Presenting our November cover stars, @cynthiaerivo and @arianagrande. As Elphaba and Glinda in @jonmchu’s @wickedmovie, it’s clear Erivo and Grande are epically talented—and utterly different—stars. But, as they tell VF’s @christress, it’s their off-screen bond that gives the film its beating heart. “We both really took the time to get to know the other person and where we’ve been,” Grande says. “What our little wounds are. What our little things are.” Erivo confirms this, telling VF, “We needed real connection, and we needed to lead this with love.” In their VF cover story, Erivo and Grande open up about fame, what they’ve learned from each other, and defying gravity—and expectations.
