  • That pink-and-green movie about the two witches subsumed social media and the box office during the last weeks of 2024. So much so it could be easy to forget that "Wicked" is, in many ways, the apotheosis of a year in which the movie musical genre returned from the celluloid grave.

The article from Yahoo Entertainment discusses the upcoming movie musicals slated for release in 2024. It highlights a revival of interest in the musical genre, with films like "Mean Girls: The Musical," which adapts the Broadway show based on the 2004 film, and "Wicked," a two-part adaptation of the beloved Broadway musical. Other anticipated releases include "The Color Purple," a new adaptation of the Broadway musical, and "Joker: Folie à Deux," which will incorporate musical elements into its narrative. The article also mentions "Spellbound," an animated musical from Skydance Animation, and "The Bride," a musical horror film directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal. These films are expected to bring a mix of nostalgia, fresh takes on classic stories, and innovative storytelling to the screen, showcasing the versatility and enduring appeal of the musical format in cinema.
