Everything to Know About Wicked Part 2

If you loved the 'Wicked' movie, you'll be happy to know that there will soon be a sequel!

'Wicked: Part 2' is set to release in theaters on Friday, Nov. 21, 2025, according to The Hollywood Reporter. 

Both the first and second films were filmed simultaneously, according to director Jon M. Chu. It was initially supposed to be one movie, but they were divided into two parts to allow an in-depth exploration of the story. 

The executive producer of the first film Stephen Schwartz ensured that there will be two new songs in the sequel, which were not featured in the Broadway production. 

Schwartz was the composer for the original Broadway 'Wicked' production.

The sequel will be Act 2 from the Broadway production; it will pick up from where the first film concluded. 

After Elphaba's rebellion against Madame Morrible and The Wizard of Oz will lead the pair to launch a campaign to hunt her down, which will be led by Fiyero.

Oz will give Glinda the mantle of 'Glinda the Good'; the sequel will focus on how Glinda becomes authentically good. 

The cast from the first film will feature in the sequel including Cynthia Erivo (Elphaba), Ariana Grande (Glinda), Michelle Yeoh (Madame Morrible), Jeff Goldblum (The Wizard of Oz), Jonathan Bailey (Fiyero), Ethan Slater (Boq), Marissa Bode (Nessarose), Peter Dinklage (voice of Doctor Dillamond), Bowen Yang, and Bronwyn James.

Some new characters will also be introduced in the sequel; Dorothy Gale, The Tin Man, the Scarecrow and the Cowardly Lion from 'The Wizard of Oz' will make an appearance as well.
