Plot
A prequel to "The Wizard of Oz," "Wicked" recounts everything that happened before Dorothy walked down that iconic yellow brick road — and tells the story of the unlikely friendship between Elphaba, who later becomes the Wicked Witch of the West, and Glinda, known as the Good Witch. It also reveals how the Wicked Witch got that pointy hat. The cast includes Ariana Grande as Glinda, Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, Jonathan Bailey as Fiyero, Jeff Goldblum as the Wizard, Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible, and Ethan Slater as Boq. "Wicked" is the first of a two-part feature film adaptation of the Broadway musical.
