"Wicked: For Good" and its leading ladies may be coming to the end of the (yellow brick) road. This year, "Wicked: For Good" stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande were snubbed in the lead and supporting actress categories, respectively. Supporting actress contenders were Elle Fanning ("Sentimental Value"), Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas ("Sentimental Value"), Amy Madigan ("Weapons"), Wunmi Mosaku ("Sinners") and Teyana Taylor ("One Battle After Another"). "Wicked" and "Wicked: For Good" also spurred on possibly the most enthusiastic theater-going wave since "Barbenheimer," with some viewers showing up in full costume. Universal Pictures has even suggested it is keeping an open mind about follow-up projects, though nothing has been confirmed yet.
