Ariana Grande and Paul Mescal Go Full ‘Glicked’ as They Dish on Singing, Fight Scenes and That ‘Insufferable’ Press Tour
Ariana Grande and Paul Mescal go all in on "Glicked," from auditioning to fight scenes and costumes, in a discussion for Variety's "Actors on Actors."
The Grammy-winning pop singer — and, thanks to her film “Wicked,” newly minted movie star — shows up at our shoot hours early, ready to make friends as she meanders around the coffee station with her beagle-Chihuahua mix, Toulouse, in her arms. Jon M. Chu’s adaptation of the smash Broadway musical about goings-on in the land of Oz has launched Grande, with her co-star Cynthia Erivo (playing Elphaba, the future Wicked Witch of the West), into the heart of Oscar season. “Wicked” and “Gladiator II” came out on the same day, in a showdown that recalled “Barbenheimer.” This time, too, the irresistible pink film beat out the R-rated drama, but both movies also boosted each other, and helped rescue the winter box office.
