Most movie adaptations recently haven’t been good. At best, they’re mostly average. For a lot of reasons. It’s not just Cats. They’re mired in mediocrity. And Wicked actually needs some work to really work on screen. I’m fine with them taking the time they need to try and ensure it’s good.
What work? Honestly asking as someone who loves the play I think as long as the school feels "unique" they can do the rest with Mando tech. The characters are all great the only one I don't care for is the male love interest but don't think he's really written for me anyway
Musical Numbers are extremely hard to capture on screen, you can’t just copy and paste the stage version to screen it just won’t work. It’s not as simple as you think
I worry she'll do her signature runs while singing and like you said, it'll sound more like listening to Ariana Grande singing a cover of Wicked songs rather than her playing the character.
