Cynthia Erivo shares filming challenges on Wicked including skipping bathroom breaks

Cynthia Erivo shared her experience filming "Wicked," revealing she often skipped bathroom breaks during long shooting days. She explained that changing out of her costume and harnesses took too much time, leading her to avoid the restroom altogether. Erivo, who plays Elphaba, described the challenges of wearing multiple harnesses for stunts. She noted that once in the harness, it was easier to stay in it than to go through the lengthy process of getting ready again. "Wicked" also features Ariana Grande and Jonathan Bailey. The film, directed by Jon M. Chu, will be released in two parts, with the first part debuting in theaters on November 22, 2024.
