The Wicked movie trailer has officially dropped like a house on a witch! And let me tell you, it’s sparkly, green, and stuffed with more star power than Glinda’s glittery ballgown.
Leading the charge is none other than Ariana “I Only Wear Ponytails Higher Than the Clouds” Grande as Glinda, the good witch with a voice so sweet, birds probably drop out of the sky just to get a closer listen. She’s joined by Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, the not-so-bad bad witch who just happens to be the color of fresh kale and equally misunderstood.
But wait, there’s more! The cast list reads like Hollywood’s version of a potluck dinner: a little of everything, and you’re not sure how it all fits together, but you’re here for it. Michelle Yeoh steps in as Madame Morrible—because when you’re casting a magical headmistress, you have to call in someone who literally fought off everything in Everything Everywhere All at Once. And if that wasn’t enough, Jeff Goldblum plays the Wizard, because obviously! Who better to confuse you with his weirdly charming, stutter-filled speeches?
Now, here’s where things get wild: the movie, in a plot twist more dramatic than Elphaba’s eyeliner, has been split into two parts. Yes, two. Because apparently, trying to tell this iconic tale in a single movie was like shoving a flying monkey into a shoebox—it just wasn’t happening. Why settle for one when you can milk the magic cow twice, right?
And speaking of drama, rumor has it that one of the original Broadway witches is going to make a cameo. You heard that right! Thanks to some seriously sharp-eyed fans (who apparently have been watching the trailer with binoculars), we’ve got whispers that an OG Wicked star might be showing up, possibly to sprinkle some extra fairy dust or just drop in and say, “Hey, I was green first!”
Mark your calendars for November 22, because this movie is coming in hot, heavy, and full of enough magic to make even your houseplants grow legs and start dancing! 🌟🎶
