On April 16, the film's official Instagram page shared two photos
one of Ariana donning a pink gown while walking up a wooden staircase and one of Cynthia holding a broomstick while wearing a black witch hat and a matching dress
Chu shared those very snaps to his own Instagram the same day
along with a message about the highly-anticipated movie adaptation
"You weren't told the whole story. What happens when you veer off the Yellow Brick Road?" he wrote. "FIRST LOOK of the #WickedMovie … currently in production in Oz."
As for when viewers will get the full look at this project? The film will be arriving in theaters November 2024—a month earlier than originally planned
"So…We've decided to get it to you all a little earlier than planned
Later in March, Ariana's brother Frankie Grande exclusively told E! News' Francesca Amiker about his sister's audition process, and the moment she told him she landed the role.
very hard on the audition process and she would let me in afterwards and tell me how each one of them went," Frankie recalled
"I remember when she told me that she booked it
Because it was something that she had been dreaming of her entire life."
Indeed, it's safe to say that dream come true has exceeded her expectations. On April 3, Ariana penned a message on what production has been like
"Savoring every millisecond left with my Galinda (although she'll be with me irrevocably
"She shows me so many new things every day
i don't know what to do or say… to be here in Oz where everyday is a life changing one… to be feeling
learning and growing so much at such a disarming speed… to feel so much love around me
to begin each day before the sun is up and to end after it sets… to hold my brilliant twin flame / sister Cynthia's beautiful
green hands every day… to work in the safest
biggest-yet-most-intimate/tiny-feeling spaces."
Cynthia responded to Ariana's passionate words by writing in the comment section
I can not imagine my life without you in it!

Proven K-block brake solution from Jurid® provides improved performance and durability
20th July 2016… Federal-Mogul Motorparts
a division of Federal-Mogul Holdings Corporation
has launched its new Jurid® K-block friction material for rail freight wagons
which is a comprehensive evolution of the market-proven Jurid 816M product
provides the K-block solution for state-of-the-art
Optimised contact surface areas and use of the latest manufacturing techniques also help to reduce wheel and block wear rates by up to 15 percent
The new K-block is currently undergoing a full range of tests on the new InnoWaggon
a member of Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB)
“Federal-Mogul’s detailed market knowledge and close working relationship with freight wagon manufacturers
freight wagon keepers and fleet operators provide us with a clear vision of solutions required by the rail industry,” said Martin Hendricks
President Global Braking and Regional President EMEA
“Our partnerships with brake system manufacturers and their suppliers give us a crucial understanding of the complete package
We provide a solution from initial concept and development through to commercialisation
meaning that all friction requirements can be met from a single source.”
Jurid 822 is compatible with the latest EU legislation (UIC,TSI WAG
TSI NOISE) that tightened controls over noise and performance
The existing Jurid K-block technology was restricted to double-sided brake applications
Federal-Mogul Motorparts offers a solution that enables the use of single-sided 1xBgu brake wagons throughout Europe
It is estimated that 6,000 to 8,000 new wagons with single-sided brake systems will be placed into operation in Europe annually in the next couple of years
Jurid 822 provides freight operators with an opportunity to improve the efficiency and operation costs of these vehicles
Initial tests by Federal-Mogul Motorparts have shown that Jurid 822 has a longer life cycle than competitors’ materials but also reduces the wear on the wheel by up to 15 percent without compromising performance
As the wheel is one of the most expensive consumable components in the maintenance of freight wagons
reducing its wear has a significant effect on the total Life Cycle Costing (LCC) of the vehicle
“Following extensive in-house R&D
the Jurid team has optimised the shape of the block-to-wheel contact area to improve performance
reduce NVH levels and offer improved lifespan,” said Gernot Kasper
“During extensive trials in a controlled dynamometer environment
Jurid 822 also provided significantly improved performance results when compared with leading competitors
the overall weight of the 822 block has also been reduced without negatively impacting durability
optimising the marginal gains in every technical area
It provides a truly market leading product and a vital solution for the freight industry.”
Jurid 822 has been undergoing testing since 2015
on the new Rail Cargo Group’s InnoWaggon
This includes a demanding route across the Alps with high loads
commonly known as the Semmering pass (around 1,000 metres above sea level)
The friction blocks and wheels were continuously measured for wear and data collected on wheel geometry to determine overall friction material performance
Jurid 822 is expected to be fully approved and commercialised by 2017
Federal-Mogul Motorparts will present its portfolio of rail braking applications at InnoTrans in Berlin from September 20thto 23rd2016 in hall 1.2

Replacement for cast iron blocks extends the useable service life of more than 400,000 freight wagons in Europe
October 5th … Federal-Mogul Motorparts
a division of Federal-Mogul Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: FDML)
a new LL brake block that enables freight wagons
The new friction formulation reduces the noise of these in-service freight wagons to meet legal limits
providing a solution for over 400,000 affected wagons in Europe
a new K-block solution for state-of-the-art
the company exhibited two novel rail braking solutions at the trade fair
“Jurid 847 is a vital solution provided at a critical time - the new LL block enables almost half a million wagons to remain in active service
when they would have otherwise had operation restrictions or even prohibited entry to some European countries,” said Martin Hendricks
People living close to rail lines are less disturbed by noise emissions and rail operators can extend the life of their existing fleet.”
The LL blocks are interchangeable with the original cast iron blocks
maintaining the same friction coefficient while reducing noise
It provides an environmentally friendly OE solution to an issue raised when UIC and TSI legislation was announced in 2006
from 2020 the old cast iron block-equipped wagons will not be allowed into Switzerland
but Jurid 847 negates this ruling by meeting the requirements
“Analysis during an extensive R&D period has led to an optimized block design
which shortens the bedding-in phase to increase efficiency and reduces the level of wheel and block wear while providing a stable friction coefficient,” explained Gernot Kasper
“Reliable service is crucial for freight operators
and the extended life cycle of wheels and brake blocks using Jurid 847 is a vital competitive advantage
both in terms of dependability and expensive
The new product is currently undergoing the final approval stages and will complete 60,000 km of rigorous testing before the final certification and commercialisation
