Ariana Grande and Josh Gad will lend their voices to the film adaptation of “Oh, The Places You’ll Go.”
Based on the Dr. Seuss classic, the animated musical will be directed by “Wicked” filmmaker Jon M. Chu and Jill Culton. Warner Bros. will release the movie on March 17, 2028.
Plot details haven’t been revealed, so it’s unclear how the film will take inspiration from the beloved picture book.
“Oh, The Places You’ll Go!” revolves around a young adventurer navigating the ups and downs of life and offers inspirational messages to readers like, “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.”
With those platitudes, the book has become a popular gift for graduates or anyone at an inflection point.
Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, the duo behind “Dear Evan Hansen” and “The Greatest Showman,” are writing original songs for the big-screen adaptation.
Additional cast members — likely many of whom can also carry a tune — will be announced at a later date.
This project reunites Chu with Grande, the star of “Wicked: Part One.” She’ll reprise her role as Glinda the Good, alongside Cynthia Erivo’s Elphaba, in “Wicked: For Good” on November 21.
The Grammy winner and Oscar nominee was also recently cast in “Meet the Parents 4” opposite Ben Stiller and Robert De Niro.
Gad is best known for voicing Olaf in the “Frozen” franchise and originating the role of Elder Cunningham in Broadway’s enduring hit “The Book of Mormon.”
He also played LeFou in Disney’s live-action “Beauty and the Beast” remake.
Chu has previously teamed with Warner Bros. on “Crazy Rich Asians” and “In the Heights.”
The director has attached his name to dozens of film projects at the moment, including a “Hot Wheels” live-action adventure, a Play Doh animated feature, a Britney Spears biopic and another stage-to-screen musical in “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.”
