Oscar-winning writer and director Adam McKay has expressed concern that the hit musical film “Wicked” could face censorship in the US due to its progressive message, citing a growing trend of political radicalization. McKay likened the film to other iconic movies like “The Sound of Music” and “Citizen Kane”, highlighting its exploration of themes such as racism and discrimination. As the film’s popularity endures, with over $600 million in international box office sales, McKay warned that politicians may try to ban it in three to five years, citing the current state of American politics.
