Wicked Movie Release Date
The "Wicked" movie will be released on November 22, 2024. Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo star in this film adaptation of the popular Broadway musical, directed by Jon M. Chu. The release date was moved up from November 27, giving the movie more time to gain popularity before the holiday season. This new date also helps it avoid competing with Disney’s "Moana 2." However, it will now be released on the same day as Paramount’s "Gladiator II."
The story of "Wicked" is based on Gregory Maguire’s book, which itself is inspired by L. Frank Baum’s "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" and the 1939 movie "The Wizard of Oz." The cast includes Michelle Yeoh, Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Jeff Goldblum, and Bowen Yang. The film is planned to be released in two parts, with the second part set for release on November 26, 2025.
