Cast-A-Role: A Movie Podcast

Episode 50 - Wicked Movie Review, Musical Masterpiece or A Bum Note?


Listen Later

It’s Tuesday, so you know what that means — Cast-A-Role is back!

This week, Jim turns the tables on Sam and Nick and forces them to watch one of his all-time favourite films. And with the release of Wicked: For Good on the horizon, there’s no better time to head back down the Yellow Brick Road and revisit the iconic musical Wicked. Expect big opinions, deep-dive discussions, and more than a few surprises.

Before the Wicked fun begins, the guys reveal their brand-new Patreon-exclusive series, “Side Dish,” and catch up on everything they’ve been watching — from a trip to the cinema to some heavy surfing through Netflix and Amazon Prime.

Will this episode be all singing and dancing?

Or will the Cast-A-Role trio stir up some controversial opinions along the way?

Tune in as we discuss:

  • Ariana Grande’s standout performance

  • Cynthia Erivo’s immaculate vocals

  • What to expect from the upcoming Wicked sequel

  • Whether Wicked truly has some of the greatest musical numbers ever

  • And of course… the all-important meatball ratings

    As always, the episode wraps with a new round of Audio Aperitif, where Sam serves up musical tidbits for Jim and Nick to guess — plus a special announcement: a double-bill celebration for our 2-year anniversary.

    Other Films Discussed:

    • Back to the Future (40th Anniversary release)

    • Caught Stealing

    • Naked Gun

    • Robin Hood

      Perfect for fans of movie podcasts, musical theatre, Wicked analysis, and the chaotic energy of three friends arguing passionately about film.
