Ariana’s on-set pictures come after her co-star Cynthia Erivo – who plays the future Wicked Witch of the West, Elphaba – was also spotted in all-green makeup as she filmed a outdoor scene.
Ariana’s outfit featured a torso covered in swirls of lavender, along with purple and light blue.
The 29-year-old pop superstar and occasional actress was seen smiling happily with 35-year-old British actor Jonathan Bailey.
This also appears to be the first time Bailey has filmed an adaptation of the popular stage musical, a prequel to The Wizard Of Oz based on the novel by Gregory Maguire.
Ariana’s dress also had fibers mixed in to make it sparkle in the light. Her dress featured ruffled shoulder embellishments that stood up in the air, as well as sheer sleeves with added sequins.
The dress has a skirt made of flowing tulle with lots of sequins. Ariana also completed her outfit with a silver tiara, which consisted of swirling flowers that delicately sat atop her long blonde hair, pulled back and cascading down her shoulders.
Jonathan looked like a prince in a dark blue uniform with gold accents and tasseled epaulets, with a second coat in the same color, draped over one shoulder. Paired with matching green pants were tall black boots, and her dark hair was parted.
Jeff Goldblum, Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh, Saturday Night Live star Bowen Yang, Adam James, Keala Settle and Bronwyn James are also in the cast.
Last month, Goldblum revealed that he had been cast in the film during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. “I just starred in the movie Wicked. I shouldn’t talk about that. But you should see our witches, Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, they are both very good,” he said.
He and Ariana seemed to get along really well, both couldn’t stop beaming and chatting to each other between takes.
The Thank U, Next singer was laughing so hard that she leaned in front of and held Jonathan’s hand, before he leaned forward to whisper something in her ear.
Ariana is one of the main actors of Wicked. She played Glinda, known as the Good Witch of the North, in the classic 1939 film, adapted from L. Frank Baum’s famous book.
Jonathan appears as Fiyero Tigelaar, who is engaged to Glinda in the play and film Wicked, although his true love for Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) pulls him away from her. He then became the character known as the Scarecrow.
He rose to prominence with his role in the popular crime drama Broadchurch. His most recent leading role was Anthony, a 9th Viscount Bridgerton in the Netflix romance film of the same name.
Fans of the hit Broadway musical will have to wait to see the full story told through film, as Wicked will be split into two parts.
The first film is currently set to hit theaters on November 27, 2024, with the second chapter coming in December next year.
The film was instantly famous after its release in 2003, and productions around the world have followed suit. But it wasn’t until 2012 that a Wicked movie was exploited.
The onset of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic has once again slowed production in filming.
Original Broadway star Kristin Chenoweth spoke of how proud Ariana was for taking on the role of Glinda.
The actress revealed the pop star is “really scared” at the idea of taking on the role in the upcoming two-part film adaptation.
The popularity of stage musicals would make a Wicked adaptation a no-brainer, but it has been strangely delayed for years. Another objective reason is the onset of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, which once again slowed down the production process with delays in filming.
