Universal Pictures’ Wicked (now streaming exclusively on Peacock!) wove its witchy spell over the holiday box office only six short months ago, and already there’s plenty of Broadway-worthy Oz-buzz building toward the release of Wicked: For Good, the magical movie musical’s second and final chapter.
Returning Cynthia Erivo (Elphaba) and Ariana Grande (Galinda) to the Oscar-nominated roles they debuted in the 2024 original film, Wicked: For Good swoops into theaters everywhere beginning November 21 of this year. But before we hop a broom to sail back to the Emerald City, Universal Pictures is bringing the original Wicked back into theaters for a June special showing — and it even comes with a sweet early peek at the sequel!
