Estimated read time: 2-3 minutes
Get ready to part ways with your hard-earned cash, because the trailer for "Wicked: For Good" is now live — and let's not pretend like you're not going to see it in theaters this November. Considering the first film made over $750 million, I'm assuming most of you saw it even if you won't admit it.
The Broadway smash that took theaters by storm with Part 1 of the theatrical adaptation is now ready to whet those appetites with a 2.5-minute trailer of Part 2, titled "Wicked: For Good."
Within minutes of its debut online, the trailer started racking up views and comments. To say fans are excited to see the conclusion of the blockbuster film would be an understatement. Within one hour, the trailer already had nearly 2,000 comments, with most expressing enthusiasm for the movie's release.
The trailer itself shows off some snippets of some of the believed songs we will hear in the finale, as well as a glimpse of what to expect in the second half of Elphaba and Glinda's journey. If you have not seen the Broadway musical, this trailer may reveal a potential spoiler or two, but I don't think anything is there that will ruin the movie.
The trailer leans on the heavier side of things, possibly worrying some that the goofy charm and quirky jokes from Part 1 will be lost. But then we get a Glinda head tilt and self-absorbed quip similar to those we fell in love with last year. There is also something about seeing Elphaba summon her broom like Thor does his hammer that gives you the chills.
"Wicked: For Good" is slated to be released on Nov. 21.
