Wicked Trailer Reaction | Ariana Grande and Jonathan Bailey! YES PLEASE!

[@irinavalerieva]

Jonathan was working on "Fellow travelers", "Wicked" and "Bridgerton" at the same time.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Missed opportunity to say ‘There’s 2 sides to every story worth telling’.

[@calebcurtis2005]

Sir…that’s the joke. That she knows she’s green.

[@donovan311]

The "I am" at the beginning is Elphaba being sarcastic (or as you would say, taking the piss).

[@troykm]

“Didn’t she know she was green?” Der. Clearly it was sarcasm lol

[@ami_Rawkins_0502]

Dont forget that cynthia erivo is also part of the LGBTQ+ community x

[@PokhrajRoy.]

It’s the whole convent featured in the trailer: Mother Superior Cynthia, Reverend Mother Michelle, Father Jonathan and Brother Bowen.

[@AStoryWorthTelling]

It really is a brilliant cast!!!!!❤

[@rebexca3]

"Who hasn't seen Wicked?" Well... me. But I'm very excited for this

[@LuxLumen]

Not to be That Witch, but if you happened to be curious, there might be a slime tutorial or two here on youtube that could help out. Ahem.

[@carleytimmerman6451]

As a massive Wicked fan, I was STOKED when this trailer dropped. Like, kicking my legs screaming. I can’t wait to see what parts they have taken from the musical and put in the movie!!! Edit: and yes, I saw it on Broadway, it was PHENOMENAL!! I haven’t even *seen* this version of the trailer! Gave me even more chills and resulted in more nerdy freaking out hahaha

[@PokhrajRoy.]

OMG THE TRAILER WAS SO EXCITING! Cynthia Erivo is 100% THAT WITCH

[@lucifer68661]

This movie is Wicked part 1. There adapting Wicked into 2 movies. Both movies are done filming.

[@cool10234]

The you’re green response is a thing called sarcasm ……. lol

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Not Alex talking about being the Wizard’s FLUFFER. That’s such a hard job 💀

[@RobOlivierbjr64]

😂😂😂

[@ksmurthy1148]

7:45 "we're gonna get cancelled" I'm SOBBING i feel like this entire channel is just alex saying deranged things and cackling and josh just being * concerned *🤣🤣🤣

[@cruzuvalle9845]

Wicked the broadway musical came out in 2003, so it’s over 20 years old. The wicked book series came out in 1995 just fyi ❤❤❤❤

[@randomgeekcrap]

Shes obviously mocking glinda for thinking she didn't know she was green her while life

[@PinkSpace84]

I can’t stop recommending that you guys react to Dead Boy Detectives!! It’s too good to pass up. I hope you guys end up reacting to it🩵

[@BlueSourPatch8]

Yessss!

[@Snowyart743]

I wish more people would react to this show! It’s so underrated

[@richardhopkins5493]

The “Clock of the Time Dragon” was very important in the book, but isn’t really explained in the musical. The book, and its sequels are very much worth the read. You two are a HOOT! Love your Stories.

[@Charlie_Wolfe]

Wicked is my only exception to making the villain sympathetic. We love villains for their villainess!!!

[@fbowler]

*nervously raises hand* I havent seen Wicked or The Wizard of Oz before

[@patiencekillz]

actually, the book that wicked is based on has some sapphic undertones between glinda and elphaba!

[@MariaStar64]

As a huge Ariana Grande fan since Victorious I am super excited to see my girl on the big screen she is born to play Glinda 😍😍😍😍

[@CafeDeDuy]

“You’re green!” “I am” It was sarcasm 💀

[@markbaker2826]

Just seen it ! LOVED IT !!!!

[@TrentMenssen]

Elphaba's story and "Defying Gravity" especially was very much an analogy and inspiration for me to come out and leave my church behind. Very apt and I was hoping you guys would cover it.

[@kaleyrose47]

Loved the homages to the original film here. You can hear the original wicked witch’s theme from the wizard of oz, and the clip of the lion cub peaking out of the basket is reminiscent of Toto doing the same on the back of Ms. Gulch’s bicycle!

[@pupolliee]

Really looking forward to this, love the books and musical

[@cernunnos_rex]

there are two wolves inside me: "i feel like they're literally giving away the whole story here" "WHO HASN'T SEEN WICKED"

[@paintsplattered17]

"Wicked" is gay culture because "Wizard of Oz" is gay culture, you absolutely have an argument there. It's part of US gay history that the film was beloved by the queer community because of Dorothy's acceptance and love of her "queer" group of friends including the Cowardly Lion who was a not-so-subtle "sissy" stereotype. So much so that calling yourself a "Friend of Dorothy" became a covert way to tell others in the know that you were queer. Judy Garland who played Dorothy was extraordinarily accepting of her gay fans for the time, and she was regarded as a "gay icon". Also the author of the book "Wicked" is not only gay, but he and his husband were one of the first couples to be married in Massachusetts, the first US state to legalize gay marriage.

[@oldemanA]

He wasn't a "sissy", he was a "dandy lion" which is a double entendre...dandelion being the flower, and "dandy" being the early 20th century's "polite" term for someone perceived to be homosexual. When researching, you have drill passed the MOST common meaning which is someone overly concerned with their clothing/dress.

[@johnrodneyturner6750]

I need to hear more love for our girl Cynthia lol she’s about to take this movie by storm.

[@katecockroft4682]

Saw the musical several yrs ago in Bristol it was really good.

[@tallactordude]

I’ve never seen a production of Wicked, though, I do have the original Broadway cast recording. And I actually saw Jeff Goldblum in an off-Broadway show way back in 1973 before he was famous.

[@midianmtd]

Actually it was 20 years ago. I saw the first North American tour 20 years ago here in Seattle. And it was AMAZING!!!

[@ajstrauss55]

3:30 when you see clear sarcasm for the first time

[@andrewr549]

Ok I’ll go watch the trailer again and tear up again. 🥹

[@jacquie2004]

Looks interesting. Being possibly the last person on the planet not to know "Wicked" at all, looking forward to it.

[@rebeccadawn16]

I'm an Aussie but I have seen it in the west end too sooo great ❤❤

[@TheblondeKrista]

“Yes alright there’s monkeys” 😂

[@antoniamcgregor3285]

I need to hear no one mourns the wicked because Ariana's vocals in those leaked videos last year were 💯👌👌👌🔥 And goodness knows the wicked's lives are lonelyyy!!!!!! 💚💖🖤🎵

[@edliwolfstar]

I have never seen the musical itself but I am OBSSED with the soundtrack and I am so exited for this movie

[@VanVbcsllc]

Me too!

[@soniachapple3141]

I’ve seen the Australian production (1st and 2nd runs) approx 8 times

[@nicolereardon8304]

I saw the musical in Los Angeles, and I'll be seeing the movie at LEAST twice 💚

[@Jathwon]

The wizard’s fluffer took me out 😂😂😂

[@joeyace05]

I've never had the opportunity to watch the live show. I started reading the book but didn't finish it. So I'm excited to go in blind. Looks so good

[@jonmc131]

Ahh the trailer is everything!!! The sets! The costumes!! I'll be needing a dan for Jonathan Bailey and yes it's split in ymtwo films with the first one the origin story the secobd film being more in line with the Wizard of Oz

[@ignxtev]

omg!! i can’t wait for this movies, love you guys!💖💚

[@AStoryWorthTelling]

We can’t wait either!

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Both of you’re giving ‘A Story Worth Galinda-ing’

[@mizhelzweig]

3:34 yo creo que eso le pasa a la gente que es diferente y no es que lo sean sino que se los hacen sentir. 20/05/2024

[@KirkLinnDeGrassi]

The word you were looking for was GUILD LOLLIPOP Guild

[@danielcr66]

The only down side is that this is only Wicked Part 1. part 2 is 2025

[@ilzg2000]

I have seen it at the theatre twice but it never quite hit it big for me, but now I’ve seen the film I appreciate it a lot more oddly.

[@colinbaxter4732]

Wicked opened on Broadway on Halloween, October 31, 2003. And Idina Menzel opened the show in the West End a little over a year later. It is still running; is still selling out every night. And is currently the 3rd longest running Broadway Musical… ever! And would that you were not a 9 hour flight away from Los Angeles; a BIG OLD GAY meet up and Screening Party would 1000% be on my “Must Do!” List. Because you two Gays would be pee in your pants HYSTERICAL!!! 🌈🦄🤣🦄🌈 But trust! Not only for all the reasons you mentioned… AND my Anglophile Crush Jonathan Bailey! 😍🔥🇬🇧🤤🇬🇧🔥😍 As it opens here on Thanksgiving Day. After stuffing myself with Turkey & Stuffing. I will be grabbing a slice of Pumpkin Pie on my way out the door to see it! 🖤💚🖤💚🖤

[@Pixies-d1s]

Also Jonathan Bailey breaking the centuries curse that an out gay man can never play a lead role in a big franchise 😭❤ he just landed lead role in Jurassic World 🎉❤. Paving way for so many 🎉❤🏳️‍🌈💥

[@michaelkirby5773]

More gay representation: Gregory Maguire, author of the novel Wicked, is gay. Stephen Schwartz, composer of Wicked the musical, is gay.

[@jenniferrux7722]

I've never seen Wicked. I've always wanted to though. I couldn't get into the book, but I am excited to see this movie.

[@KirkLinnDeGrassi]

I have Seen wicked in multiple theaters

[@jjh8448]

2003: Wicked premieres on Broadway

[@ankitdhole705]

don't react to a trailer if all you're gonna do is talk to each other and pay literally no attention

[@MaatsFeather]

She probably wasn’t surprised that she was green. She was probably reacting to something else but the editing made it sound like she was.

[@mizhelzweig]

8:25 khé?!

[@mizhelzweig]

2:32 😂😂😂 20/05/2024

[@its_nolz3236]

would you guys ever watch dead boy detectives?? it’s an awesome show and it’s gay!

[@michaelklaus]

there are 3 reasons... #4 Ariana Grande; kinda odd that #5 ins't just: it is a musical

[@michaelklaus]

2:25 I vividly remember that the tic-k-tok dragon moved again before and after the intermission; the stage is made to resemble the clock of the time dragon from the Wicked novel that inspired the play; in the novel it travels the land, holds mechanical puppets, and shows prophetic scenes; it depicts Elphaba's birth and seemingly tries to tell her about the identity of her true father; in the play we, the audience, basically see all the events play out in the clock; so basically the actors play puppets who portray characters if you will; I always found this more true to the montage of Elphaba's upbringing; especially how different characters enter and leave the stage through doors in the back reminds me of the puppet play of the Munich town hall and similar displays. Like the town hall of Goslar, house Schmieding in Minden or the pied piper display in Hameln.

[@michaelklaus]

3:27 I just want to pet you, you are so sweet;

[@percyweasley9301]

Cute 🥺 babies

[@anthonywilson6554]

I read the books decades ago but have never seen the musical. I can't wait for this movie, but I have to say that I'm not much of an Ariana Grande fan.

[@breawhite6]

plz react to the selena movie 1997

[@VanVbcsllc]

While I don't know if the film will contain any queer secondary characters, the film does have quite a number of queer identifying actors in it!

[@dsacrazybitch]

I don't think reaction vids are for you

[@joelmu13]

Johnathan Bailey is nice but have you seen Josh's arms 🔥🫦

[@ericabunin]

I was so excited when they announced Wicked was getting made into a movie, but then disappointed that it's being split into two parts, and completely devastated that they cast Arianna Grande. I just find her so unbearably insufferable that I now don't plan on paying to see it it in theaters. I'll eventually watch when it's on streaming, so I can mute it whenever she speaks.

[@dcemerald70]

I will never forget my first experience of seeing the musical and seeing all the beautiful sets and the costume designs, as well as the amazing talented cast. And I had just recently saw it again this past Christmas as I was introducing it to a family friend, so I am so hyped to see this iconic story come to the screen! And ironically the first musical I ever performed was the Wizard of Oz where I played Professor Marvel and the Wizard. 🫧🧹🩷💚
