\n\tAnother green, not-so-wicked musical icon is coming to steal Christmas back from the Grinch \u2014 but she prefers a broomstick over a sleigh. <\/p>\n

\n\tAs reported by Variety<\/a><\/em> on Monday (Nov. 18), fans will have the ability to belt out \u201cDefying Gravity,\u201d \u201cThe Wizard & I\u201d and more tunes from Wicked<\/em>\u2018s soundtrack alongside the Witch of the West herself starting Dec. 25, when sing-along versions of the Jon M. Chu-directed flick are slated to hit roughly 1,000 theaters across North America. Exact locations and showtimes have yet to be finalized.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tAriana Grande Pulls Up Next to Driver Listening to Her Song & Starts Singing Along: \u2018Is That\u00a0Me\u2026\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\n\tThe interactive screenings \u2014 which model similar sing-alongs hosted for movie musicals such as The Greatest Showman <\/em>\u2014 will arrive just over a month after Wicked <\/em>initially premieres in theaters Nov. 22 after more than three years in the making. That\u2019s just Part 1, though; a second Wicked <\/em>film is also in the works for a November 2025 release.<\/p>\n

\n\tBoth projects star Cynthia Erivo as the greenified Elphaba and Ariana Grande as Glinda, with Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Yeoh, Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Bowen Yang, Peter Dinklage and Marissa Bode rounding out the cast. The films \u2014 which are inspired by the Broadway musical and Gregory Maguire novel of the same name \u2014 started production in 2021 and feature live onscreen vocal takes<\/a> of Stephen Schwartz\u2019s famous score, including \u201cPopular,\u201d \u201cWhat Is This Feeling?\u201d and \u201cDancing Through Life.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tLeading up to Wicked<\/em>\u2018s premiere, the cast has been busy attending various premieres all over the world: Sydney, Los Angeles, New York City, Mexico City and, most recently, London. The project has also had one of the most active press cycles in recent history, with behind-the-scenes footage, lyric videos<\/a>, numerous interviews, a new Xfinity commercial<\/a> and more all rolling out in the past week alone. Wicked <\/em>has also partnered this year <\/a>with everything from the 2024 Olympics to the \u201cYes, And?\u201d singer\u2019s R.E.M. Beauty line, Mattel and Crocs. <\/p>\n

\n\tPremiere week also featured a Tonight Show <\/em>appearance<\/a> from Grande, who recalled to host Jimmy Fallon, \u201cWhen they called me to tell me I had the part, I had one heart attack. That was the first one. And then they told me I was going to be playing opposite Cynthia Erivo, that was the second heart attack. And then I died and I\u2019m dead. And I\u2019m dead here. And I\u2019m still dead.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
