Idina Menzel wants Wicked Movie role

Idina Menzel has revealed to Digital Spy that she would like to be a part of the movie adaptation of Wicked which is in development at Universal Pictures.

"If I could be a pat of it in some way that would be great," Menzel said. "But I already feel like I received, and continue to receive, the gifts from Wicked and how it affects audiences."

Universal Pictures chairman Adam Fogelson revealed last year that the Wicked movie was a high priority for the studio, despite not having been officially greenlit. 

Based on Gregory Maguire's novel, Wicked tells the incredible untold story of the Witches of Oz. Menzel was the first actress to play Elphaba on Broadway and in the West End.

She can currently be seen in Disney's new animated musical film Frozen and will next star in If/Then on Broadway from 5th March.
