Ariana Grande started training and preparing for Wicked when she heard MURMERS of the possibility of a movie being made pre-pandemic She didn't even wait to hear when/ if auditions would happen She already became THAT GIRL for the role. No plan B, she knew she was going to make it happen. Y'all have a goal, and wait for god knows what to line up so you can finally take a step instead of making targeted moves to MAKE IT happen
