The Wicked Press Tour: Every wild thing that happened

The Wicked Press Tour has come to an end and oh boy did it bring us some absolute gems. From an unfortunately labelled doll, to a baffling interview about 'holding space', all the way to people singing in the cinema, it's been one gem after another and we have EVERY detail you could ever need in one handy place, right here, on Scroll Deep

Welcome to Scroll Deep, the show that keeps up with all the latest goings on so you don't have to, because who has time to keep up with all this internet? Me, apparently. Formerly YouTuber News (RIP).

the choir singing the "holding space" quote is so funny

[pazz]

Let's take the words of the catchphrase "that's tennis" and really hold space with that.

Saw it yesterday and somebody's phone rang AND THEY ANSWERED IT right at the start of Defying Gravity. Unbelievable! While the rest of us were holding space and feeling power, they were yapping on the phone.

I also cried all the time when I used to not eat. Just oscillating between sad, irritated, and obsessive 24/7

[olive_taylors_version]

i'm really holding space with the description of "a bunch of people in their mid-thirties going to high school."

[drewberriesandcream]

the choir said “HE DIDN’T SAY I COULDN’T

[KaminHH]

I love how the Jeff Goldblume impression is just Minecraft villager noises

[MsSnek]

The green Rizzler in the back was *chef kiss*

[Oddlittlepumpkin]

Sir, you skipped the first piece of drama from the set off this movie. Ariana and Ethan Slater having an affair, breaking up his marriage all the while his ex was at home with a newborn.

Thank you to Johnathan Bailey (and Jeff Goldblum too) for making this promotional tour a lot more bearable! Also, to answer your question at 7:09 Ben: yes, I _do_ hear the people sing, but for some reason they’re only singing songs of angry men and I really wish they’d sing at least a couple songs of joyous women or perhaps content children for a change as one does tend to get a bit bored.

I loved the reference to Adele Dazeem, and appreciated that dat boi showed up in his Elphaba hat. I enjoy feeling included with classic memes that I experienced first-hand

[RogueDawson]

1:50 Hahaha, Ariana looks so scared and confused 😂

[TheScottTubes]

Every interview I've seen so far has confirmed that Cynthia Erivo is the modern day Marlon Brando. Just completely off her rocker. The poster thing, reacting to "holding space" as though she wrote Defying Gravity. All top tier Brando style lunacy. I'm loving it

[sallyparker]

My theory is that they’re trying SO hard to not be like Blake Lively 😅

[TheOneAndOnlyLobster]

I’m really holding space for the song of angry men actually rn

[RealBradMiller]

4:59 😂😂😂😂Okay, the choir part gave me a hearty chuckle. Thanks for that.

[TheTomster]

I’ve seen it. Really holding space with it.

[Penelope]

5:53 thanks Ben for summing up my feelings on this so perfectly

[pillbugm]

I like the idea of sing along showings. That way everyone gets what they want.

But yeah, people on their phones in the cinema? That's not tennis.

My 3 year old granddaughter spent the entire film dancing in the aisle she had a wonderful time!
