When he literally said in the interview that he didn't want Ariana the "popstar" to be his Glinda and yet the media is still using that to milk views. It's sad.
What a beautiful interview. Jon M. Chu has directed all of my favourite movies and I didn't even know. He's definitely my favourite director! I can't WAIT to see Wicked! It comes out the week of my birthday!
6:20 That line has traumatized so many people most especially Asians that I could understand why Constance could only power through 3 takes for the scene at max. Tears immediately went out of my eyes just watching the clip alone. Gut wrenching
That Constance could only get through a few takes of "You'll never be enough" hits so much harder knowing more about what she was going through at the time.
Honestly his films always feel so rich in color and in feeling. To quote Harry styles “it feels like a movie.” One of the few directors who makes me feel like a kid again.
Underrated moment of the video: finding out Miley’s old video of her and her crew dancing to 4 Minutes was a reply to the step up cast 😂 I used to LOVE that video as a kid!
i’ve never read the Wicked book, or watched the Wizard of Oz movie, and I never seen a play of either one for that matter, but I’m so excited to see this movie that he directed!!
ok even though you don't HAVE to watch Wizard of Oz, it's better if you do (or at least become familiar with the story) so that you can understand a lot of the references. It also makes it more enjoyable to watch, seeing such a different depiction of the story. Wicked is 50 times better than Wizard of Oz btw. The story is genius. Wizard of Oz is just whimsical fun
This guy is the one that directed the "Jem and the Holograms" movie, what a flop! I can't believe they gave him one of the most important musicals in history.
He got it because he helmed Crazy Rich Asians in its extravagance is a musical without being written as a musical and was financially very successful. And the Heights which is a straight-up musical. They both made money. So will both chapters of Wicked.
omg yall are hopeless if you don't know what a woman with no makeup looks like. that isn't it. she's just not all baked, contoured, and wearing eye shadow, but it's clear she's got foundation, eyeliner, blush and lipstick on
