News about Gregory Maguire

What is this feeling? Excitement — unadulterated excitement. Fans have been eagerly waiting any and all updates regarding the film's since its "Wicked" film version was announced back in 2016. Now that the film's stars are set to meet the lead characters from next year's announcement. In images published via the official "Wicked" Instagram account on Friday, we saw leads Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande in costume as Elphaba and Galinda, respectively. Now photos reveal exactly what "Bridgerton" actor Jonathan Bailey looks like as the third member of Elphaba and Galinda's love triangle, Fiyero.

Ariana Grande seemed to be having a blast filming a scene for her forthcoming musical adaptation Wicked with her costar Jonathan Bailey. In the village of Ivinghoe, England, the 29-year-old pop star and occasional actress was seen grinning from ear and having a fit of laughter with the 35-year-old English actor. This seems to be the first time he was caught filming a scene for the adaptation of the wildly popular stage musical, which is a prequel to Gregory Maguire's book The Wizard Of Oz.

Wicked, the Grammy Award-winning Broadway musical, is headed to Sydney in 2023. For the first time next year, the lavish stage revival partly based on the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz will be performed in Sydney for the first time. It was a big win for the Harbour City, according to Ben Franklin, NSW Minister of Arts and Tourism, because it would bring millions of dollars in income.

After receiving a callback for Universal's two-part, big-screen version of the $3B-grossing Broadway musical Wicked, Maren Morris cries tears of joy on Thursday. 'Y'all, I literally don't care; yes, I do - if I go beyond this callback,' the Texan-born 32-year-old - who has over 3.9 million social media followers - said on Instastory. 'Because this is, like, 14-year-old Maren is going to do something that never was in reach.' It just didn't sound possible, so thank you for sharing this journey with me. We'll see how it goes. 'I'm just really happy.'
