Ariana Grande has revealed she wants to focus more on musical theater after years of working as a pop musician. The soloist expressed her desire after starring in the musical film Wicked. She even predicts that she will be working on more musical theater projects than pop music over the next decade.
"I will always make music, I will always perform. I will always do pop stuff, I promise," Ariana Grande said, as reported by People on Wednesday November 6, 2024. "But I think doing all of that at the pace that I've been doing it for the last 10 years is not something that I see in the next 10 years," she continued.
The Eternal Sunshine singer then expressed her feelings after getting involved in the musical world thanks to the film Wicked. She admitted that she felt connected to himself when exploring a career in the entertainment industry.
Because, the musician actually pursued his career in the world of musical theater by joining Broadway so that he could connect with other roles on the stage. She also opened up the opportunity to appear in various shows as long as the role and story fit Grande's wishes.
Ariana Grande plays in the film Wicked as one of the main characters, namely Glinda the Good Witch. She also acts with Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba Thropp or Wicked Witch of the West. Wicked is a feature film project directed by Jon M. Chu with a screenplay by Winnie Holzman and Stephen Schwartz.
The project was later split into two parts. The film Wicked is an adaptation of the musical stage play Wicked, which was adapted from the novel Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West (1995) by Gregory Maguire.
On the other hand, the character of Wicked is adapted from the legendary novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum. The novel was previously adapted into a film project by MGM in 1939. In addition to Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, the film also stars Michelle Yeoh, Jonathan Bailey, Bowen Yang, Jeff Goldblum, and Ethan Slater.
