Cynthia Erivo & Ariana Grande Undergo ‘Wicked’ Transformations in New ‘For Good’ Teaser

Great Oz! The first proper teaser for Wicked: For Good has arrived, and the characters are looking a lot different than they did when we first met them in Part 1.

Dropping Tuesday (June 3) — just one day ahead of the premiere of For Good‘s first trailer — the teaser opens with Cynthia Erivo fiercely staring down the camera, her hair down and outfit changed into a spookier black dress to show how her character, Elphaba, has fully embraced her role as the Wicked Witch of the West. On the flip side, Ariana Grande — who is the last to appear in the teaser — swapped her Shiz University uniform and pink bubble dress from the first Wicked film for a multi-colored ballgown and tiara, signifying how her character, Glinda, has leveled up as the people’s princess of Oz.

“I have been changed,” Erivo sings over the teaser, a snippet from the tear-jerking “For Good” duet in the Wicked Broadway musical.

Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Yeoh also return in the teaser, looking more sinister after Part 1 revealed how their characters — The Wizard of Oz and Madam Morrible, respectively — intended to use their power for evil. Plus, Jonathan Bailey looks stoic as Fiyero in his green Emerald City uniform, while Ethan Slater appears as munchkin Boq in a gray getup.

For Good is set to hit theaters this November, one year after the first installment of Jon M. Chu’s live-action musical duology premiered. Things will take a darker turn in the sequel as Elphaba’s magic powers get the best of her, putting her relationships with Glinda, Fiyero, and Marissa Bode’s Nessa Rose in jeopardy.

“She’s able to access her rage more,” Erivo told Billboard Pride editor Stephen Daw of Elphaba’s transformation for her June cover story. “The scent I wore changed. The makeup changed. Little shifts that bring you to a more mature version of who Elphaba becomes. And she is delicious in this next one.”

As promised in the new teaser — which ends with text reading, “Trailer tomorrow” flashing across the screen — the first full preview of For Good is set to premiere in theaters Wednesday (June 4) as the first Wicked film returns to big screens for one night only in the United States and Canada. By the end of May, Wicked had grossed $755.9 million worldwide, more than any other film adaptation of a Broadway musical.
