We officially have our Boq! So happy for Ethan. He nailed it in the SpongeBob musical and the Assassins revival, no doubt he’ll nail this too.

Yay! He's so great. Perfect casting.

Most likely, though I am not sure how smart this decision is as it is the same day a major Disney animation release is scheduled with it quite possibly being Frozen 3.

Think it would be a bit too soon for Frozen 3 considering it was only announced last month, Disney have bookmarked late November until 2026 so I imagine either 2025 or 2026 will be Frozen 3. Disney animation have also been in a flop era recently so not sure Wicked would see them as a threat currently.

It's next year.

Glad it moved away from Avatar. So excited

[Gerardo]

I knew this was gonna happen as as I saw The Way of Water smashing 

tbh it’d be better if it came out in the first week of November, or maybe even in Hallloween, but this is still great
