In 2025, the second installment of the 'Wicked' duology, titled 'Wicked: For Good', is set to hit theaters. The film, which has undergone a title change from the previously announced 'Wicked: Part Two', will continue the captivating story of Glinda (Ariana Grande) and Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) in the land of Oz.
According to reports, the sequel will see the two lead characters potentially more separated than in the first film, though they will still share some duets, including the iconic song 'For Good'. The supporting cast, including Jonathan Bailey as Fiyero, Ethan Slater as Boq, and Marissa Bode as Nessarose, will also return. Additionally, Michelle Yeoh's Madame Morrible and Jeff Goldblum's Wizard of Oz will reprise their roles.
