Chu, producer Marc Platt, and stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande had been all available to debut the primary footage from the highly anticipated Wicked: For Good, and whereas it’s not but on-line, right here’s what occurred.

Glass breaks on what seems to be a model new condominium. Glinda resides in within the Emerald Metropolis. She goes out to her huge balcony and says, “Elphaba Thropp, I do know you’re out right here, are available earlier than the monkeys see you.” The digital camera circles her twice after which, increase, Elphaba is there.

Elphaba has arrange a house for herself someplace within the woods. There, she appears to be like at among the propaganda that has been spreading about her. Monkeys fly by means of Oz. Glinda will get a large crown positioned upon her head. Madame Morrible says that the witch might be caught quickly, now that Prince Fiyero and his squad are sizzling on her path. So, we see Fiyero driving a horse by means of the woods, in uniform, with many troopers behind him.

The phrases “Our Wizard Lies” are written within the sky. Individuals are on the streets of the Emerald Metropolis with torches. Glinda returns to the tower from the top of the primary movie and walks up the steps.

Glinda and Elphaba are sitting collectively on a swing discussing all the nice they will do collectively. A shot of Glinda in an enormous church-like place, sporting an extended, pink, flowing robe, is adopted by a shot of Fiyero standing on an altar. Are they getting married?

A scene exhibits what seems to be Glinda and Elphaba again within the Wizard’s large room, with huge flashing coloured lights throughout, and it appears to be like like they’re all dancing collectively. Somebody handles a number of yellow bricks.

The Wizard has what’s clearly Dorothy, the Tin Man, Cowardly Lion, and Scarecrow in his palace and tells them to “Convey me the broom of the Depraved Witch of the West.” A follow-up to the dancing scene sees Fiyero pointing a gun at Elphaba with the Wizard there, just for him to shift it over to him. He’s nonetheless on her aspect.

Elphaba is speaking to Glinda and says, “You’re the one good friend I ever had.” “And I’ve had so many associates,” Glinda jokes again, and the 2 hug and cry.

Because the footage ends, Elphaba is standing in place. She places up her proper arm and attracts her hat in. She places up her left arm and attracts her broom in. Then she says, “I’m off the see the Wizard,” adopted by scenes of her flying by means of Oz, being chased by the monkeys.
