Wicked is out here selling out all the box offices.
Wicked has officially made history, earning the biggest debut for a musical adaptation in both global and U.S. box office history. The long-awaited two-part film series, starring Ariana Grande as Glinda and Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, has dominated theaters since the release of its second installment last week.
The franchise already had massive anticipation behind it, but the back-to-back momentum of Part One and Part Two helped propel the film to a record-shattering opening weekend. Fans of the original Broadway musical and newcomers alike filled theaters worldwide, eager to see the reimagined story brought to life with blockbuster-level visuals, powerful vocals, and a cast that has been praised from the start.
With both films now out, Wicked is proving to be not just a faithful adaptation but a cultural moment—one that blends nostalgia, star power, and musical excellence into a box office triumph.
