Oscar-Nominated Designer Paul Tazewell Unveils First Looks for ‘Wicked’ Film Adaptation



Renowned costume designer Paul Tazewell has unveiled the first mesmerizing glimpses of the highly anticipated film adaptation of Wicked, the beloved Broadway musical. 


The reveal, made exclusively on Vanity Fair's Instagram this morning, offers a tantalizing preview of the fantastical world brought to life by Tazewell's visionary designs.


Starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande as Elphaba and Glinda, respectively, Wicked promises to captivate audiences with its spellbinding visuals and immersive storytelling. Directed by Jon M. Chu, the film also stars Michelle Yeoh, Jeff Goldblum, Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Bowen Yang, and Marissa Bode.

Drawing on his unparalleled creativity and expertise, Tazewell has crafted a stunning array of costumes that breathe new life into the iconic characters of the Land of Oz. From the ethereal elegance of Glinda the Good Witch to the dark allure of the Wicked Witch of the West, each ensemble reflects Tazewell's meticulous attention to detail and boundless imagination.


Wicked is scheduled to hit theaters on November 27, 2024, with a highly anticipated sequel, Wicked Part Two, slated for release on November 26, 2025.
