The final trailer for “Wicked: For Good” was released today, giving fans a closer look at the ending of the two-part adaptation of the popular Broadway musical. It builds on last year’s “Wicked” and shows the broken friendship between Elphaba and Glinda, the political turmoil in Emerald City, and the important question of what it means to be “good.”
The trailer features popular songs like “No Good Deed,” “Thank Goodness,” and “As Long As You’re Mine,” along with dramatic visuals of Oz in danger. Fans also see important new scenes, including Dorothy’s arrival and the growing corruption of the Wizard and Madame Morrible. The tone hints at a darker, more emotional story focused on friendship, sacrifice, and the price of power.
The film brings back its famous cast. Cynthia Erivo is back as Elphaba Thropp, the misunderstood Wicked Witch of the West, while Ariana Grande reprises her role as Glinda Upland, facing public adoration and political duties. Jonathan Bailey returns as Fiyero, caught between loyalties as Oz faces chaos, and Jeff Goldblum plays the manipulative Wizard of Oz. Michelle Yeoh continues as Madame Morrible, the scheming power broker of Emerald City’s politics. Ethan Slater is Boq, and Marissa Bode plays Nessarose. Peter Dinklage voices Dr. Dillamond, the persecuted goat professor symbolizing Oz’s larger struggles. Bowen Yang and Bronwyn James support as Glinda’s friends, Pfannee and Shenshen, adding humor and drama to the film.
Directed by Jon M. Chu, “Wicked: For Good” seeks to close the adaptation on a high note, blending spectacle with the emotional depth that has made the stage musical a cultural icon. With its release nearing, today’s trailer hints at a grand and conclusive end to the saga, promising to offer audiences a new view of the story they believed they understood.
