Wicked For Good Movie (2025) - Plot Synopsis: US Release Date: November 21, 2025
Starring: Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, Jeff Goldblum, Jonathan Bailey, Michelle Yeoh
Director : Jon M. Chu
Synopsis: Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo), now demonized as The Wicked Witch of the West, lives in exile, hidden within the Ozian forest while continuing her fight for the freedom of Oz's silenced Animals and desperately trying to expose the truth she knows about The Wizard (Jeff Goldblum). Glinda, meanwhile, has become the glamorous symbol of Goodness for all of Oz, living at the palace in Emerald City and reveling in the perks of fame and popularity. Under the instruction of Madame Morrible (Oscar® winner Michelle Yeoh), Glinda is deployed to serve as an effervescent comfort to Oz, reassuring the masses that all is well under the rule of The Wizard. As Glinda's stardom expands and she prepares to marry Prince Fiyero (Olivier award winner and Emmy and SAG nominee Jonathan Bailey) in a spectacular Ozian wedding, she is haunted by her separation from Elphaba. She attempts to broker a conciliation between Elphaba and The Wizard, but those efforts will fail, driving Elphaba and Glinda only further apart. The aftershocks will transform Boq (Tony nominee Ethan Slater) and Fiyero forever, and threaten the safety of Elphaba's sister, Nessarose (Marissa Bode), when a girl from Kansas comes crashing into all their lives. As an angry mob rises against the Wicked Witch, Glinda and Elphaba will need to come together one final time. With their singular friendship now the fulcrum of their futures, they will need to truly see each other, with honesty and empathy, if they are to change themselves, and all of Oz, for good.

00:01From the beginning, there was always a master plan for Wicked for Good.
00:09We knew that this was always going to be a bigger story than movie one.
00:14That was their youth.
00:17Those kids have to grow up.
00:21And they have to make choices that may last a lifetime.
00:26This isn't school anymore.
00:30We knew everything in Wicked for Good, the temperature had to be turned up.
00:41And the stakes had to be higher.
00:47We got to really sort of explore Glinda and Elphaba's beautiful, complicated friendship.
00:53You never saw me. I was never here. Do you understand?
00:56No, I can't bear this anymore.
01:00Their sisterhood is so nuanced. I think that's why I've always loved it so much.
01:05Love stories usually have a definitive ending, which is happily ever after.
01:10But friendships are waves you go through that are both good and bad.
01:15It's a harder narrative thing to portray.
01:18And I love that.
01:19We really wanted this to feel like the epic conclusion of a friendship that we actually had with these people.
01:24So this film is vast in the world that's being created.
01:32It's epic in its emotions.
01:34It's a huge undertaking in every extraordinary way.
01:37The scope of the sets is bigger. The lands that we go to are bigger.
01:44Thank God it takes thousands of people to make a movie like this because together you all lift.
01:49Oh my goodness.
01:50All these characters now get a bigger canvas to grow in and experience death, love, faith, destiny, justice.
02:04It all comes together in Wicked For Good.
02:10For Good.
02:11For Good.
