The newly released trailer for Wicked: For Good, the sequel to the 2024 hit musical film Wicked, offers a glimpse into the dramatic continuation of Elphaba and Glinda's intertwined destinies. Set to premiere on November 21, 2025, the film adapts the second act of the original Broadway musical, bringing to life the events that align with the classic Wizard of Oz narrative.
In the trailer, Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) is seen in hiding, branded as the "Wicked Witch of the West," while Glinda (Ariana Grande) embraces her role as the public face of goodness in Oz. The tension escalates with glimpses of Glinda's wedding to Fiyero (Jonathan Bailey) and the arrival of Dorothy, portrayed by Alisha Weir, whose presence signifies a turning point in the story.
Musical highlights in the trailer include powerful renditions of "No Good Deed" by Erivo and "For Good" as a duet between Erivo and Grande, underscoring the emotional complexity of their characters' relationship. Additionally, the film introduces two new songs written by Stephen Schwartz, aiming to deepen the narrative and character development.
Directed by Jon M. Chu, Wicked: For Good promises a visually stunning and emotionally resonant conclusion to the two-part adaptation. The film's darker tone and expanded focus on character arcs have generated significant anticipation among fans and critics alike. As the release date approaches, audiences eagerly await the culmination of Elphaba and Glinda's journey in this reimagined Oz.
