Get ready to “defy gravity” and learn the truth behind Oz’s most infamous witch as Universal Pictures releases the second official trailer for their upcoming musical Wicked. View trailer below.

Wicked, the untold story of the witches of Oz, stars Emmy, Grammy and Tony winning powerhouse Cynthia Erivo (Harriet, Broadway’s The Color Purple) as Elphaba, a young woman, misunderstood because of her unusual green skin, who has yet to discover her true power, and Grammy-winning, multi-platinum recording artist and global superstar Ariana Grande as Glinda, a popular young woman, gilded by privilege and ambition, who has yet to discover her true heart. The two meet as students at Shiz University in the fantastical Land of Oz and forge an unlikely but profound friendship. Following an encounter with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, their friendship reaches a crossroads and their lives take very different paths. Glinda’s unflinching desire for popularity sees her seduced by power, while Elphaba’s determination to remain true to herself, and to those around her, will have unexpected and shocking consequences on her future. Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfill their destinies as Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.

Oh wow…. a new trailer for this movie. I’m sure that another one was going to be release sometime in the near future, but I wasn’t expecting one so soon. Yet, I do indeed welcome it. This new trailer for the upcoming film does look terrific and showcases several new footage scenes that do look captivating. As i mentioned before, I never had the chance to see this musical on Broadway, so I’m quite interested in seeing this presentation. All in all, this trailer looks great and I can’t wait to see Wicked in November.

Wicked  arrives in theaters on November 22nd, 2024
