Here's your invitation to a Wicked celebration.
Stars like Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Jonathan Bailey, Bowen Yang, Michelle Yeoh, Jeff Goldblum and Ethan Slater are about to shine on the red carpet at the Los Angeles premiere of their film Nov. 9.
In fact, Frankie Grande, influencer Bella Poarch and Dylan Mulvaney were among the first to arrive at the star-studded event, held at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion.
Grande, who portrays Glinda in the Jon M. Chu-directed film, has kept the character close to her heart as she’s promoted the film clad in light pink to honor the Good Witch. After all, her dream of reaching Oz began at an early age.
"I thought that at 10 years old," she told the New York Times in an interview published Nov. 6. "I started on Broadway, and I am so thankful for the ways in which my career took pivots and pop became my main thing, but I also think my soul deeply misses musical theater and comedy."
"So as soon as I got murmurs of the fact that it could possibly be turning into a film," the Nickelodeon alum continued, "all I wanted was a chance to audition."

"I have so much to prove," the 31-year-old explained, "and I threw myself at it in every way that I could."
As did Erivo, who plays Elphaba.
In fact, "I got told off by my best friend," she recalled to the NYT. "We were shooting in London and he was like, 'I have not seen you. You have been here for six months!' It really was 'head down, let’s do this only.'”
And now that the work is done, it's time for audiences to see the magic they've created.
