A “Wicked” movie would be made based on the Tony Award-winning musical and best-selling book by Gregory Maguire. The musical, which reveals the untold story of the Wicked Witch of the West had Idina Menzel (voice of Elsa) as the star Elphaba in its original Broadway cast.
With the musical having been such a huge worldwide hit (it’s grossed over $1 billion), it has been the hope of many fans that it would be brought to the big screen.
It is now official that we will be seeing a “Wicked” movie from Universal, to be released December 20, 2019.
The film will be directed by Stephen Daldry (Billy Elliot, The Hours) and produced by Marc Platt (Scott Pilgrim, Drive).
No announcements of movie cast members have been made, but it would be rather incredible if original cast members Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth made an appearance!
