US EditionAriana Grande Becomes 'Glinda the Good' in 'Wicked: For Good'
- The film Wicked: For Good, starring Ariana Grande as Glinda and Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, released in theaters on November 21, 2025.
- Director Jon M. Chu chose to adapt Wicked as a two-part film series to preserve the integrity of the story, feeling that condensing it into a single movie would compromise key elements.
- The movie follows Elphaba in exile fighting the Wizard's lies while Glinda becomes a public figure celebrated in Oz, featuring new songs created with Stephen Schwartz's collaboration.
- Cynthia Erivo said the new song "speaks to the heart of who Elphaba is," and Ariana Grande called her song a "pivotal moment in journey."
- The film’s release suggests fans can expect a faithful yet richer adaptation with higher stakes and deeper character consequences than the stage musical.
