Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande take the lead in the first look Super Bowl teaser for the live action version of Wicked, an adaptation of the legendary stage musical that fans have been waiting for for a long time.

The 60-second teaser shows Elphaba (Erivo) coming face-to-face with Glinda (Grande) in Oz, as well as glimpses of Shiz University's Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh), handsome Prince Fiyero (Jonathan Bailey), and Jeff Goldblum as the great and powerful Wizard of Oz himself.

Wicked was one of a handful of big movies teased during the big game on Sunday.

Wicked hits theaters this Thanksgiving.
