The final trailer for Wicked: For Good has landed, and it’s not the cheerful Oz fans might remember. Ariana Grande’s Glinda and Cynthia Erivo’s Elphaba are locked in a heated face-off, with one moment showing Glinda smashing her wand against Elphaba’s broom on the yellow brick road. Tensions are through the roof.
In the clip, Ariana Grande delivers, “I’m a public figure now, people expect me to—” before Cynthia Erivo cuts in, “Fly?” Ariana Grande snaps back with, “Be encouraging!” It’s sharp, funny, and hints at a messy, complicated friendship turned rivalry.
Songs, Romance, and Chaos
The Wicked: For Good trailer doesn’t hold back on the big musical moments. Fans get glimpses of Ariana Grande’s sparkling “Thank Goodness” and Cynthia Erivo’s powerhouse ballad “No Good Deed.” Jonathan Bailey’s Fiyero even shares a wedding scene with Ariana Grande’s Glinda, though chaos takes over when a stampede crashes the ceremony. Michelle Yeoh’s Madame Morrible drops the line, “This is the work of the Wicked Witch!”
And yes, there’s romance. Cynthia Erivo’s Elphaba and Jonathan Bailey’s Fiyero float mid-air in the emotional duet “As Long as You’re Mine.” Ariana Grande also gets her bubble moment, declaring, “I’m obsess-u-lated!”
What the Sequel Promises
Wicked: For Good picks up after Cynthia Erivo’s Elphaba is labeled the Wicked Witch of the West. On the run, she fights for Oz’s silenced Animals. Meanwhile, Ariana Grande’s Glinda basks in her new role as the dazzling symbol of Goodness in Emerald City.
