Everything We Know About ‘Wicked: For Good’ (So Far)
'Wicked' Part 2 is coming soon. Here's everything we know so far about the sequel starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo.
Starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande as the project’s iconic leading ladies — Elphaba and Glinda, respectfully — Jon M. Chu’s Wicked Part 1 finally hit theaters after about three years of production and promotional buildup on Nov. 22, 2024, bringing in historic box-office numbers and becoming the top-grossing film based on a Broadway musical on record. Luckily, the sequel is poised to be well worth the wait; when Chu first announced that the adaptation would be split into two parts in April 2022, the director wrote on X, “With more space, we can tell the story of Wicked as it was meant to be told while bringing even more depth and surprise to the journeys of these beloved characters.” Viewers only got to see the briefest flash of Dorothy Gale in Wicked Part 1, with the first few minutes of the film featuring a clip of the pigtailed, blue-gingham-clad heroine walking down Oz’s iconic Yellow Brick Road alongside Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion.
