The magical world of Wicked is returning to the big screen with its highly anticipated sequel, Wicked: For Good, and fans are already buzzing with excitement after the official trailer dropped.
Following the success of Wicked: Part One, the sequel will explore the events of Act Two from the iconic Broadway musical. Set years after the original storyline, Wicked: For Good delves deeper into the evolving friendship between Elphaba and Glinda as they navigate the fallout of their decisions and the paths they’ve chosen.
According to the film’s official synopsis, “In a world changed forever, the friendship between Elphaba and Glinda is tested as they navigate their new identities and the consequences of their actions.” The trailer also hints at Dorothy’s arrival in Oz, which adds tension as Elphaba struggles with her role as the infamous Wicked Witch and Glinda steps into the spotlight as Glinda the Good.

The internet quickly lit up with passionate responses from fans:
- “Stop, I’m actually gonna cry. Why do I feel like part 2 will be even better than part 1?” one fan wrote on X.
- “When they drop the soundtrack I’m going to be insufferable,” another joked.
- “If I’m freaking out this hard over a small snippet of No Good Deed, I actually think the full song is GOING to kill me in November,” added a third user.
The sequel features a star-studded cast including Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba and Ariana Grande as Glinda. Returning cast members also include Jonathan Bailey, Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Yeoh, Ethan Slater as Boq, and Marissa Bode.
