Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande have been changed for good by their Wicked dolls.

The two actresses, who star as Wicked Witch of the West Elphaba and Glinda the Good Witch, respectively, in the upcoming Wicked big-screen adaptations, are getting their very own in-character Barbie dolls.

In a video posted to Instagram by Erivo, 37, Grande, 31, Mattel and the Wicked movie, the duo are seen joyfully reacting to seeing a miniature Elphaba — complete with a black dress and pointy black hat — and girly Glinda — with long blonde hair and pastel-pink gown.

“What a dream come true to be realized as Elphaba and Glinda in the form of Sweet Little dolls,” wrote Erivo in a caption. “Little Cynthia and little Ari are pleased.”
