Interview with Cynthia Erivo

Transcript

00:00What do you think it is about this two-part adaptation

00:04that's going to just bowl over even hardcore fans?

00:07I think there's a lot.

00:09It's very hard to pick just one thing,

00:10but I think that no one could possibly be expecting

00:15the way this music is going to fly and soar.

00:18The music is unbelievable,

00:21but I think you're gonna get to know these two women

00:24in a way that you probably haven't gotten to know them

00:26so far.

00:27We get to really connect with them

00:29and you get to know their relationships.

00:32And I think the way we've sort of gotten to grow them

00:38from movie one to movie two is really fun.

00:41It's just really cool.

00:43And the magic that you get to see,

00:44because now we're on film, so we can,

00:46the world is our oyster.

00:48So you get to learn a bit more about Elphaba.

00:50You get to learn a bit more about what she grows into,

00:52how she becomes the Wicked Witch of the West.

00:55How, what that looks like on someone like me.

01:00I think it's really cool.

01:01And our relationship, the Galinda-Elphaba relationship,

01:05it's so, we've had a great time doing it.

01:08I'll put it that way.

01:09And I hope that everybody else sees that.

01:14I can't wait for you all to see Popular, by the way.

01:17I'm just gonna say that.
