Jon M. Chu’s highly anticipated Wicked sequel is already generating excitement among fans worldwide. Titled Wicked: For Good, the film dives deeper into the Land of Oz, exploring the timeline before and after Dorothy Gale’s iconic arrival from Kansas.
The story continues where the Broadway hit left off, focusing on Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) and Glinda (Ariana Grande) as they step into their legendary roles—the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch of the North. Their choices, alliances, and conflicts will reshape Oz forever, adding new layers to the beloved tale.
Within minutes of the trailer release, Wicked fans flooded social media with praise. Many highlighted the dazzling visuals, emotional performances, and memorable lines. “Just look at me, not with your eyes, with theirs” was hailed as one of the standout quotes. Others joked about being “already sat at the theatre,” while some admitted the trailer alone made them emotional.
Special recognition went to Ethan Slater’s transformation as the Tin Man, with fans applauding the film’s prosthetics and makeup design. Alongside Erivo, Grande, and Slater, the cast also features Jonathan Bailey as Fiyero, Jeff Goldblum as the Wizard, and Marissa Bode as Nessarose.
With its all-star cast, breathtaking visuals, and powerful storytelling, Wicked: For Good looks set to be a defining cinematic event. The sequel proves once again why Wicked remains one of the most beloved stories in modern pop culture.
