Cynthia Erivo shared her unique viewing experience of "Wicked: For Good" during an appearance on "Late Night with Seth Meyers." The actress confessed that her initial watch of the film left her too emotionally overcome to fully absorb the content.

Erivo explained that it is her usual practice to watch films twice, with the second viewing allowing her to finally process the experience. For "Wicked: For Good," this meant an intensely emotional second watch where she "fell to her knees and wept."
