'Wicked' franchise starves cast to fit in roles? Comparison shocks fans

Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo became the talk of town with their dramatic transformations for Wicked franchise.

However, fans are now digging deep to compare other cast members and find a bizarre connection amongst all the stars.

For starters, Ariana raised concerns during the last few years for loosing excessive weight and appearing frail. 

Worries for Cynthia followed as she looked miles away from what she did before joining the project.

Meanwhile, Michelle Yeoh’s old photographs went viral with admirers noting a similar change in her appearances.

An influencer shared their views, highlighting how Ethan Slater lost the spark in his eyes and is a “totally different person.”

The online community debated about the narrative with one of the Instagram users pointed out that it is “something like ozempic… since the heroine chic body type is back in fashion.”

Another netizen was of the opinion that the Hollywood stars looked “starved and exhausted” during the premiere of the new instalment.

However, a critic speculated that they might be abusing hard substance like “coke together” to keep themselves “focused.”

Is Wicked: For Good a hit?

This came after Wicked: For Good scored high at the box office after its release on November 21, 2025. It was reported that the instalment debuted with $150 million domestically and earned $164 million globally.
