As A Fan, I’m Pumped For Wicked: For Good. And Am Loving Cynthia Erivo Would Do Anything To See Sequel Footage Too

The much-anticipated movie “Wicked: For Good,” which has been creating a stir in the 2025 film schedule, has fans worldwide eager for any news about its second part. Cynthia Erivo, an ardent fan of the musical and upcoming film, shares this excitement. As a new enthusiast myself, I’m looking forward to the November premiere. Until then, I’ll joyfully follow Erivo’s eagerness for a sneak peek into what awaits us all in the land of Oz.

The actress who played Harriet recently spoke with THR about her possible nomination for the 2025 Oscars in the Best Actress category. During their conversation, they talked about her potential to make Oscar history. Interestingly, the 38-year-old admitted that she has only seen a small amount of footage from Wicked: For Good. She also mentioned that the sequel is currently being edited, but its director, Jon M. Chu, is keeping everyone away from the upcoming promotional materials. The actress who starred in The Bad Times at El Royale expressed her excitement about getting a sneak peek behind the scenes before the movie’s release day, stating that she can’t wait to see it.

I’ve caught a glimpse of the tiniest slice [of the film]. Not on set, though. I’m aware it’s being polished at the moment, but [Jon M. Chu] hasn’t let us peek at it just yet. However, I’m not prepared to wait that long to catch this movie, so I’m determined to sneak into the editing suite.

It’s quite unexpected that even renowned figures like Cynthia Erivo (or possibly Ariana Grande) won’t get a sneak peek at Part 2 before the general public, as Chu is carefully guarding it. Given their roles and the interactions I’ve observed through interviews, I speculate that they might catch glimpses of teasers, trailers, and eventually the movie ahead of us. In the meantime, I’ll be eagerly awaiting more promotional materials to keep me excited!

With each passing awards ceremony, Cynthia Erivo, along with the “Eternal Sunshine” singer, continues to be in the spotlight, such as at last night’s Grammy’s. Each appearance of theirs rekindles my excitement that For Good is edging ever closer. I must confess, I’m a fresh face in the Wicked universe, but my enthusiasm for it has grown exponentially since discovering how brilliantly this prequel brings the Frank L. Baum Hollywood classic to life. To top it all off, Cynthia Erivo and her fellow cast members are like the perfect cherry on an already delicious Ozian sundae.

I’m eagerly awaiting the day when the “Wicked: For Good” content becomes available to fans such as myself. Fingers crossed (and it seems probable) that talented individuals like Cynthia Erivo and her fellow cast members will have an opportunity to preview it before everyone else. If the 2024 release, with its impressive box office performance, is any indication, we’re in for a fantastic experience!

Title “Wicked Part 1” can currently be watched via Video On Demand (VOD) platforms, and it’s being screened in theaters across the country. Soon, you’ll be able to stream it on Peacock once it becomes available, if you have an active subscription.
