Ethan Slater, the talented actor and boyfriend of popstar Ariana Grande, had a bit of a mishap at the highly anticipated premiere of Wicked in London. The event, held at The Royal Festival Hall, was met with classic London drizzle, making the green carpet a bit slippery. As the Wicked cast, including Slater, made their way down the carpet, they were greeted by cheering fans. But unfortunately, the rain had caused the floor to become treacherous, and Slater found himself losing his footing.
Video footage captured by fans shows Slater slipping and almost falling backwards, in a moment that can only be described as cartoonish. But in a true display of grace and composure, he managed to catch himself before hitting the ground. The crowd gasped in shock, but Slater quickly reassured them with a wide grin and a thumbs-up, proving that he was unharmed.
The incident was quickly shared on social media, with fans adding their own humorous commentary. Many couldn't help but make references to Slater's iconic role in SpongeBob SquarePants: The Broadway Musical, wondering how SpongeBob himself would have handled the situation. But regardless of the jokes, it was clear that Slater handled the situation with poise and ease.
Thankfully, Slater recovered from the stumble and continued to look dashing on the green carpet. Fans were relieved to see him back on his feet, and the event continued without any further incidents. The Wicked movie musical, starring Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, and Jonathan Bailey alongside Slater, has been receiving rave reviews.
Metro's own film critic, Tori Brazier, praised the film for its scope, vision, and imagination, as well as the incredible talent of its cast and creatives. At the premiere, both Erivo and Grande looked stunning in their witchy and fabulous outfits, and managed to avoid any embarrassing stumbles or falls. The film tells the story of the unlikely friendship between Elphaba and Galinda, and how Elphaba came to be known as the Wicked Witch.
The production of Wicked gained massive media attention in 2023 when Ariana and Ethan met on set and began dating. It was later revealed that both stars had left their previous partners, with their divorces being finalized earlier this year before the film's big unveiling. As a result, there has been a lot of interest in Ethan, who was previously known mainly among Broadway enthusiasts. So it's safe to say that his slip at the premiere was seen around the world.
