While talking to Deadline, Jon M. Chu revealed several key aspects of the new Wicked sequel coming out in November. The director also revealed that the actor for the Cowardly Lion will blow everyone away. So far, most of the voice cast has remained hidden, but Jon M. Chu did reveal that it will be extremely shocking and exciting. The first film was extremely well-received, and it’s likely that the second film will become just as popular.
“Wait until the red carpet when the actor who gave us the Cowardly Lion’s voice steps foot on it. It’ll be wild,” Chu told Deadline.
Given the fact that the lion is completely CGI, there is a chance that literally anyone could be playing the character. So far, some of the most popular guesses have been Bill Murray, James Corden, or Matthew Broderick. Literally any of these editions would definitely provide the expectation that the director described, so there’s really no way of telling who the cowardly lion will be until the red carpet event.
In the modern celebrity-focused society of today, celebrity cameos have become extremely common within films. Therefore, it’s no surprise that Wicked: For Good would contain at least one cameo. In fact, it’s even possible that there will be multiple large cameos within the film. Aside from the already star-studded cast, the movie is set to become one of the most popular sequels of the year.
Overall, while Jon M. Chu revealed a lot about the wicked sequel, the most interesting tidbit teases the actor who could play the Cowardly Lion. The popular character is unlikely to have a large role in the film, but the fact that it is voiced by a popular actor means it has caught widespread media attention. Unfortunately, fans will have to wait until the red carpet event to find out who is playing the lion.
