Wicked 2 debuts first clip of iconic song in new teaser ahead of trailer release
Wicked fans have been treated to a first tease of iconic song 'For Good' in an exciting new teaser clip.
The anticipated second movie instalment of the hit musical, starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, arrives in cinemas this November and audiences don't have long to wait to see the official trailer.
Universal Pictures UK revealed that the trailer for Wicked: For Good will drop this Thursday (5 June), sharing a new clip to tease the trailer release. The clip itself saw the Wicked cast appear in character to the tune of the film's namesake title - and one of the musical's beloved songs - 'For Good'.
The song plays as a piano instrumental version, with Erivo and Grande's voices heard together for the famous lyric: "I have been changed."
Erivo is the first to appear as Elphaba in the clip, followed by Jonathan Bailey's Fiyero, Michelle Yeoh's Madame Morrible and Jeff Goldblum's The Wizard.

Ethan Slater stars as Boq, followed by Marissa Bode who plays Elphaba's sister Nessarose Thropp. The clip ends on Grande as Glinda, who waves her wand and the film title appears.
It's likely that the Wicked: For Good trailer will drop in the UK in the early hours on Thursday morning, which will work out as Wednesday evening (4 June) in the US.
The second movie will see Act II of the musical brought to life on the big screen, with Wicked Part One ending on Cynthia Erivo's acclaimed rendition of 'Defying Gravity' (which coincidentally ends Act I of the musical).

Original 'Harry Potter' Actor to Join Hit 'Cursed Child' Broadway Play
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors One of the original "Harry Potter" actors is reprising their role for the stage play "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child", but it won't be one of the good guys. Tom Felton, who played Draco Malfoy - tormenter of Harry and his friends - in all eight "Harry Potter" films, will play an adult version of the character in the Broadway play. Read More: 'Wicked: For Good' is Coming in November: Watch the Official Trailer Felton announced the casting on TODAY, where he talked about what a unique opportunity it was to return to the role. "It's very much a pinch-me situation," Felton said. "I keep thinking I'm dreaming. I let go of that character 16 years ago, and now I get to step back into his shoes, as a father this time, in a new story." Rupert Grint (L) Emma Watson (M) and Daniel Radcliffe (R) on the set of the film "Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban," London, England, 2003. Rupert Grint (L) Emma Watson (M) and Daniel Radcliffe (R) on the set of the film "Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban," London, England, casting represents a number of firsts. Not only will this make him the first member of the original film cast to join the "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" stage play, but it will also represent Felton's Broadway debut. "'Potter' was a massive chunk of my childhood, and now I get to sort of go back whilst also going forward," Felton said. "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" takes place 19 years after the conclusion of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows", when the children of Draco, Harry, Ron, and Hermione are attending Hogwarts. Felton is a fitting addition to the cast, considering how the play turns fan expectations on their heads. Rather than history repeating itself, Harry's son Albus is sorted into the Slytherin house, where he befriends Draco's son Scorpius. "The play is such an independent story from the 'Potter' films that I grew up with," Felton said. "We start 19 years later ... now we're no longer children. We actually are the parents." "So as much as it is reprising an old role for me, it's very much treading into new, unfamiliar territory. I know [Draco] quite well as a kid. I don't know him that well as an adult. So that's the that's the exciting challenge ahead for me." This news comes a little over a week after the casting news dropped for the heroic child trio of the upcoming "Harry Potter" HBO Max reboot series. Newcomers Dominic McLaughlin, Arabella Stanton, and Alastair Stout will play the respective roles of Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley.

‘Wicked: For Good' Trailer: Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo Get Ready to Meet Dorothy
Oscar-nominated 'Wicked' stars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo are ready to close out the musical epic for good. The duo reprise their respective roles of Glinda and Elphaba for Part Two, 'Wicked: For Good,' directed by Jon M. Chu. And this time, Oz will have a new visitor: Dorothy (Alisha Weir). 'Wicked: For Good' spans a series of years, beginning with Erivo's Elphaba AKA the Wicked Witch now being an enemy of the state. Glinda (formerly Galinda) is the spokesperson for Oz thanks to her appointment by the Wizard (Jeff Goldblum), with her former teacher Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh) literally singing her praises. Glinda also just might have a wedding on the horizon to Jonathan Bailey's Fiyero, despite him blatantly lusting after Elphaba. This all leads into when Dorothy's house flies into Oz and the iconic 'Wizard of Oz' character walks the yellow brick road. More from IndieWire 'Search Party' and 'Never Rarely Sometimes Always' Location Scout Makes Directorial Debut with Meta Indie 'The Scout' - Watch First Look Julianne Moore Talks About Being Drawn Into the 'Stakes' of 'Echo Valley' - and Expresses a Desire to Work with Wes Anderson The 2024 film 'Wicked' made history as the highest-grossing movie musical of all time. It went on to land 10 Oscar nominations, and winning for costume and production design. 'Wicked' also won the Golden Globe for cinematic and box office achievement. Director Chu told Vanity Fair that the two parts of 'Wicked' will feel like one complete epic film, despite them being released a year apart. 'What's nice about movie two is it's so different from movie one that it doesn't feel like we're talking about what you just saw. It's the new chapter,' Chu said, teasing of the plot, 'Our heart was broken when Glinda can't make the choice that we want her to so badly at the end of movie one, and it feels empowering for Elphaba to fly away from society. In movie two, we get to see the consequences of those choices. The temperature is up.' Chu added, 'We want to finish this story in the way that this beautiful memory of 'Wicked' can actually come full circle and can be with you for the rest of your life. We want you to look at both movies in the end, and feel like it was one all along.' Universal will release 'Wicked: For Good' in theaters November 21. Check out the trailer below.

‘Architecton' Trailer: Victor Kossakovsky Charts the History of Concrete in A24 Documentary
Concrete, like most material, is taken for granted. Just look at the quiet beauty of the gray stone slabs as captured in Victor Kossakovsky's visual art installation adjacent documentary 'Architecton.' The film, which premiered at Berlinale 2024, centers on legendary architect and designer Michele De Lucchi as the history of concrete is explored. 'Gunda' director Kossakovsky investigates the effects of concrete on the environment, especially since the material cannot be recycled. The feature spans a war torn Ukraine to the Middle East, where concrete ruins of various kinds still stand after years of destruction. 'Architecton' is a reflection on man's relationship with architecture and making meaning out of ruins, rocks, and yes, concrete. The feature includes the research and voices of more than 100 leading international architects; Kossakovsky details in the trailer that eight percent of all CO2 is emitted due to cement, with 36 percent of that coming from construction alone. More from IndieWire 'Wicked: For Good' Trailer: Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo Get Ready to Meet Dorothy 'Ballerina' Review: Ana de Armas Kills Her Way Through a Solid Continuation of the John Wick Franchise 'Architecton' is also produced by A24, which newly downsized its doc division. Next in the works includes 'Deathmatch,' a wrestling documentary directed by 'Talk to Me' and 'Bring Her Back' helmers, the Philippou brothers. Kossakovsky told IndieWire in 2020 that he prefers to strip away certain classic film elements to emphasize emotionality onscreen. 'I decided to eliminate music. I can make emotional film and people will cry, without manipulating them,' Kossakovsky said at the time of making 'Gunda,' which has no dialogue and is shot in natural light. Kossakovsky later said to Dutch publication Ekko that his filmography is a call to action. 'Architecton' extends his efforts to helm nature-based docs, starting with '¡Vivan las Antipodas!' and continuing with 'Aquarela' and 'Gunda.' 'It's obvious that we humans are not paying attention to what's going on,' he said. 'Thousands of mountains are disappearing before our eyes all over the world without us noticing. Humans can't see things on that scale. China has produced more cement in the last two years than the United States has in the last century. The amount of cement produced in a year is enough to create a wall one meter wide and one kilometer high, stretching around the world. Concrete may be good for basements and foundations, but we build entire buildings, giant boxes, out of cement. It's toxic, and it's not long-lasting. […] If we face that reality, we will realize that cement is among the world's most dangerous toxins. It is just as important for researchers to find a good alternative to cement as it is to find a cure for cancer.' A24 will release 'Architecton' in select theaters August 1.
