Followers are desperate to see how that acclaimed film does on the Oscars, and if it joins the ranks of musicals which have received Finest Image. However the sequel For Good is arriving this November, and actor Jonathan Bailey just lately teased the “tonal shift” of the second film.

The forged of Depraved will get to play wildly totally different model of their characters, because of the time leap that sometimes occurs in the course of the present’s intermission. Bailey spoke to IndieWire about this modification, particularly for Cynthia Erivo’s Elphaba. In his phrases:
Is it November but? It appears like followers are in for a tricky wait earlier than Depraved: For Good hits theaters, and completes the beloved story for the large display screen. And the Bridgerton actor is clearly a fan of the place Cynthia Erivo is ready to carry the film’s protagonist within the latter half of her story. Excuse me whereas I’m going re-watch the primary film for the twelfth time.
Relatively than an offbeat musical, Depraved is a world sensation that people know backwards and forwards. The time leap complicates all of the character’s relationships, and so they go from college students to adults. And for Elphaba, that normally means years of flying round Ozsaving animals from The Wizard.
Regardless of how a lot we all know, there are numerous questions on Depraved: For Good. Moviegoers are curious concerning the two new songs that’ll be debuting, and what number of Wizard of Ozconnections will probably be current. Broadway superfans like myself are involved concerning the tune “The Depraved Witch of The East” lastly getting its due after being noticeably lacking from the Unique Broadway Forged Recording.
Jonathan Bailey’s Fiyero is in the midst of a love triangle all through Depraved, which permits him to share scenes with each Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo. The entire characters have attention-grabbing storylines all through the second half of the stage musical, and it ought to be thrilling to see it on the large display screen. And since Jon M. Chu filmed each Depraved motion pictures on the identical time, the forged bought to essentially immerse themselves on the earth of Oz.
All will probably be revealed when Depraved: For Good hits heaters on November twenty first. Whereas we not-so-patiently wait (and hearken to the soundtrack), take a look at the 2025 film launch dates.
