Ariana Grande's Glinda is here to teach us all how to be "Popular!"
There's a new trailer for the first part of the highly-anticipated movie version of Wicked, and we are singing along with Glinda, Elphaba, Fiyero, and the rest of the crew as we get more and more excited for what's sure to be one of this year's biggest film events!
The new trailer focuses on some of the songs from the film, giving us a chance to hear what they'll sound and look like.
First, it gives us a great preview of one of the most popular songs from the musical, "Popular!" Not only do we get to hear Ariana Grande singing it, but we get to see what part of that sequence will look like in the movie, with Elphaba trying on different accessories from Glinda and Glinda showing her the proper poise when she talks to boys in the mirror!
One thing we're especially excited about in this new trailer is the highlight it gives Jonathan Bailey's handsome Fiyero! We already learned that he's Oz's most eligible bachelor, and now, we get to see him dance and sing!
The trailer gives viewers a chance to hear part of Fiyero's song "Dancing Through Life," which introduces the character as a happy-go-lucky playboy.
As if all of that wasn't enough, we also got to find out which songs from the original musical will be featured in the film!
It's no surprise that the movie will end with the epic showstopper "Defying Gravity," as that's the end of the first act, but it is somewhat surprising to see that the movie will be keeping all songs intact from the first act!
Many movie adaptations of popular musicals skip some songs, like "Mama, I'm a Big Girl Now" in Hairspray, "I Guess This Is Goodbye, "Maybe They're Magic," and "Ever After" from Into the Woods, and "Anybody Have a Map" and "Good for You" in Dear Evan Hansen.
In Wicked: Part 1, it seems like we'll get all the songs from act one of the play!
Wicked: The Soundtrack drops on November 22 and is available for pre-order starting today! And Wicked: Part 1 also hits theaters on November 22!
