Ariana Grande is dancing through life and into her next movie role.
Before audiences get to see her reprise her Oscar-nominated character as Glinda in “Wicked: For Good”, it was confirmed that she will be starring in an animated adaptation of the beloved Dr. Seuss children’s book, “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!”.
On Instagram, July 15th, Ariana was pictured in a voice recording studio with her script binder and her costar Josh Gad. She also tagged Wicked director Jon M. Chu, who will be working alongside co-director Jill Culton on the upcoming film.
Warner Bros. announced on their platform (previously Twitter) that the original tunes from award-winning composers Benj Pasek and Justin Paul will indeed be included in the upcoming animated film, scheduled for release in 2028. These talented individuals are renowned for penning the music for movies like ‘La La Land’ and ‘The Greatest Showman’, having won multiple Emmys, Grammys, Oscars, and Tonys – a unique achievement often referred to as an EGOT.
As a lifestyle expert, allow me to share some exciting news that I’ve recently confirmed: Weeks before the delightful announcement by Ariana, TopMob News uncovered that her next venture post-“Wicked” will be joining the fourth installment of the beloved “Meet the Parents” series, hitting cinemas in November 2026. The talented “We Can’t Be Friends” singer is set to team up with the original stars, including the legendary Robert De Niro and the hilarious Ben Stiller, who are thrilled about Ariana’s comedic talents.
I’m absolutely smitten by her prowess, as I shared in a recent interview on June 9th. Her knack for comedy is simply unparalleled, and at this moment, words fail me when attempting to describe the film’s character she’s portraying. Let me just say, get ready for some serious laughs! She’s going to be the driving force behind our upcoming movie.
Although Ariana has achieved worldwide fame as a music icon, she’s delighted to be back at acting roles again.
She expressed during a November episode of the Las Culturistas podcast that she believes she’s fond of acting, particularly musical theater. Re-embracing the aspect of herself that initially dabbled in musical theater and reveled in comedy, brings her solace. It’s therapeutic for her to seek roles where she can utilize these aspects of her personality and mold them into characters, dialogues, voices, and songs.
To her music enthusiasts, Ariana assuredly declared, “I’ll never stop making music, performing on stage, or creating pop tunes. I give you my word with a pinky swear.
Ahead of the release of Oh, the Places You’ll Go in 2028, read on to see upcoming movie releases.
