‘Wicked’ Cast Heading to Sydney for Australian Premiere!

Universal Pictures Australia is tickled pink (and green) to announce the esteemed cast of Wicked will be heading to Sydney this November to unveil to Australian audiences – the first in the world – the cinematic event of the year at the iconic State Theatre in Sydney.

On November 3, Sydney will be the first stop on the global Journey Through Oz premiere tour—a series of themed premieres across five international cities offering audiences an unparalleled experience of the film’s wondrous, breathtaking world.

Wicked stars Emmy, Grammy and Tony winning artist and Academy Award® nominee Cynthia Erivo (Elphaba) and Grammy-winning multi-platinum recording artist and global superstar Ariana Grande (Glinda) who will be joined by their co-stars Jeff Goldblum, Jonathan Bailey, Marissa Bode, Ethan Slater and the film’s visionary director Jon M. Chu at the Australian premiere—a whimsical tribute to Munchkinland, the first wonderous realm in the world of Wicked. The Australian Premiere of Wicked is presented in partnership with American Express.

The cast will be completing press in Sydney between 3rd – 5th November.

After the land of Oz experiences the magic of Wicked, the three continent global extravaganza will continue when the cast head to the Los Angeles premiere, reimagined as the ornate Shiz University, then Mexico City, which will unveil the mystical Enchanted Forest, a special screening at the renowned Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York City featuring a re-creation of the film’s glamorous Ozdust Ballroom, and finally, the London premiere where the shimmering Emerald City will be showcased in all its glory.

Australian audiences can attend the first screenings of Wicked at limited previews on November 20, celebrating a “Wicked Wednesday” in cinemas nationwide.  Tickets to these exclusive events go on sale today, Friday October 11, along with tickets to the film’s season. Citizens of Oz are all invited to gather their best friends, sisters, boyfriends, young and old to experience the magical spectacle on the big screen.

Fans can follow The Journey Through Oz on Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube and join the global conversation using #WickedMovie.

Wicked, the first chapter of a two-part cultural celebration, will be released in Australian cinemas 21st November 2024.
