Fans of the musical Wicked know the emotional power the show has over an audience and Wicked: For Good uses that to its advantage. The conclusion of the musical is powerful, emotional, but also disappointing at times.
Wicked: For Good, like Wicked before it, is Act 2 of the show. Yes, there are new moments and there are two new songs written for the film (one for Elphaba and one for Glinda) but it is very much the second act of the show. Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) and Glinda (Ariana Grande) are divided. When the Wizard (Jeff Goldblum) used Elphaba’s power at the end of Wicked, Glinda made her choice: She went with the Wizard and Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh).
