It's taken from AMC.

It will be 2 hour 40 minutes, and that's only Part 1.

FYI the broadway musicals original full duration were 2 hours and 45 minutes, including a 15-minute intermission. So this bloated duration on the movie is worrying, cos this might means the movie will add extra scenes that is not coming from the source material. :gum:

Still questioning why it needed 2 parts to begin with. Very puzzling. :bradley:

1. money

2. based on this, if they did both acts in one movie it would be like 4 hours and they would have to cut so much(because nobody wants to watch a 4 hour movie unless its oppenheimer)  and therefore make it super sloppy and rushed. I hope that both parts are polished and worth the wait.

If they’re going by the books instead of the musical, there is a LOT of source material.

One of the reasons why I stopped going to the movies is because they’re way too long because they add a 20 minute boring scene or something…

What happened to 90 minute movies???? :selena:

 

Crazy how I hope for songs to be longer now and they’re getting shorter while movies are getting longer :selena:

I think they have to do a lot of world building and explaining to the mass audience what is happening, but wow is it very long for a part 1.

Seems very long, let's see how much the first one covers, I wish they wouldn't release the other half a year after.

It will be based on broadway musicals than the book.

Which is the main issue here. It doesn't need 4 hours duration part into 2 movies when the play is less than that. What would they add to fill those bloated time slots?

inb4 the second part is actually soft reboot of wizard of oz than the actual 2nd part of Wicked :gum:

Fantastic news. I love the show dearly but it's very rushed and I hope we get more material from the novel in the film.
