I really don't understand how this is going to work on film without looking completely ridiculous, both in terms of the physical look of it and the fact that the story is really paper-thin. Onstage, it's saved by the spectacle and a bunch of cool dancing. But apparently they have an idea:

It's worth noting that Universal still has Wicked officially dated for December 20, 2019, but hasn't announced any movement toward production on that film. If that one is taking longer to get off the ground, it's possible this could take that release date
