Ariana Grande has kept fans in the loop of the behind-the-scenes of "Wicked," the movie adaptation of the Broadway musical with the same name.
Back in November of the previous year, the "Thank U, Next" singer announced that she was cast as Glinda the Good Witch opposite of Cynthia Erivo who was cast as Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West.
Over 10 months later, she was finally spotted on the set of the highly-anticipated movie. She was seen leaving the set with her real estate broker husband Dalton Gomez.
They were both wearing matching pink masks, very much in line with Glinda the Good's image. Grande was wearing a brown jacket over a pink turtleneck and short skirt, and in her hand was a Starbucks cup. Gomez, on the other hand, was wearing a brown shirt and pants, holding a furry pink bag-which is most probably Grande's.
Fans React
The pictures are now circulating through social media, which garnered quite a reaction from the fans.
"I literally cannot even tell you how beyond excited I am to see these movies. I cried when I found out. I've been waiting for a live-action Wicked movie since I first discovered the musical when I was a kid. I've always said the special effects would be mind-blowing," a fan tweeted.
"She back to her Starbucks era, [sic]" a fan jokingly pointed out.
"OMG, she looks so beautiful! I truly cannot wait to see her be the beautiful Glinda," tweeted another fan.
Committed
The 29-yea-old has been showing her commitment to the movie as soon as there was word about auditions for the cast.
"I went into full preparation mode, while I was also shooting The Voice," she revealed. "So, I was shooting and then doing lessons every day because I just wanted to be prepared for when the call came."
"I had no idea when it was coming, but I was just like, 'I want to be ready to go in.' And now, thank God, the most incredible gift of my entire life is this role that I've adored since I [was] 10 years old and that is going to have every piece of me."
According to reports, the "Positions" singer also moved all the way to London as she continues to work on the upcoming movie.
"Ariana is renting a stunning house in one of the capital's most sought-after neighborhoods," a source revealed.
However, the source also added that the British paparazzi might have a difficult time seeing her, "but anyone who thinks they might catch a glimpse of her has no chance, as the place she has found is like a fortress."
The move to a private "fortress" was done intentionally for both her privacy and security, so the singer can "switch off" after filming.
