It sounds like Ariana Grande’s experience filming the upcoming “Wicked” movie was rather wonderful. “It was just the most extraordinary, transformative and beautiful experience I’ve ever had in my life,” Grande said on Vogue’s Met Gala red carpet on Monday. “I love the project so much more now than I ever did, and I’ve loved it since I was 10 years old.” Grande is portraying Glinda in the hotly anticipated film alongside actor Cynthia Erivo’s Elphaba. They join an impressive legacy of actors who’ve portrayed the roles including Idina Menzel, Michelle Williams and Kristin Chenoweth. She added that working with Erivo “and getting to know and love her has changed my life as well.” Grande described the experience as “happy and really, really special” and teased that viewers will “see a little something very soon.” A first-look trailer was released in February during the Super Bowl.
“Seinfeld” premiered 35 years ago on NBC, becoming one of the most popular sitcoms ever and making Jerry Seinfeld and creator Larry David insanely rich. In promoting his directing debut “Unfrosted,” Seinfeld has lamented the current state of TV comedy, in a way that identifies some modern challenges while ignoring the complexity of how times have changed.
