It was announced in November 2021 that Grande would star as Glinda in the film adaptation of the musical \"Wicked.\"

Since then, she's shared several moments from the film's set, including a photo with her \"Wicked\" co-star Cynthia Erivo, who will be portraying Elphaba in the film, and one of herself in Glinda's pink dress.

In April, Grande shared a photo of herself on set with a rainbow in the sky to mark the \"halfway\" point of filming for the highly-anticipated movie.

\"Savoring every millisecond left with my Galinda (although she'll be with me irrevocably, forever),\" she wrote in the Instagram caption at the time. \"I'm so grateful.\"

\"Wicked: Part One\" will be released on Nov. 27, 2024. The second installment is slated to be released in 2025.
