What happens in the new Wicked video?
This exclusive backstage video focuses on Jeff Goldblum’s upcoming role as the legendary Wizard, a character initially portrayed by Frank Morgan in The Wizard of Oz (1939) and later by James Franco in Oz the Great and Powerful (2013). In the video, Goldblum shares insights about his character within the musical production. He refers to him as an inventor, circus performer, and storyteller, suggesting that he deceives the people of Oz by appearing to have magical abilities.
In simpler terms, the Wicked movies are helmed by director Jon M. Chu, who collaborated with Winnie Holzman on the screenplay based on her work for the musical. The story is adapted from Gregory Maguire’s popular novel and the award-winning stage production. The impressive cast includes Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible, Jonathan Bailey as Fiyero Tigelaar, Jeff Goldblum as the Wizard of Oz, Peter Dinklage as Doctor Dillamond, Bowen Yang as Pfannee, Keala Settle as Miss Coddle, Marissa Bode as Nessarose Thropp, Bronwyn James as ShenShen, Ethan Slater as Boq, and others.
The film narrates an unspoken tale about the witches of Oz: Elphaba, a young woman with unique green skin who’s yet to unlock her hidden power, and Glinda, a well-known young lady blessed by privilege and ambition but yet to find her true compassion. Their paths cross at Shiz University in the magical realm of Oz, where they form an unexpected yet profound friendship. After meeting The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, their relationship reaches a critical juncture, leading their lives down divergent paths. Glinda’s relentless pursuit of popularity is lured by power, whereas Elphaba’s commitment to staying true to herself and those around her will lead to surprising and startling consequences on her destiny. Their extraordinary journeys across Oz will eventually help them realize their destinies as Glinda the Good Witch and the infamous Wicked Witch of the West.
