Universal's WICKED Film - News & Discussion Thread

There’s a very famous drink we have here in Scotland called Irn Bru, and every time I see Boq I can’t help but think he looks like a rejected Irn Bru mascot…

Broadway Flash said: "Has anyone seen this? The audience reaction seems very enthusiastic. It also looks like there’s a turntable. How’s Jackie Burns ??"

I’m seeing it in two weeks in Glasgow so can report properly but a friend saw it in Manchester and said Jackie Burns was the weak link in a very, very strong cast. That’s not to say she was weak as my friend said she absolutely wasn’t, it’s just the entire cast are so good and her

AEA AGMA SM said: "Is there anything that even shows they are using the green glasses in the Emerald City? They weren’t used in Maguire's novel, and even in the Baum books they were dropped after the second one. So I get why they were part of Hilferty's design for the stage, but I also wouldn’t think twice if they weren’t an “everyone wears them” element in the movie."

In the stage show they wear green glasses, and there has been

I'm watching Nurse Jackie for the first time and almost every episode has a theatre actor pop up in supporting roles.

Damn. Sounds like they should have just done a London transfer instead...

jakethesnake said: "Why does everyone assume this is the ALW/Cameron MacIntosh Phantom? The show is in the public domain, like Gatsby. Isn't it feasible that this is a totally new and different production? One hint to me is that they are not using Cameron's usual casting director for this immersive production."

Because, as has been mentioned, multiple actors from ALW’s Phantom were involved in the workshop of this new production. That isn’t c

I would be very surprised if Paul Giamatti would take the role of Herbie at this point in his career. He is at a career peak; taking a featured role in a revival just doesnt sound like the right career decision.
"

He’s just been announced to star in a television spin off of a terrible horror movie series, if this is his career peak then he could do a lot worse than Herbie in a big, anticipated Broadway revival of one of the world’s most famous musicals.

BalconyClub said: "I’m not with the show and I don’t work at the theatre, but it’s a hobby to see changes from oneweeknightto other weeknights.

Wednesday night’s show already felt tighter, with a more confident Michelle Williams.

Act I ran 1 hour 19 minutes.

Act Ilran 50 minutes, including bows.

Elvis’s role has been lessened. He no longer knocks on the mansion door of Viola Van Horn but still inhabitsthe scene

I thank the kind soul who put Warren Yang in that bodysuit and the person who filmed the curtain call for us all to see.

First off, this is NOT a Broadway musical. It’s a trashy Vegas comic act masquerading as theater. The show has no coherentscript and no music except for one 11 o’clock number sung by the two leading ladiesthat is so ridiculously over the top that you listen in disbelief

I’m in Shrek right now and all those things are still in it.

Sam Mendes will direct 4 films about The Beatles (one from each member's POV) to be theatrically released by Sony in 2027

Sounds like a really interesting way of doing it, I suppose. 
 

I wish Hidden Figures had been done this way. I always felt like all three of those women deserved their own biopics.
