The highly anticipated 'Wicked' movie is just the latest chapter in the musical's epic journey from book to stage to screen.

  • The original 'Wicked' stage musical was inspired by the 1995 novel of the same name, written by Gregory Maguire - a fresh spin on the classic Wizard of Oz story.
  • According to insiders, the upcoming film will stray from the musical and aim to be more faithful to Maguire's original vision, potentially shaking up long-time fans' expectations.
