For Good’ director spills the beans about movie’s master plan
Wicked: For Good director, Jon M. Chu, has recently dished on the exciting details about the movie.
During an interview with Empire, the American film director candidly discussed what fans can expect from the sequel.
“I love that people get to see the full masterplan, and the full scope of what Cynthia and Ariana do in this movie,” he told the outlet. “I’m so happy they were appreciated in the first one, but movie two is where the meat comes out.”
Revealing the challenges that Elphaba will face, Chu said, “The stakes are higher than ever for Elphaba. She’s fighting to expose the Wizard, but she’s alone in that.”
“Can one person actually make a difference? She’s up against the Wizard’s propaganda, calling her the Wicked Witch, talking about how her skin is green and her soul is impure,” the 45-year-old director continued.
Leaving fans in suspense about the ending, Jon M. Chu concluded, “What happens when the home you believed in doesn’t want you anymore? Is it worth defending? Why stay?”
Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande are reprising their Oscar-nominated roles as Elphaba and Glinda, respectively, in the fantasy movie alongside Ethan Slater, Jonathan Bailey, Peter Dinklage, and Jeff Goldblum.
For those unversed, Wicked: Part 1 concluded its worldwide theatrical run with $756.2 million in global box office revenue against a production budget of $150 million, making it box office success.
Wicked: For Good is set to release on November 20, 2025.

Hailee Steinfeld reveals how she supports husband Josh Allen from afar
Hailee Steinfeld stays tuned in to Josh Allen’s NFL performances despite her demanding schedule, and she gave an insight into her routine in the ongoing season in her latest newsletter.
The 29-year-old actress is expecting her first baby with the Buffalo Bills quarterback and could not attend all the games, but she was sure not to miss watching any on television.
The Sinners star recently attended the Golden Globes, which clashed with Allen’s playoffs at the same time, but Steinfeld wrote in her Beau Society newsletter that she was “a little (lot) distracted.”
The Dickinson actress explained, “My glam team is incredible at what they do and worked around my constant movement. Andrew [Fitzsimons, my hairstylist] warned me every time an iron was close to my face, so I didn’t accidentally burn myself.”
The mom-to-be continued to praise her makeup team, who utilised the ad breaks to finish off her nails and makeup.
Steinfeld concluded her newsletter with more grateful reflections, as she discussed becoming a “softer, stronger” version of herself in her 29th year, and embraces the upcoming chapter of parenthood in her life.

Zara and Mike Tindall’s ‘second home’ outshines other royals
Zara Tindall and husband Mike Tindall were once again the picture of joy this weekend as they continued their annual Australian tradition at the Magic Millions Carnival on the Gold Coast.
The couple have called this trip their “second home” and a highlight of their calendar for over a decade.
The daughter of Princess Anne and her former England rugby star husband were all smiles as they mingled with fans and fellow equestrian ambassadors during the Carnival’s marquee race day.
They were seen walking hand in hand, laughing during interviews and delighting the crowd with their easygoing chemistry.
More than just spectators, the Tindalls are long‑standing ambassadors for the Magic Millions Racing Women initiative since 2012 and this year’s festivities put them firmly in the thick of the action.
Alongside close friends and fellow ambassadors like Argentine polo star Nacho Figueras and his wife Delfina Blaquier, Zara has been taking part in various events, from barrier draws to showjumping and polo festivities.
Fans down under have also caught glimpses of the couple enjoying life off the formal track, leisurely beach strolls at Cabarita Beach, cocktails, sunsets and even low‑key nights out that Mike cheekily shared on social media, giving a peek into the fun side of their Australian sojourn.
