Ariana Grande‘s portrayal of Glinda in Wicked has garnered a wave of praise, even earning some significant award nominations. It seems we can anticipate another impressive performance from her when the sequel premieres towards the end of 2025.
During an interview on Variety’s Awards Circuit Podcast, the multitalented performer disclosed that one particular scene in the sequel left her feeling so overwhelmed during filming that she had a profound out-of-body experience while acting it out.
The song under discussion is famously known as “For Good,” and it’s this tune that gave Part 2 its title. In this song, Ariana Grande collaborates with Cynthia Erivo, who played Elphaba in the musical, at a crucial point in the storyline. Grande has shared that significant effort was invested during production to make this performance spot-on.
She described Shooting For Good as an unprecedented experience for her. It was a prolonged and intense journey that left her feeling detached. We took footage for a whole week, and the impact of it lingered with me.
She mentioned, “I haven’t watched the final version yet as I’m uncertain if I can handle experiencing it all once more.
Absolutely! Not only does the movie version incorporate many popular tunes from the later acts of the successful Broadway and London theater productions, but it also surprises fans with several fresh compositions written by Stephen Schwartz specifically for this film.
Among the freshly composed songs, one has been specifically tailored for Grande, and she’s hinted that it will unveil a previously unseen facet of her character.
She mentioned: “During the play, this transformation occurs backstage. However, in the film, we’re granted the opportunity to witness her momentous choice that shapes her identity. It’s an honor to perform this song and be the inaugural Glinda to breathe life into it.
