arrived, and with it, a tidal wave of excitement, speculation, and screen grabs.<\/p>\n<p>The sequel to last year\u2019s Wicked, which soared to $755million (\u00a3590m) at the global box office and landed 10 Oscar nominations, brings back <a data-track=\"inline-tag-auto-link_article\" href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/tag\/cynthia-erivo\/\">Cynthia Erivo<\/a> as Elphaba and Ariana Grande as Glinda to continue the witches\u2019 origin story.<\/p>\n<p>Based on the second act of the Wicked stage musical, itself adapted from Gregory Maguire\u2019s novel (and of course, L. Frank Baum\u2019s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz), Wicked: For Good picks up with Elphaba in hiding and Glinda navigating the aftermath of their diverging paths. <\/p>\n<p>The trailer teases heartbreak, rebellion, and the arrival of a mysterious figure in ruby slippers.<\/p>\n<p>But beyond the drama and vocals, fans are noticing something else: <a data-track=\"inline-tag-auto-link_article\" href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/tag\/easter\/\">Easter<\/a> eggs. <\/p>\n<p>X user @2nnjenn_ wrote: ‘Quick someone smarter than me find all the easter eggs and spoilers from the Wicked: For Good trailer. #wicked’<\/p>\n<figure class=\"img-container shareable-item wp-caption\">\n<div class=\"img-wrap\">\n\t\t<img width=\"646\" height=\"274\" src=\"http:\/\/www.nichesitetool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/SEI_254360621-2f86-e1749119045551.jpg\" class=\"article-image wp-image-23336536\" alt=\"Grabs: Wicked: For Good\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t<\/div><figcaption>Ariana returns as Glinda in the new trailer (Picture:Universal Pictures UK)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"img-container shareable-item wp-caption\">\n<div class=\"img-wrap\">\n\t\t<img width=\"646\" height=\"268\" src=\"http:\/\/www.nichesitetool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/SEI_254360729-0c64-e1749119072179.jpg\" class=\"article-image wp-image-23336515\" alt=\"Grabs: Wicked: For Good\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t<\/div><figcaption>And we get our first look at the yellow brick road (Picture: Universal Pictures UK)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"img-container shareable-item wp-caption\">\n<div class=\"img-wrap\">\n\t\t<img width=\"646\" height=\"266\" src=\"http:\/\/www.nichesitetool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/SEI_254360700-2826-e1749119137770.jpg\" class=\"article-image wp-image-23336539\" alt=\"Grabs: Wicked: For Good\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t<\/div><figcaption>Some fans think the trailer supports the fan theory that Elphaba is bisexual (Picture: Universal Pictures UK)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>@juan_g_lopez605 agreed: ‘me looking for easter eggs in the trailer #WickedForGood’<\/p>\n<p>One of the most talked-about elements of the trailer is the implied arrival of Dorothy Gale. Several users pointed out that the shot of Dorothy on the yellow brick road directly references the original Wizard of Oz film, even mimicking an exact shot. <\/p>\n<p>Many fans connected a lot of the imagery to the 1939 classic, suggesting that director Jon M Chu is intentionally tying the two film worlds together.<\/p>\n<p>One X user pointed out that the trailer also included cut scenes from part one, perhaps suggesting there\u2019s more crossover between the parts than previously thought.<\/p>\n<p>This makes sense, given that both Wicked films were edited simultaneously. Fans now speculate that some moments were intentionally held back to enrich Part Two\u2019s emotional and narrative stakes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"metro-embed__twitter\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-conversation=\"all\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">new wicked trailer featuring "no good deed" (the best elphaba\/fiyero song) and "for good" (the best elphaba\/glinda song) as a symbol of elphaba's bisexuality in this essay i will- <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/slMioWkVsU\">pic.twitter.com\/slMioWkVsU<\/a><\/p>\n<p>— ash (he\/him) (@thisredwine) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thisredwine\/status\/1930435461392015833?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 5, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<p>One of the most widely shared discoveries involves Michelle Yeoh\u2019s Madame Morrible, who appears to summon a massive tornado in the trailer.
