How could you possibly know without having seen the movie? The minute or so we can see in this video looks nice, but there's over two hours to this movie, and based on how far part 1 gets into the story, it's going to be about 50% filler compared to the Broadway show. I have a feeling that fact in and of itself is going to bring the movie down to an intolerable drag. And you won't see any of that filler in the promo material.
@@samara.ariel.jpg_ right?? and their timing too! i bet that’s not easy since you can’t really predict how long the other person is gonna sustain a phrase or note for
I can’t even remember the last time a film musical had promise like this!! (not including filmed musicals, obvs) I’m gonna die mad about “Beauty and the Beast”. Ooh! Cinderella. Cinderella with Whitney and Brandy, maybe 1997? That was the last time. 🤣
Can we take a moment to throw some praise to the tech crew who are successfully recording all this without background interference and are doing it outdoors even with unpredictable wind and a dozen other variables! 🏆
I watched a vid recently where a group was trying to recreate the conditions of The Beatles recording outside on the roof and how it sounded so good. They were actually surprised at how well things recorded outside -- not being in an enclosed room actually produces a more clean dry sound.
@@alextirrellRI thats when its all performed together though. In this situation, the actors are singing live, but the orchestra is not playing live with them, and I doubt the ensemble is singing live for each take. So the sound tech and editors are mixing several different performances in different spaces together, having to make it sound cohesive.
And yet Universal claim there is no money for a crew screening of the film... which usually always happens on a big film. They can afford to ship sets and costumes to Sydney LA, NYC, send ridiculous merch to 'influencers' but no money to say thanks to the crew for making the film what it is...
you know the impact of that would be crazy though. Probably more believable that they are friends saying goodbye, since you would have been with them for over a year
I LOVE that they are singing live. Shows that they are both GREAT singers. It definitely makes it more special, especially since they didn't have to do it. But they obviously CAN do it and they chose to do it. TRUE TALENT.
I think some of those shots would be live, especially close up ones, but gonna bet they'll use pre/post recorded tracks for those other shots cuz god that would be so hard to do; sing while being flung around a sound stage. But I guess it's possible to do it live, look at Pink HAHAHHAA😂.
With actors, delivering dialogue _alone_ requires multiple takes. To capture flawless vocals of a difficult score while dancing, flying, climbing on giant cogs? Damn!
Cynthia and Ariana singing a preview of "Defying Gravity" together is such chemistry 🩷💚🩷💚🩷💚🩷. 1:59 - 2:16 I'm sooooo looking forward to this Wicked-tastic movie in cinemas soon 😁😁😁😁😁
Not one but TWO completely unexpected riffs in this very brief video! This makes me even more excited that the powers that be are allowing the actors to make their own vocal choices instead of sticking strictly to the page.
Wait…I’m kind of obsessed with the acapella. Wicked’s social media team: If you’re reading this, I would LOVE to see an acapella cut on the DVD. There’s something so natural about them singing with no backing track, because if you were to harmonise with a friend in real life, a score wouldn’t appear out of thin air to accompany your singing. I know that’s all part of suspending disbelief, but to see snippets of them singing with no backing track was beautiful. I would absolutely LOVE to see a cut of the final film where there’s no backing track.
I'm literally holding back tears, like they are dropping stuff left and right like it's completely normal to be this good already and we haven't even seen the best of it. Dying DYing DYING.
Don't know much about this story but i love musicals and i'm a big fan of the Wizard of Oz! The singing sounds epic! Apart from their awesome voices both Ariana and Cynthia can really act too! I think this movie will be epic because of the attention to detail and Jon's vision to make this perfect and a true spectacle, just like The Wizard of Oz is! 👏🏻

This shows so much respect to Broadway on so many ways. Is like Ariana and Cynthia are the new cast for New York and they'll be just screening the entire thing.
Whether a cappella or not these ladies just stole my heart in two minutes Is it wrong that I have the Broadway version? And then I want to add the movie versions of all the songs.
OMG!!!! THERE'S 1 MOVIE IN MY LIFE WHICH I'VE KNOWN SINGING LIVE WHEN THEY TURN THE BROADWAY INTO MOVIE MUSICALS AND THAT WILL BE LES MISERABLES!! AND NOW THIS!? OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG THIS IS GOING AMAZING AND I CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH IT!!!
I really really really hope we’re not gonna lose the « live » quality with so much post production editing that it will completely lose its « raw » live quality. Because I feel like it’s what I already hear in the trailer and I’m like « it sounds like a studio record, not a live record »… I hope it’s gonna sound a bit raw like Chicago. other than that I’m super super excited !
When I heard they were making a movie of Wicked, I was pretty skeptical given the enormous amounts of remake/adaptation slop that Hollywood has churned out in recent years. But these previews look pleasantly surprising. It looks like they actually are putting some heart into this movie. I also had no idea Ariana Grande was an actor, I thought she was just another pop diva, but here it looks like she actually has some talent which is pretty great.
Having seen Cynthia in the revival of Color Purple, and in-concert, I can tell you, she is just phenomenal. Looking forward to what she does with Elphaba.
At first I wasn’t really happy with the casting choises, but what I see and hear here and all that live singing makes me wanna go to the theaters and watch it! Wow! This is what we wanna watch and hear in the movies as musical fans! Go girls!
It's already a 10/10, even if I haven't watched it yet. This is my type of movie. I just know all the cast are gonna DELIVER and SERVE HARD and the visuals will be VISUALIZING!!!
I love this. Loyal to musical theatre. The scene partner then gets to RECEIVE that emotion differently AND the EMOTIONAL MOMENTUM of the scene contextualizing it and the actions can influence the acting so much so it just flows so much more naturally
now THIS is how you bring a broadway musical to the big screens
Yes! Bring the music!
Yes!!!!!!!
I’m so ready to see it in the big screens as a huge wicked fan!!!
How could you possibly know without having seen the movie?

@@StarMantaI heard Part 1 ends at Defying Gravity
See how much better movie musicals are when you hire actors who sing instead of just celebrities?!
I agree with you😁😁
Emma Watson has fucking left the chat.
Very mindfull, very demure
You can hire celebrities. Just dub them. They’ve been doing that for decades.
Emma Watson left the chat.
Cynthia and Ariana are insane vocally so this movie is going to have an incredible sound track
Absolutely! ❤
Im sorry to the original soundtrack either kristin and idina, because after this new one out on spotify I will just listen to that
I know after this movie I am go to the soundtrack
2:00 they’re absolutely weren’t kidding. their voices blend so well together
thwe fact they did the shots live with no music and added it after!!! theyre incredible
RIGHT I cant even recognize who is who they are so connected in one
@@samara.ariel.jpg_ right?? and their timing too! i bet that’s not easy since you can’t really predict how long the other person is gonna sustain a phrase or note for
.... And even more insane: They never tested the two _together_ prior to casting. Some things are simply fate.
@@samara.ariel.jpg_ they have earpieces where they hear either playback( or a piano playing live like in Les Mis)
Yo, a musical thats PROUD of being a musical… oh we are going to be FED LOL
I can’t even remember the last time a film musical had promise like this!! (not including filmed musicals, obvs) I’m gonna die mad about “Beauty and the Beast”. Ooh! Cinderella. Cinderella with Whitney and Brandy, maybe 1997? That was the last time. 🤣

Yeah, the editors and the tech crew need their own award category when it comes to stuff like this.
I watched a vid recently where a group was trying to recreate the conditions of The Beatles recording outside on the roof and how it sounded so good. They were actually surprised at how well things recorded outside -- not being in an enclosed room actually produces a more clean dry sound.

For sure and I also think only some of the truly live vocals will be used. Others will use pre records and others post records for cleaner capture
And yet Universal claim there is no money for a crew screening of the film... which usually always happens on a big film. They can afford to ship sets and costumes to Sydney LA, NYC, send ridiculous merch to 'influencers' but no money to say thanks to the crew for making the film what it is...
I want a 12 hour documentary about this movie!
BRING IT!!!! I want ALL the footage, from auditions to rehearsals to stunt work. EVERYTHING!!!!!
@@lonellfletcher And the bloopers. All the things🤣❤
Fr
“They wanted to sing live”
Me: *flashbacks to Hugh Jackman’s dehydrated vibrato*
Still traumatized. Sideways is probably shaking in his boots.
All I can think of is the les mis movie & what a nightmare it turned into because they chose to do live vocals
@@Chris-lt7ry but many of them were not singers...just actors who kind of sing.
@@Chris-lt7ry it turns out when you dehydrate actors and make them do 8 hours of takes it's bad news bears and a wonder any of them still have a voice
1. Hi, fellow Sideways fans
2. Let’s hope Jon M Chu actually takes care of the actors
JONATHON SLAYED THAT DUET.
i did not know that he could sing!!!
MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY
I CANT BELIVE I HAVE TO WAIT TILL 2025 TO HEAR “FOR GOOD” WITH CYNTHIA AND ARIANA!!!!
I know right that's the one song I wanted to hear the most ❤🥺
It’s not just Elphaba, time flies too! It’ll come around quick ❤
you know the impact of that would be crazy though. Probably more believable that they are friends saying goodbye, since you would have been with them for over a year
Nahhh who cares about For good, I want to hear no good deed
@@kenlam1185 fr and the fact that they are great friends off the screen too. We will really see the impact
I cried again. Just about every trailer they release of this movie has made me tear up. I’m going to be a PUDDLE when I see it in theaters.
same!
You’re not alone 🥹
Oh gosh am I glad I'm not the only one 😭
Same!!!!!
SAME! I know the actual film will have me in shambles
The vocals in this movie are so powerful and angelic
I LOVE that they are singing live. Shows that they are both GREAT singers. It definitely makes it more special, especially since they didn't have to do it. But they obviously CAN do it and they chose to do it. TRUE TALENT.
1:51 The production member crying after hearing Cynthia’s I’m Not That Girl is gonna be all of us on November 22nd 😭
that's my birthday!
I keep rewinding 0:57 cause Cynthia’s voice is SO SMOOTH HOLY COW 😮💨💚
production crew lady just stupidly amused and impressed by cynthia's vocals is me right now. holy moly !
in addition to the live singing i appreciate how much of the sets they built instead of just relying on green screens. 👏👏👏
Jonathan Bailey tilting his head up at 1:04 was PERFECT!! I cant wait to see this whole cast perform!!! 💚🩷💚🩷💚🩷💚🩷💚🩷💚🩷💚
cannot believe he's not straight.... the chemistry is unreal
@@SocialClout Says every theater girl that’s ever existed 😂 Ariana even has a song about it lmao
I am internally screaming!!! Dancing through life!! Jonathan and Ariana!! 💙🩷
Is anyone preordering Wicked Soundtrack and DVD now before its released publicly and after it played in cinemas?
It makes me so happy that this movie is shamelessly a musical, advertising itself for what it is, and colorful as hell. We are so back.
bro I wanna hear the raw takes of cynthia singing while being swung around on the ropes, I bet she's still insanely good!
I think some of those shots would be live, especially close up ones, but gonna bet they'll use pre/post recorded tracks for those other shots cuz god that would be so hard to do; sing while being flung around a sound stage. But I guess it's possible to do it live, look at Pink HAHAHHAA😂.
@@이마크-r8eomg true! She's an acrobat! And yeah I get what you mean but I wanna hear what the crew heard
We just got exactly that today!!!!!
Ariana has proven her voice over the years of her career as a singer and actress but never would I have thought there's so much more to her voice
With actors, delivering dialogue _alone_ requires multiple takes. To capture flawless vocals of a difficult score while dancing, flying, climbing on giant cogs? Damn!
1:59 OH MY GOSHHH I'M GONNA CRY 😭
Cynthia and Ariana singing a preview of "Defying Gravity" together is such chemistry 🩷💚🩷💚🩷💚🩷. 1:59 - 2:16

It’s probably gonna have us be in tears as well.
Not one but TWO completely unexpected riffs in this very brief video! This makes me even more excited that the powers that be are allowing the actors to make their own vocal choices instead of sticking strictly to the page.
Yes! I love that they're making it their own. I'm gonna be a mess in the cinema 😭😭😭
Absolutely outstanding. John outdone himself. And of course Cynthia and Ari SINGING LIVE absolutely the next level of masterpiece.
i’ve made it through all the promos videos without crying but this one got me😭
0:38 CHOICES.... I'M HERE FOR THE CHOICES... AND I'M AMAZED
RIGHT?! IT SOUNDS SOOO GOOD IN MY EARS! I'm so happy with these choices!
Obsessed. I will wear that soundtrack out!!!!!
it sounds so goooooood i can’t wait
I’ve never been a musical person, never seen any rendition of wicked and I’m so excited for this
Oh I’m so excited for you, you’ll never be the same.
Me too! I don't know anything about this story only the belter song. If that🤔
1:32 OH CYNTHIA ATEEEE WITH THIS
the vocals is giving Whitney Houston
now THESE are the vocals we've been waiting for!!!!
"Instead of dreary WHO you were" was smooth AF 😖☝🏽👑👡👡
Wheew!!
Obsessed
Wait…I’m kind of obsessed with the acapella. Wicked’s social media team: If you’re reading this, I would LOVE to see an acapella cut on the DVD.

THE VOCALS ARE INSANE OMG 😭💖💚
Omg these song snippets are already SO POWERFULLLL!!!! Ughhhh my expectations keep soaring!! 😆🥹🩷💚
I steered bawling on I’m not that girl 😭😭😭 that song had such a special place in my heart
This hug from thumbnail absolutely melts my heart. Ari is full of love. This two are like twins that are with each from birth even before it
1:10 DEVOURED HE ATE THAT UP
Oh my God Ariana‘s soprano. I love it. I freaking love it. Truth be told that’s what brought me here.
Their voal blend at 2:06 is wild!!!
1:02 I can almost feel the chills that were probably being felt by the crew, being right next to Cynthia with her incredible range.
I am loving the teasers we're getting!!!
They sound so good, I literally have chills. The fact that it's all live is insane
I've been sobbing all the video; goodness, Cynthia's voice... immaculate.
I sense a Golden Globe AND an Oscar!!!
A few actually 🤗🤗🤗
The voices sound so stunning
0:57 Aaaaaaahh💚
I'm literally holding back tears, like they are dropping stuff left and right like it's completely normal to be this good already and we haven't even seen the best of it. Dying DYing DYING.
love this. love actual SINGERS in movie musicals.
Don't know much about this story but i love musicals and i'm a big fan of the Wizard of Oz! The singing sounds epic! Apart from their awesome voices both Ariana and Cynthia can really act too!

Singing live in a film?!?! Count me in!!
2:10 is breathtaking. I can't get enough of Ariana. How beautiful physically and her voice is! Wow.
the movie is not even out yet and i'm crying already with their beautiful beautiful harmonies 😭😭 this is going to be amazing omg 💕💚💕💚💕💚
I'm so glad that Jon trusts his actors!
Ariana Grande - Butera was the greatest choice of all. One month left save the tears until the release even though I am crying right now

This shows so much respect to Broadway on so many ways. Is like Ariana and Cynthia are the new cast for New York and they'll be just screening the entire thing.
This is why Broadway is so special because of the live singing
0:45 Yes! I’ve been waiting to hear Ari hit that “popular… lar…” for so long!
Why I am crying over hearing some songs?? Singing live is such a great idea!!
I’ve never been so excited for a movie in my life.
Cynthia Erivo & Ariana Grande live vocals as Elphaba & Glinda in Wicked is just so phenomenal!
THEY SOUND SO AMAZING 🫧 I can’t wait for this movie
I get goosebumps every time i hear Ariana and Cynthia sing together I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS MOVIE 😭♥
That Dancing through life gave me so much joy
Whether a cappella or not these ladies just stole my heart in two minutes
Is it wrong that I have the Broadway version? And then I want to add the movie versions of all the songs.

The way Cynthia’s and Ariana’s voices blend☺️
So awesome that they're ACTUALLY singing!!❤
I’m already getting chills!!! I can’t wait to get this wicked birthday started!!!

Singing live is so much better! ❤
