a PR image for the new Wicked film, referencing the rebranding of the London Borough of Greenwich to 'Greenwitch' as promotion. The image features a mystical forest fading from blue, through green, to red in the background. In the foreground, there are three groups of individuals. in the centre are the 'witch' (green-faced with a black traditional witch's robe) facing the fairy godmother, in a pink princess dress. The witch is played by Cynthia Erivo and the Godmother by Ariane Grande. to the left, the Wizard of Oz (Jeff Goldblum) stands, looking contemplative, in a green suit. Next to him is Madam Horrible (Michelle Yeoh) in a long purple dress, mid-spell. There is a flying monkey on a tree branch above their heads. To the right of the main cast is Fiero (Jonathan Bailey) in a waist coat, sat atop a horse, that looks a bit overwhelmed with the whole scene to be honest. Across the middle of the image, in a witch-like font is the word 'Greenwitch'. Beneath that a caption that reads: Attention all Ozians! London's iconic Royal Borough of Greenwich has had a Wicked makeover, changing its name to Greenwitch in celebration of the cinematic spectacular flying into cinemas on November 22
