Okay, so this movie is an adaption of the musical Wicked, which was an adaption of the book Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, which was sort of a reimagining of Wizard of Oz, incorporating stuff from both the 1939 movie, and the 1900 book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, which the movie was based on, while putting it in the Wicked Witch's perspective and recontextualizing it, showing that the Wicked Witch (now called Elphaba (named after the initials of the writer of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, L. Frank Baum). I hope that clears things up, rather than confusing things even more, but I was trying to be more accurate than just saying "it's a prequel," or "it's a reimagining," both of which are technically true but don't tell the whole story of the background of what Wicked is.
@@davisstudios116 If I were to guess, I would think it would be kind of a mix, but closer to the musical format. I doubt it will be as campy as the 1939 Wizard of Oz movie, but it's not going to be a totally realistic movie either.
Actually, not because of Ari cast as the good witch but because you have to be mindful that she was a actress before she focus on her career in music full time. Also, yes, 'Wicked' is a prequel to 'The Wizard Of Oz' which focuses on the two witches and how they came to be the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good. But, however, it's telling the "true story" of the Wicked Witch of the West, Elphaba, and her school days when she first befriended popular girl, G(a)linda.💚💗🧹🧙♀️🧙🏾♀️

Oh wow I see thanks for the breakdown! Do you think this will still follow a musical format or are they taking a more direct and serious tone?

It’s a prequel, but also shows the events of the wizard of oz from another perspective.
Do you think they will remake the wizard of oz and connect it to this film?
@@davisstudios116 dosen't need to
@davisstudios116 no there's going to be 2 wicked movies as because of defying gravity song they need to split it into 2 parts
