Published 2024-05-15
The full trailer for Wicked has dropped ahead of its release in theaters this November. Based on the incredibly successful Broadway musical, the story focuses on the lives of Elphaba and Galinda as they become friends at Shiz University and begin a journey that will take them all the way to the Emerald city, and along the way, turn them into the characters we know as the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch from the Wizard of Oz. Jessica Clemons breaks down this trailer frame-by-frame to point out all the hidden details and incredible production design that connect this movie to the musical, the 1939 film, and the original story by L. Frank Baum.

They couldn't use a pink dress until just recently bc it was a copyright/trademark thing. That's why they used blue all these years on Broadway
-
I love Dr. Dillamond being an actual goat like the book.
-
It’s so cool they posted this on Frank Baum’s birthday
-
I dont think that was the silhouette of the flying monkey's. That looked like a hand with long nails to me personally 6:34
-
9:37 wait… yes this should be the opening scene! The first song is No One Mourns the Wicked, so all the shots that look like they’re from act two (especially the ones with the witch hunting stuff) would probably be from the opening number,
-
The munchkin set and the university set was right by my house and it looked amazing!
-
We need more live action fantasy musical that arent Disney remakes.
-
Who else wants Idina to be Elphaba’s mom and Kristen as Glinda’s mom? (If those characters will be in either part)
-
2:02 Tiny correction: The book is called “Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West.” Or just “Wicked” for short. The “life and times” part is usually left off. I highly recommend it. It’s very different than the musical. I love them both, but I do like the book more. It’s much darker and covers a lot more “adult” themes.
-
I 100% hear Kristin Chenoweth!
-
Love that you can see some blue clothing, flags, and buildings in Munchkin Country . That's is something right out of the original " Wonderful Wizard of Oz" novel. Where all the major lands in Oz are color coded. Munchkin Country being blue, Quadling Country is red, Gillikin Country is purple, and Winkie Country is yellow. That is also the reason why the Yellow brick road is yellow. Its a road from Munchkin Country to Winkie County/w the Emerald City being at the center. Meaning yes; the Red Brick Road leads to Quadling Country being the home land of Glinda the Good Witch of the South!

Some scenes were filmed in my hometown in England and it was top secret what was being filmed. Ariana was in my home town and no one knew. Everyone was told it was a Bbc drama being filmed.

2:40 "NO CGI" is really just INVISIBLE CGI
-
Popular, It’s gonna be popular ❤🤗🤗🤗
-
Who else is bringing tissues to the theater " For Good".
-
the goat really stuck out to me cuz a whole part of his story is that him (and other humanoid animals) are slowly becoming less human and more animalistic. it's part of the mystery of what's happening in Oz that i'd say is a big part of the story. Really interested to see how they do it in this movie.
-
6:34 pretty sure that's just a hand's shadow, stretched out.
-
Cosmo & Wanda 😂😂😂
-
JESSICA! i'm so glad you're covering this, this is my liiifeeeee
-
In the book it's said over and over that the only way to tell apart regular animals from the intelligent Animals is by speaking to them. So I am SO glad they didn't make Dr Dillamond anthropomorphic. It's an important theme of accessibility
