Wicked is already capturing the hearts of many fantasy movie lovers. Recently, the actress portraying Madame Morrible in this highly anticipated film revealed insights about her role and the improvisation she added to it.

She shared her thoughts during the Los Angeles premiere of “Wicked,” standing alongside Broadway star Sheryl Lee Ralph, who played the same character in the stage musical. 

“We took a little bit of liberty with Madame Morrible for the movie,” the actress from Everything Everywhere All at Once stated while talking to Lee Ralph in front of Deadline. 

Yeoh then asked the Broadway star to tell her what she would think of Madame Morrible, whom the Memoirs Of A Geisha actress played, before the screening. 

Replying to the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon actress Sheryl Lee Ralph stated that when playing a character on stage, “on Broadway, they take no liberties with the script.”

She added that nothing has changed but only what the audience imagines. 

Talking about the character of Madame Morrible, the actress from Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit stated that she happens to be someone who notices talent and says, “Many years I have waited, for a gift like yours to appear…”

Yeoh then discussed the massive difference between playing the character on screen and stage, stating that “the amazing DP, Alice Brooks, in Wicked captures all the nuances.”

Actress Jacqueline Fernandez, gearing up for her role in Housefull 5 alongside Akshay Kumar, often finds herself in the spotlight beyond her film career. She was allegedly dating conman, Sukesh Chandrashekhar. Now, he shared plans to invest a whopping $135 million in Hollywood projects for his ‘lady love’ Jacqueline. He even credited the idea to a tip he picked up from his ‘big bro’, Donald Trump. 

According to a Hindustan Times report, Sukesh Chandrashekhar extended his congratulations to Republican President-elect Trump on his victory over Kamala Harris in the recent US election. 

In a handwritten note, he reminisced about their last meeting nearly a decade ago, recalling Trump’s advice on viewing the world. He expressed his gratitude for Trump’s enduring encouragement and support, noting how those words still resonate with him today.

He wrote, “Those words ring loud in my ears once again today, love you Bro for always motivating me and not judging me during our meets.”

In his letter, Sukesh also announced plans for his company, LS Holdings and LS Gaming LLC, to invest $500 million (₹4200 crore) in the US over the coming two years. Notably, he referenced his alleged relationship with actress Jacqueline Fernandez, mentioning advice he claimed to have received from Trump about honoring and cherishing one’s partner. 

Sukesh shared that LS Holdings is acquiring a $135 million stake in a prominent Los Angeles studio, dedicated to producing films and shows. He added, “I have finalized this buy, for my lady love Jacqueline just like the advice you gave me, to ‘make your women feel special’.”

The Housefull 5 actress had appealed to a Delhi court for protection from alleged harassment by conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar and petitioned the Delhi High Court to dismiss the case against her. She argued she was unknowingly entangled in Sukesh’s elaborate scheme. 

Meanwhile, the Delhi Police have accused Sukesh of defrauding Aditi Singh, wife of ex-Ranbaxy promoter Shivinder Mohan Singh, of Rs 200 crore, claiming he made deceptive promises about securing bail for Singh’s jailed husband. 

Jacqueline has been linked to the investigation, and suspicions have been raised of her involvement in laundering the funds obtained through Sukesh’s alleged scam.
