WICKED OFFICIAL TRAILER REACTION | Wicked Movie 2024

[@gudulpif264]

“Are they dueting defying gravity?” Yes… it’s a duet….

[@alexl.7668]

I cried while watching this trailer. Elphaba and Glinda sing part of Defying Gravity in the show lol. I don't think they showed too much. It's a 3-minute trailer for a movie that's maybe going to be 2 hours. They just showed us the basic plot points. I read that movie 1 will end after Defying Gravity. There are things in this trailer that weren't in the stage show, so I think there will be suprises. Where do you think Frozen got some of the ideas lol. Wicked came out first and they had some similar elements. Also, we mostly see Elphaba and Glinda in this trailer. There’s so many other old and new characters to see.

[@keytothemagic]

Some great points! I'm looking forward to seeing the other characters highlighted. I can't wait to hear Jonathan sing! Especially, with Cynthia!

[@alexl.7668]

@@keytothemagic yes. He’ll be fantastic!! Wonder what they’re doing with all of the new characters too.

[@DoctorDisney]

I’m also excited for the surprises and Easter eggs!

[@alexl.7668]

@@DoctorDisney me too

[@alyce831]

They have said they are doing some of the stuff from the books that was not in the musical also.

[@randyseay4855]

It may seem to those of us who know the show well that they’re giving away everything in the trailer but for all those who haven’t seen the show, I think this creates extraordinary excitement and curiosity.

[@Patff]

They always have a part of Defying Gravity where Elphaba and Glinda duet.

[@KleinLolly]

The trailer looks AMAZING! I also really liked what we saw from Ariana as Glinda

[@DoctorDisney]

She’s so popular

[@TherealRNOwwfpooh]

[@cnp3205]

Ok yes they showed A LOT of the main storyline in the trailer but if you REALLY think about it...there's still a lot of story left in Act 1. There's been so many criticism and doubt from [especially] musical fans...this trailer felt like them making a point...this movie is going to be GOOD, Cynthia and Ariana were the right casting choice, we're going to honour the music and give you MORE!

[@justinswag3403]

My thoughts exactly. They wanted to resolve suspicions and it seems to be resonating. I love this trailer ❤

[@alexl.7668]

Omg yes. Exactly!!

[@ZHOZEP]

I personally feel like there’s showing the story, and then there’s seeing how it plays out. So I don’t mind it.

[@TherealRNOwwfpooh]

@@ZHOZEP The movies will also be adding certain elements from Gregory Mcguire's novel that the musical omits, too. Now, whether that means Boq stays a Munchkin & the Tin Woodsman keeps his original literary name of Nick Chopper or if it means Fiyero is legitimately killed by the Ozian milita serving the corrupt powers that be & doesn't become the brainless Scarecrow (for now, that may be a musical exclusive, although there is the strong possibility that the movies will retain the character changes done by the musical, especially since we already have seen Nessarose in her wheelchair -- with her being depicted the way she's shown in the musical, except that there's much less ableist ways that her character is being handled due to real-life wheelchair user Marissa Bode being in the role -- rather than lacking arms like her novel counterpart & Jonathan Bailey, as good as he may be, isn't a man of color, nor does he appear to have the sparkling blue diamonds on his body that dark-skinned literary Fiyero canonically has) is looking much less likely, but that doesn't still mean that other specific elements from the novel that the musical ignored or couldn't show for brevity's sake can't appear in the two films.

[@keytothemagic]

The film looks so gorgeous! I can't wait to see it! I love that it's such a passion project for Jon M. Chu and that he really wanted to make it spectacular!

[@blainedavis8819]

Also they duet defying gravity in the show

[@joshuacoldwater]

THANK YOU, so many people give all of the credit to whomever is playing Elphie for that track….. which I understand, but it isn’t NEARLY as difficult a performance as “The Wizard and I”. There are very few times I have ever, ever had chills head to toe. Indina Menzel performing that song as I sat in the crowd at eleven years old was one of those times. I think the only other person who was CLOSE was Lindsay Mendez.

[@blainedavis8819]

@@joshuacoldwater I’m a big Alyssa Fox and Alice Fearn fan

[@PigsInYourYard]

lol right the song is a literally a duet although the lead is def Elphaba

[@henryernestobuteralopez1147]

This is one of the best reactions so far!! He didn’t miss what normally the rest have missed cause they can’t stop talking! Thank u for your reaction! ❤🩷💚

I love the classic look of the wicked witch costume! 👍👍

[@tylervalentine7988]

I’ve read the book but have unfortunately never gotten to see the musical…so I’m EXTREMELY excited for this movie and can’t wait to see it!

[@CeltycSparrow]

If you are going to rent out an entire theater to watch a movie, I would DEFINITELY choose THIS movie over Mufasa to have the honor of being the movie you watch. I have not even seen them yet, and I can already guarantee this will be 10,000 times more worth your time and money to see. I agree with you...there are musicials and then there are musical masterpieces. 2019's Cats clearly falls in the first category...as does the Lion King. This one is clearly worthy of a masterpiece.

[@이마크-r8e]

I haven't seen the play but I do know the general gist of it and some of the songs and I'll say I think they showed enough scenes to enable unfamiliar people to know what the movie is gonna be about. Can't wait for this in November!

[@adirnahum126]

The creator of the movie already said it will end after defying gravity just like the musical cause nothing can’t come after this.

[@gareedwards]

Great reaction video! I think the idea of renting out a theater to watch this would be amazing

[@TheMovieGeek_Uk]

I don’t think there showing to much because most people know the show and if you don’t then they are practically just giving them the bases of the story there will be loads more to see

[@PigsInYourYard]

Defying gravity is a duet tho? im confused lol

[@V_4_Versace]

Did everyone apply to Shiz university too?!

[@TherealRNOwwfpooh]

"It's Elsa vs Anna." You know, except much more LGBTQ+, since Elphie & G[a]linda are CANON BISEXUAL (mutually for Fiyero and of course, EACH OTHER) & aren't canonical sisters; That distinction belongs to half-siblings Elphie and Nessa, although neither are technically Munchkinland governor/roving preacher Frex's child, since... Warning: SPOILERS ahead! ~SPOILERS begin here~ ...Elphie is born from an adulterous affair (and essentially, statutory rape) between Marlena (Frex's promiscuous wife, who is constantly left alone to drink her loneliness away whilst her husband is out converting believers to his congregation) & The Wizard (who does the deed meanwhile Marlena is clearly heavily inebriated). So Elphie is a mixed breed of both native Ozian & a person from our world (the Outer World beyond OZ, from whence both The Wizard & Dorothy Gale both come from). Nessarose is born during a shared threesome between marrieds Frex X Marlena & their shared Quadling male love interest Turtle Heart, however, once Turtle Heart gets deathly sick & soon dies, Nessa becomes Frex's favorite among his two daughters, predominately because Nessa is mainly the offspring of the two people whom Frex loved the most, namely his wife Marlena (who actually dies giving birth to crippled Nessa, a tragic circumstance which Frex automatically unfairly blames Elphie for, rather than the absorbent amount of milk flowers which Frex himself had forced his wife to constantly consume to ensure Nessa didn't turn out green, which is the real definitive reason why Marlena had died, since consuming too many milk flowers can be fatal) & Turtle Heart (the couple's shared lover), with Frex himself arguably doing very little to contribute to either witch sister's creation. ~/End SPOILERS

[@pillowvibes]

They also don’t have a sister dynamic, so I don’t know why he even said that to begin with lmao there’s nothing even remotely similar about those duos

[@TherealRNOwwfpooh]

@@pillowvibes I can sort of understand the comparison, since _Frozen_ is basically _The Snow Queen_ fairytale (in which the title character is the villainess of the story) given a "Wicked" makeover, right down to Idina Menzel being the original OBC Elphie and voicing Elsa, not to mention both Elphie & Elsa are elemental magic users (fire & ice, respectively), they're seen as threats to their home simply because of heretic hearsay that paint them in a bad light (never mind Elsa accidentally trapping Arrendale in an eternal winter entirely by accident and everything good Elphie does ends up having a negative consequence), and they sing a catchy earworm song about feeling "unlimited" and/or wanting to "let [it] go", which in turn, allows them greater control over their magical abilities (~cue the mashup "Let It Defy Gravity" by Erin Rementer~), and both characters have a close bond with a bubbly character voiced by a Kristin (Chenoweth for G[a]linda & Bell for Anna).

[@antoniom.rendon570]

Let me know when and where and I'll be there , lol. It looks soooo good 👍🏻

[@gracebleekman2557]

This sounds a little bit random but I feel like watching an episode of Doggy Kamealoha could be fun.

[@blainedavis8819]

I wouldn’t say they’re showing too much bc anyone can go watch the show or look up a bootleg and just watch the movie. Idk that might be a hot take

[@joshuafoster8726]

I was so annoyed at how much they showed in the trailer like major plot twists.

[@vardchrystie9871]

Disappointed that Arianna is imitating Cheneweth's singing. She has impersonated other singers before....so here it is again. Close your eyes and all you hear is Cheneweth. Would have been great for her to make it her own.

[@paola7045]

You can’t make everyone happy. People want her to embody the original and others want her to be different. She can never win.

[@MrGusEnglishLessons]

Nahhh, she is acting 😊 👑 Her angelic voice is for her successful music career 💋

[@berniecasey7592]

LOOKS LIKE GARBAGE

[@TherealRNOwwfpooh]

Except, a lot of things in it are actually practical & not CGI like you think (the exceptions would be when the CGI only enhances what's already tangibly there [the tulips, Shiz University, the OZdust Ballroom, the train taking the witches to The Emerald City & The Emerald City itself are ALL real, as is Cynthia being rigged up to a harness to fly meanwhile wearing a tight corset & belting out _Defying Gravity_ while suspended in the air] or else, when CGI is used to create the sapient, talking Animals).
