The Bad cast traveled the world – from Sydney to LA – during the press tour for the film, but Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater have now added a new stop of their own. The couple recently stopped by Grande’s hometown of Boca Ratón, Florida to enjoy the movie with her family, and luckily for us, they gave fans a peek on social media.

On Nov. 25, Ariana Grande shared on her Instagram Stories that she took a day trip to Florida to enjoy Wicked on the big screen with her Nonna Marjorie and her brother Frankie — and of course Ethan Slater came along.

Ariana first posted a photo of herself in the theater, leaning against her Nonna — who, in a very iconic move, had her dog on her lap — as Frankie watched from the next seat. “I flew to Boca for a day to watch Nonna at the movie theater I went to every weekend as a kid, Cinemark 20 in Boca,” Grande captioned the photo, which her tag said was taken by Slater.

Just in case there was any doubt about who the family’s personal photographer was, Ariana added another slide of the trio holding hands in the middle of the film, tagging Slater again and this time making it clear that he was the photographer with a small card and a smiling face.

“I’m happy to report that when the sugar glider had her drum solo, Nonna loudly exclaimed, ‘Oh, I love that,'” Ariana wrote in the slide, tagging director John M. Chu. Slater reposted the slide in his own stories, but added no further commentary.

To round out the viewing recap, Ariana also posted a video of her Nonna watching the scene where her character Galinda sings the fan favorite “Popular.” In the clip, her Nonna is seen smiling from ear to ear as she holds Ariana’s hand. Ariana also giggles as the song ends, and the room, including Frankie, cheers loudly.

After much anticipation, Bad Part one finally appeared in theaters on November 22, 2024. In case you’ve been living under a rock, the film stars Ariana Grande as Galinda/Glinda The Good Witch and Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba. An adaptation of the long-running Broadway musical, like its predecessor, The Bad film is inspired by Gregory Maguire’s 1995 book Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, which serves as a revisionist prequel to L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
