Witchy gays, theater gays, witchy theater gays, collect spherical, for eventually we now have a full size Depraved trailer to obsess over for the following just-under-200 days till half one of many on-screen Depraved adaptation hits theaters. (Each time I bear in mind it’s a two-part movie, I do wish to scream????? However, alas.) GAY WICKED TRAILER THOUGHTS, LET’S GO.
“Are folks born depraved or have they got wickedness thrust upon them?” Ariana Grande’s Glinda muses in voiceover in the beginning of the trailer. I’ve watched the trailer half a dozen instances already, and I every time, I’m gobsmacked at simply how a lot Ari has remodeled…all the things about herself for this position???? And, after all, Cynthia Erivo’s entrance as Elphaba is appropriately DRAMA. The press-clacking heels! The hair seize! The infinity glasses! And from the very begin of the Glinda/Elphaba meet-cute, it’s clear Erivo and Grande have gotten chemistry, which is actually a very powerful factor to make a display screen adaptation of this musical work. I don’t care about how good or actual the particular results, the magic, the flying look — give me simmering, scorching chemistry between the leads! And all three minutes and 33 seconds of this trailer, fortunately, are certainly giving that. (For what it’s price, the consequences don’t look dangerous — or too over-the-top, which is what I used to be fearful about — both.)
We watch as Glinda and Elphaba and Jonathan Bailey’s Fiyero start their journeys at Shiz College, the place Elphaba and Glinda are thrust collectively as roommates regardless of having little or no in frequent. And, properly, homosexual followers of the musical will inform you that this roommate situation is brimming with homoerotic subtext and pressure. Or, at the least, this homosexual fan of the musical will inform you that, maybe scream it to you drunkenly at a bar in Chicago in 2015 when she was newly out!!!!! Oh and Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible, headmistress of Shiz? Beautiful.
We get an early style of Glinda’s tune “In style,” and Ari’s voice is certainly made for this position. I’m at all times torn about trailers for film musicals, as a result of I crave extra music in them but additionally don’t need a few of the larger vocal moments to be spoiled forward of time. I do know sure tune moments within the movie will give me chills, possibly even make me tear up, as a result of the Depraved music has been an essential a part of my little homosexual life for a lot of it. I’m stunned we get samples from two of the most effective identified — and most karaoke’d, in my expertise — tracks: “In style” and “Defying Gravity.” Nevertheless it additionally is smart: These are in all probability the songs even simply informal viewers who aren’t as accustomed to the unique musical would know, making them a universally engaging teaser within the trailer.
Anyway! BOWEN YANG IS HERE!
I’m gonna want Warby Parker to launch a Depraved eyewear line, stat.
As Elphaba’s powers develop, so does the stress between her and Glinda. Glinda lends Elphaba her grandmother’s dusty previous witch hat, and when Elphaba dons it at a college operate, everybody laughs at and makes enjoyable of her. Sporting a bizarre hat to the operate after which everybody makes enjoyable of you? Even when we put apart the roommate bullying of all of it, THIS IS A PROTOTYPICAL QUEER EXPERIENCE!!! After which Elphaba makes it much more queer by deciding to embrace the factor she’s ridiculed for, donning the hat for the rest of the trailer. Making an adjunct your persona? That’s queer tradition and couture.
The trailer hits a variety of the massive emotional beats of Elphaba and Glinda’s enemies-to-friend-to-enemies arc, and once more, the chemistry between Erivo and Grande is blessedly defying gravity. I can’t wait to see them sing collectively, particularly on certainly one of my private favourite songs, one that actually drives residence a few of the present’s queer subtext: “What Is This Feeling?”
Jeff Golblum’s Wizard additionally seems within the trailer, kicking up the central battle of the story, whereby Elphaba is demonized and mainly made an enemy of the state within the title of propaganda and social management. I can’t inform but from the trailer, however I hope a few of the sociopolitical underpinnings of the story are executed properly within the movie!
However this long-anticipated trailer does sufficiently drum up extra pleasure for the movie, even when I discover it completely unforgivable that that is only a half one. Ari and Cynthia are stars individually and collectively!
Now, time to place the unique Broadway solid recording on 🔁.

I don’t care about how good or actual the particular results, the magic, the flying look — give me simmering, scorching chemistry between the leads! And all three minutes and 33 seconds of this trailer, fortunately, are certainly giving that. (For what it’s price, the consequences don’t look dangerous — or too over-the-top, which is what I used to be fearful about — both.)
We watch as Glinda and Elphaba and Jonathan Bailey’s Fiyero start their journeys at Shiz College, the place Elphaba and Glinda are thrust collectively as roommates regardless of having little or no in frequent. And, properly, homosexual followers of the musical will inform you that this roommate situation is brimming with homoerotic subtext and pressure. Or, at the least, this homosexual fan of the musical will inform you that, maybe scream it to you drunkenly at a bar in Chicago in 2015 when she was newly out!!!!! Oh and Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible, headmistress of Shiz? Beautiful.
We get an early style of Glinda’s tune “In style,” and Ari’s voice is certainly made for this position. I’m at all times torn about trailers for film musicals, as a result of I crave extra music in them but additionally don’t need a few of the larger vocal moments to be spoiled forward of time. I do know sure tune moments within the movie will give me chills, possibly even make me tear up, as a result of the Depraved music has been an essential a part of my little homosexual life for a lot of it. I’m stunned we get samples from two of the most effective identified — and most karaoke’d, in my expertise — tracks: “In style” and “Defying Gravity.” Nevertheless it additionally is smart: These are in all probability the songs even simply informal viewers who aren’t as accustomed to the unique musical would know, making them a universally engaging teaser within the trailer.
Anyway! BOWEN YANG IS HERE!
I’m gonna want Warby Parker to launch a Depraved eyewear line, stat.
As Elphaba’s powers develop, so does the stress between her and Glinda. Glinda lends Elphaba her grandmother’s dusty previous witch hat, and when Elphaba dons it at a college operate, everybody laughs at and makes enjoyable of her. Sporting a bizarre hat to the operate after which everybody makes enjoyable of you? Even when we put apart the roommate bullying of all of it, THIS IS A PROTOTYPICAL QUEER EXPERIENCE!!! After which Elphaba makes it much more queer by deciding to embrace the factor she’s ridiculed for, donning the hat for the rest of the trailer. Making an adjunct your persona? That’s queer tradition and couture.
The trailer hits a variety of the massive emotional beats of Elphaba and Glinda’s enemies-to-friend-to-enemies arc, and once more, the chemistry between Erivo and Grande is blessedly defying gravity. I can’t wait to see them sing collectively, particularly on certainly one of my private favourite songs, one that actually drives residence a few of the present’s queer subtext: “What Is This Feeling?”
Jeff Golblum’s Wizard additionally seems within the trailer, kicking up the central battle of the story, whereby Elphaba is demonized and mainly made an enemy of the state within the title of propaganda and social management. I can’t inform but from the trailer, however I hope a few of the sociopolitical underpinnings of the story are executed properly within the movie!
However this long-anticipated trailer does sufficiently drum up extra pleasure for the movie, even when I discover it completely unforgivable that that is only a half one. Ari and Cynthia are stars individually and collectively!
Now, time to place the unique Broadway solid recording on 🔁.
