Background

Wicked: For Good soared to $150 million in its opening weekend across the U.S. and Canada, shattering the record for a Broadway musical adaptation and cementing its place among the highest-grossing movie musicals of all time, the studio announced.

Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo reprise their roles as Glinda and Elphaba, the most powerful figures in Oz, whose unbreakable bond promises to transform them forever.

The film picks up where last year’s Wicked left off, which dazzled audiences with a $114 million domestic debut during the pre-Thanksgiving weekend.
