KIDMAN: I was just thrilled for you. When I saw WICKED with my girls, we actually booked out the whole row here in Nashville and it was just crazy. People were cheering, and it was just really, really fun. So that was exciting, right? For that to take off. You didn’t expect that?

GRANDE: It was very exciting. I don’t think there’s any way to prepare yourself mentally for that kind of thing. Of course we loved it and I’ve always been such a huge fan of the show. But while making it, I just had my blinders on and I was too scared to think about what might be on the other side. I just wanted to pay attention to Glinda as much as I could.

GRANDE: What a privilege to work with [director] Jon [M.] Chu, who just trusted us. We would just play and play and ultimately had no idea what the edit would end up being.

KIDMAN: That’s fascinating.

GRANDE: It was so fun and inspiring, and also almost jealous-making, because it’s like, “Oh, you could try all these choices on Broadway if you’re doing eight shows a week. But in the movie, you only get to live with one version forever.
