Glinda’s Brand-New Song in Wicked: For Good Makes the Sequel Even More Exciting
The highly-anticipated sequel to the 2024 film adaptation of the popular Broadway stage musical, Wicked: For Good, is set to revolutionize the story once again. The new song, written by Stephen Schwartz, will be performed by Ariana Grande’s character, Glinda, and is expected to make the story even more exciting.
The sequel, to be released on November 26, 2025, will explore the origins of Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West, from a brand-new perspective. The story follows the unlikely friendship between Elphaba and Glinda at Shiz University in the world of Oz. However, at the end of Wicked, the two are separated, setting the stage for the sequel.
The new song, titled “For Good,” will allow for a deeper exploration of Glinda’s character, showcasing a side of her that has never been seen before. As Grande revealed, the song will provide insight into a major decision Glinda makes in Act 2, which will redefine who she is as a character.
According to Grande, the song will be a pivotal moment in Glinda’s journey, allowing her to take a stand against The Wizard and Madame Morrible. This is a significant departure from the original story, where Elphaba leaves Emerald City to form a rebellion against the cruel rulers. Glinda, on the other hand, chooses to stay and attempt to make positive changes from within the city.
This new song will not only showcase Glinda’s growth as a character but will also highlight the significant differences between her and Elphaba. The sequel is expected to be even more exciting, thanks to this addition.
Overall, Wicked: For Good is set to be a game-changer, offering a fresh perspective on the beloved story. With the addition of the new song, the highly-anticipated sequel is sure to captivate audiences worldwide.
