After two decades as one of the most beloved and enduring musicals on the stage, "Wicked" finally makes its long-awaited journey to the big screen promising to be a spectacular, generation-defining cinematic event this year. Catch the trailer below:

"Wicked", the untold story of the witches of Oz, stars Emmy, Grammy and Tony winning powerhouse Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, a young woman misunderstood because of her unusual green skin, who has yet to discover her true power, and Grammy-winning, multi-platinum recording artist and global superstar Ariana Grande as Glinda, a popular young woman gilded by privilege and ambition, who has yet to discover her true heart.
