"Wicked" star Cynthia Erivo on building trust with Ariana Grande to bring Elphaba and Glinda to life

Cynthia Erivo is earning widespread acclaim for her portrayal of Elphaba in the highly anticipated film adaptation of "Wicked." The movie has already set records, grossing $262 million domestically and becoming one of the most successful Broadway adaptations.

In an interview on "CBS Mornings," Erivo opened up about how her friendship with singer and co-star Ariana Grande, who plays Glinda, became such an important part of their on-screen chemistry. She revealed that despite how close they are now, they didn't know each other before filming. 

"She came to my house, we sat, we chatted and talked," Erivo said. "And we just talked about everything and nothing. We were there for ages, and it was very, very easy, so part of us kind of knew, 'Oh, this might, this might work. We'll be okay, and I think we'll be able to get along with each other, and we'll find it.'"
