Speaking to news Yang, who plays Pfannee, revealed that whenever the director called \u201ccut,\u201d the team would come together and break into songs from classics like \u201cRent\u201d and \u201cNext to Normal\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The upcoming fantasy film features Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo in the lead roles, with Michelle Yeoh, Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, and Jeff Goldblum in key supporting roles. Yeoh takes on the character of Madame Morrible, Bailey portrays Fiyero Tigelaar, Slater plays Boq, and Goldblum stars as the Wizard.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with the media, Yang shared, \u201cCynthia needed to maintain Elphaba\u2019s aloof and reserved demeanor. So it was refreshing to watch her let loose between takes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Goldblum also shared that he and Grande would sing along to the lyrics of \u201cDirty Rotten Scoundrels\u201d during their shoots. The 72-year-old went on to reveal, \u201cWe sang it together, and then she did it again on my phone. Oh my God in heaven\u2014it was music, music, music.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alongside the cast members singing between takes, Yeoh shared that she also had to sing in the film for her character. She revealed that while she can sing, she considers herself mostly a \u201cshower singer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Oscar-winning star stated, \u201cI love singing. But normally it\u2019s in the shower, not when there are other people around,\u201d she says. But she\u2019d need to carry a tune to play Madam Morrible, so she worked with a vocal coach before heading to set. \u201cI was hitting notes that I never thought that I would try.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, \u201cWicked\u201d follows a young woman often misunderstood because of her green skin.
