The Broadway musical adaptation received a cinema version in 2024 starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. The new trailer for “Wicked” includes more references to “The Wizard of Oz.”
The teaser begins exactly where the first part of the film ended: with Glinda, played by Ariana Grande, asking Elphaba, portrayed by Cynthia Erivo, to reveal herself.
The two former schoolmates, now rivals, appear in the trailer singing excerpts from the song in the second act of the Broadway musical, “For Good,” which also gives the film its title.
Glinda is seen placing a shining crown and peeking at flying monkeys, while Elphaba practices magic and is pursued by Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh) and the Wizard of Oz himself (Jeff Goldblum).

The musical won two awards for Best Production Design and Best Art Direction.
