Wicked: Part Two has a new title and has confirmed its release date, but one of the stars has revealed that she hasn't seen the film yet.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Ariana Grande, who plays Glinda, was asked why Wicked: For Good was the perfect title for the film's second part, to which she responded, "Because we have been changed For Good. It's gonna feel different."
The interviewer followed up by asking, "It's gonna feel different?" to which Grande responded, "A little bit. Yeah. I haven't seen it yet, but I do know how it felt to experience it, and I'm still recovering."

Wicked: For Good is due to hit theaters on November 21, 2025, a year after the release of Wicked, which captivated the hearts of audiences around the world.
Based on the Broadway musical of the same name, Wicked serves as a prequel to L. Frank Baum's The Wizard of Oz.
It dives into the life and times of the one we know in pop culture as "The Wicked Witch" and takes us through Elphaba's young adulthood, where she crossed paths with Glinda at university.
