Director Jon M. Chu teases Wicked: Part 2 and reveals that the second movie, which arrives in November 2025, will be about consequences.
Wicked, which is directed by Chu, is now playing in United States theaters. The film is the first chapter in a two-part adaptation of the popular Broadway show of the same name.“If Part 1 is about choices, Part 2 is about consequences,” Chu said. ”Choices are difficult to make, but when you do make those choices, sometimes the result isn’t what you expect it to be. It can be lonely, it can be hard.
He added, “There’s a lot of soul-searching in movie 2. They’re asking, ‘Is this the right decision that you made?’” Chu — who also previously directed 2016’s Now You See Me 2, 2018’s Crazy Rich Asians, and 2021’s In the Heights, among other titles — noted that, while Wicked: Part 2 may be darker than the first movie, there will still be “lots of lightness in the movie.”
He continued, “There’s a lot of fun parts. We’ve not forgotten about that, but there’s a matureness and a nuance to it that we earn from the first movie. The second movie really gets to play with .”as Glinda Upland, Jonathan Bailey as Fiyero Tigelaar, Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible, Jeff Goldblum as The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Ethan Slater as Boq Woodsman, Marissa Bode as Nessarose Thropp, Bowen Yang as Pfannee, Bronwyn James as ShenShen, and Peter Dinklage as the voice of Doctor Dillamond.
