Kristin Chenoweth was overwhelmed by the new thing Evil Film!

The actress who played Glinda in the original Broadway production Evil, attended a screening of the new film in New York City on Monday, October 28, and later shared her thoughts on Instagram. Also in attendance were Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo – who play Glinda and Elphaba in the film – as well as members of the Current Evil Broadway companies and former stars.

“Oh my God, I just saw the movie and I’m dying. I died, I'm actually dead, I'm not here,” Chenoweth, 56, gushed in the Instagram reel. “People are not going to feel good when they see this movie. He’s so good, he’s so special.”

“The story is so wonderful and Cynthia and Ariana are amazing. “The entire cast is amazing,” continued Chenoweth. “Jon Chu nailed it. I was so moved, emotional, happy and full of joy. Please look at everyone.” Evilyou will be blessed.

“You won't even believe how good it is 🫧💚🩷 I'll never be the same!!! @wickedmovie,” Chenoweth captioned her post.

“The very special night. I will cherish her forever. I love you so much,” Grande, 31, wrote in the comments section, while Erivo, 37, added, “The Queen Mother has spoken 🩷💚.”

Those in attendance at the screening included the film's director Jon M. Chu, Chenoweth's husband Josh Bryant, the film's composer Stephen Schwartz, Gregory Maguire, who wrote the novel, and several others EvilThe original stars: Christopher Fitzgerald (Boq), Norbert Leo Butz (Fiyero) and his wife Michelle Federer (Nessarose).

There was also a sea of ​​former Elphabas and Glindas, including Amanda Jane Cooper, Alli Mauzey, Carrie St. Louis, Brittney Johnson, McKenzie Kurtz, Ginna Claire Mason and Katie Rose Clarke, as well as the Broadway production's current stars, Mary Kate Morrissey and Alexandra Socha.

Evilwhich first premiered on Broadway in 2003, represents a twist on the familiar dichotomy of The Wizard of Oz's Glinda, the Good Witch and the Wicked Witch of the West. The story is instead about Elphaba – the Wicked Witch -, her unlikely friendship with Glinda, and the events that led to her eventually becoming the Wicked Witch of the West.

Before the screening of the new film Stage and Screen Evil The actors talked about the impact of the story, how personally meaningful the musical was and EvilThe enduring legacy is a common thread that binds them together.

The final screening of the film comes after Grande and Erivo surprised the Kardashian-Jenner family with a special early screening of the new film at Kim Kardashian's home. The “most magical pajama party” saw pink balloons and Evil Decorations and included most of the family members.
