‘What Underwear Would Glinda Wear?’: Ariana Grande’s Preparation For Wicked Went Much Deeper Than I Thought, Up To And Including Witch Panties

by

As a seasoned cinephile with over three decades under my belt, I can confidently say that “Wicked” is one of the most delightful surprises of this holiday season and the entire year of 2024. The film adaptation of the beloved stage musical, directed by Jon M. Chu and featuring a powerhouse duo in Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, has struck a chord with both Broadway aficionados and casual moviegoers alike.

Ariana Grande’s dedication to her role as Glinda is nothing short of inspiring. In an exclusive clip from the upcoming digital release of “Wicked,” she reveals that her preparation for the role went far beyond just singing and acting, delving into the intricacies of what kind of undergarments Glinda would wear on any given day. While it’s not Method acting in the traditional sense, it shows a level of commitment to the character that is truly admirable.

I can’t help but wonder if Cynthia Erivo gave Elphaba’s wardrobe the same level of thought, considering how significant her hat was to the character. Only time will tell!

Now, as for the film’s home video release and its potential impact on box office momentum, I believe that “Wicked” is poised to rule through January at least, with no real competition in sight. So if you’re feeling froggy, put on a pair of Witch Panties and settle in for one more magical screening of this long movie musical!

And as a final note, I can’t help but chuckle at the thought of Ariana Grande pondering Glinda’s underwear choices. It just goes to show that even the most dedicated actors will go to great lengths to bring their characters to life!

Without a doubt, “Wicked” stands among the most popular holiday season hits and one of the top films of 2024. This enchanting adaptation of the stage musical, directed by Jon M. Chu, has attracted both ardent Broadway fans and casual moviegoers alike, with Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo leading the cast. Our review was nothing short of ecstatic, and we eagerly await the sequel, “Wicked: For Good,” due in theaters as part of the 2025 film lineup. Interestingly, Grande has been preparing to portray Glinda for quite some time now. In a sneak peek from the upcoming digital release of “Wicked,” she shares that her preparation even extended to the witch’s undergarments!

As of December 31, Jon M. Chu’s movie “Wicked” can be digitally downloaded. In relation to its release, People shared an exclusive video where Chu and Ariana Grande discussed the audition process for Glinda. Interestingly, Grande mentioned that she had been listening carefully for any signs or indications that “Wicked” was going to start casting, for years. As the former Disney star and pop singer stated in the clip, she was eagerly waiting for a clue or a signal about the casting of “Wicked”.

In a playful manner, I often wondered, “Which soft pink outfit might Glinda prefer today?” (I) kept a small section of my wardrobe filled with delicate pink tops and accessories, ready for the occasion. For nearly a decade, I had been persistently trying to catch up with producer Marc Platt, eagerly waiting for when this movie project would materialize, giving me a chance to audition.

In the promotional video for the musical Wicked, Ariana Grande shares that she auditioned for both roles and was ready to take on either, solely to be involved in the production. She confesses that while she has affection for Elphaba, it was Glinda that she felt destined to portray. Social media has echoed this sentiment, with the actress’s performance becoming a popular topic of discussion online.

Ariana Grande demonstrates a high level of dedication to her role as Glinda, going so far as to ponder what kind of undergarments the character might wear each day. This isn’t quite Method acting, but it shows a commitment to fully embodying the character. I’m curious if Cynthia Erivo gave similar thought to Elphaba’s wardrobe, considering her iconic hat was significant to her portrayal.

Is there any chance that the home video release of Wicked might impact its ongoing success in theaters? Given that the studio has announced plans to release sing-a-long versions, fans could enjoy singing their favorite songs from the musical. If they’re interested, they can even check out our ranking of the songs. However, at present, there seems to be no significant competition for Wicked at the box office, so it might continue to thrive until at least January. So, put on your Witch Panties and prepare yourself for another viewing of this lengthy musical.
