The post Sorry To Drop A House On You But Michelle Yeoh (!!!!!) Has Been Cast In The Wicked Movies appeared first on PEDESTRIAN.TV .

movie. Michelle Yeoh is set to play Madame Morrible, headmistress of Crage Hall at Shiz University. Expect over-the-top shenanigans and a fuck-tonne of green. If you have no idea who Yeoh is, that means you haven’t seen some of the best movies of our time — those being and , to name just a slither of her iconic filmography. The upcoming film will be split into two parts and directed by (who also happened to direct , so expect HEAT.) Part one is slated to release all the way out in 2024, while part two is set for 2025. Maybe hold off on painting your entire body green for a few more months. Cast members of the “Wicked” movie include as Glinda and as Elphaba. Truly iconic casting if you ask me — both individuals have phenomenal acting and singing skills under their belts. Grande shared the announcement of Yeoh’s casting with a huge series of exclamation marks, which is exactly how I reacted when I saw the news. Yeoh, Grande and Erivo will be joined by the father of my children , who will be playing Fiyero and as Boq. While it’s been rumoured that everyone’s favourite whimsical king will be playing The Wizard, claims he is still in talks and has not yet signed a final deal. King, pick up that pen!! You’d be perfect for the role! The movies will follow the story of how Glinda became the Good Witch who flies around in bubbles and how Elphaba ultimately turned into the Wicked Witch of the West, who melts after being splashed with water. Despite the play being two hours and 45 minutes long, the split movies aim to go deeper into the plot and explore multiple facets of all the characters. To me, this just sounds like we’ll be getting heaps of Michelle Yeoh screentime. I’ll be at the cinema on opening night screaming like a BTS fan on Twitter.
