The highly anticipated Wicked Part Two: Wicked for Good is about to take us on a dazzling, emotional, and magical journey back to Oz. From returning stars to shocking plot twists, here’s your complete breakdown of what’s coming, along with hidden Easter eggs and behind-the-scenes insights.
Meanwhile, Glinda (Ariana Grande) is caught in a tug-of-war between good and evil. But is she really on the “good” side? Things are about to get complicated.
The Fiery Love Triangle
Fiyero (Jonathan Bailey) returns, but where does his loyalty truly lie? Will he remain faithful to Glinda or be drawn under Elphaba’s spell? Their chemistry is undeniable, and Part 2 promises to dive deeper into their tangled story.
A Star-Studded Supporting Cast
Prepare for a powerhouse ensemble:
Jeff Goldblum returns as the Wizard, this time with a darker twist.
Michelle Yeoh joins as Madam Morrible, and she’s set to steal every scene.
Ethan Slater takes on Boq, while Marissa Bode plays Nessarose.
This stacked cast ensures both new and longtime fans will have plenty to look forward to.
New Music to Stir the Soul
Musical fans are in for a treat — two brand-new songs by Stephen Schwartz have been confirmed. These additions are set to heighten the emotional stakes and sit alongside the iconic original score.
The Story So Far – From Friendship to Rivalry
In Part 1, audiences watched the unlikely friendship between Elphaba and Glinda unfold — and eventually unravel. By the end, Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) had exposed the Wizard’s deception, cementing her path toward becoming the infamous Wicked Witch of the West.
In Wicked Part 2, Elphaba has fully embraced her darker side, but her story is far from black-and-white. She’s fighting for what she believes is right, even if the world sees her as the villain. Glinda (Ariana Grande), on the other hand, finds herself caught between upholding the image of “goodness” and confronting uncomfortable truths. Their dynamic is set to become even more layered and emotionally charged.
Seamless Storytelling & Stunning Visuals
Since Wicked and Wicked Part 2 were filmed back-to-back, expect a smooth continuation of the story. Early glimpses show jaw-dropping sets, magical effects, and an even more immersive trip to Oz than before.
Release Date & Trailer Highlights

Wicked’s Journey Back After the Hiatus
The pandemic forced theaters to go dark, and Wicked was no exception. Performers, crew, and staff were left without a stage — but the fan base kept the magic alive.
