00:00Thank you, Cynthia. Thank you, Ari.
00:03Here we go. Let's shoot.
00:05After you, madame.
00:07Let's see.
00:09Pink goes good with green.
00:11Goes well with green.
00:13So does.
00:15Wicked, to me, at its very core, is about friendship.
00:20Aah!
00:22What are you staring at?
00:24Do I have something in my teeth?
00:26And it starts with a really fun look at how these two young women,
00:31who are so different from each other,
00:33are forced to be roommates and don't get along at all.
00:36Oh, I saved you some space, by the way.
00:38Do you really think this is fair?
00:40I do not. I was promised a private suite.
00:43But thanks for asking.
00:45It's, like, cool. You're a...
00:47And you're this, and I'm this.
00:49You get to see us at our worst.
00:51It seems the artichoke is steamed.
00:54And so we have to learn about each other to get to know each other.
00:58And how hard change can be, how complicated people really are.
01:03She doesn't give a twink when anyone thinks.
01:05Of course she doesn't. She just pretends not to.
01:09These two very different women just fall completely in love with each other.
01:13And that is mirrored experience of what happened with Cynthia and I.
01:17We just sort of, I get, I got chills.
01:19We just sort of, I get, I got chills.
01:21We both just, like, found each other, I guess.
01:25Oh, hello.
01:30We just got each other immediately.
01:32Taz, Taz. Taz, Taz.
01:35There's a wild sort of soul connection between the two of them.
01:40There's such a complementing chemistry.
01:43But they're so different.
01:45Say something. Say something.
01:48Say something.
01:53Their friendship is going to bring a humanity to this film
01:57that they both deeply personally understand.
01:59It's understanding that those who are different are just different
02:03and that is really special.
02:05I'm coming.
02:09My favorite thing about Wicked is that we can all identify pieces of ourselves
02:14within both Elphaba and Galinda.
02:16You can do this.
02:17You can do anything.
02:20I know.
02:21I think that we are all deserving of friendship and kindness and love
02:26no matter who we are.
02:27Yeah!
02:28And this film celebrates that.
02:31You're gonna miss me so much.
02:33Come with me.
02:35Think of what we could do.
02:37Together.
