Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande celebrated the pending release of Wicked: For Good by attending the New York City premiere of the movie musical on Monday.
Erivo and Grande have been all over the world promoting the film in the past couple of weeks, including the Asia-Pacific premiere last Thursday in Singapore, where an Australian man allegedly jumped a barricade at the film’s yellow carpet premiere to accost Grande.
Then on Sunday night, Erivo, Grande and director Jon M. Chu were in Los Angeles to celebrate the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences’ 16th Governors Awards, where Tom Cruise, Debbie Allen, Wynn Thomas and Dolly Parton were celebrated with Honorary Oscars.
The trio, along with other Wicked: For Good talent, then flew to New York City for the premiere on Monday evening at the David Geffen Hall. Below are photos of some of the stars at the event.
