Release Date & Why It’s Split into Two Films
Wicked: For Good will debut on November 21, 2025. Universal has decided to split the adaptation into two parts to preserve the musical’s rich score and emotional depth—especially the iconic songs and moments that cannot fit into a single film.
Plot: What Happens in Part Two?
Picking up after Defying Gravity, the sequel immerses readers in Elphaba’s transformation into the “Wicked Witch of the West” and Glinda’s journey toward becoming the “Good Witch.” Expect tension, political rebellion, and emotional reunions—plus the long-awaited showdown with Dorothy. The story tests the dynamic between Glinda and Elphaba in intense ways.
Wicked 2 Cast & Characters
Key players returning include:
- Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba
- Ariana Grande as Glinda
- Jonathan Bailey as Fiyero
- Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible
- Jeff Goldblum as the Wizard
- Plus powerful cameos by Kerry Ellis, Bowen Yang, and Marissa Bode.
New Music & Songs
Part Two features all of Act II’s iconic tracks—such as “No Good Deed,” “For Good,” and “March of the Witch Hunters”—alongside two new original songs co-written by Cynthia Erivo and Stephen Schwartz, designed to tug at your heartstrings.
Will the Sequel Be Dubbed?
Yes! Wicked 2 will feature full dubbed versions, including songs, in markets like Germany, Brazil, Mexico, Spain, and Japan. Fans report that local stage cast members are already working on some dubbed soundtrack versions—though English-language versions will also be widely available.
That local casting means someone in Japan can still feel chills while listening to a well-known Broadway Fiyero—no subtitles needed.
If you loved Wicked’s blend of fantasy, friendship, and moral complexity, Part Two is your deeper journey into Oz’s conflicted magic. It’s more emotional drama, more music, and yes—more chemistry between Elphie and Glinda. And for international audiences, the dubbed versions make it accessible to everyone. So mark your calendars and prepare for an epic November 2025 premiere!
