erivo (The Color Purple) as Elphaba, Ariana Grande (13 the Musical) as Glinda, and Jonathan Bailey (Company) as Fiyero. The supporting cast also includes Marissa Bode, Ethan Slater, Michelle Yeoh, and Jeff Goldblum.
In the third of a new series called WICKED WEEKENDS, taking place throughout the month of December, Mickey-Jo is talking through the film's Easter Eggs and references to both the stage musical and novel upon which it is based and The Wizard of Oz story and film by which they were inspired.
