Wicked has thoroughly impressed critics, who have declared the movie musical a “masterpiece” and a must-see following early screenings.
Directed by John M Chu, the new screen adaptation of the Broadway hit stars Ariana Grande as Glinda the Good Witch and Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba the Wicked Witch of the West. The film, which has been split into two parts, acts as an origin story for the popular Wizard of Oz characters, who forge an unlikely but profound friendship at school.
