Depraved and what we find out about Depraved: For Good has been a cornerstone of the 2025 film schedule buzz. Followers throughout the globe are anxiously awaiting any morsel of content material from the Broadway-turned-movie’s second installment, together with Cynthia Erivo. As a brand new and more and more excited admirer of the musical and film, I’m prepared for the November launch. Within the meantime, although, I’ll gladly take Erivo’s enthusiastic and motivated have to get a sneak peek at what’s awaiting all of us in Oz.
The Harriet actress chatted with THR about being included on the 2025 Oscar nominations record for Greatest Actress. Amongst discussing her doubtlessly making Oscar historical past, the 38-year-old divulged that she’s solely seen minimal Depraved: For Good footage. She additionally shared that the sequel is now being edited however the film’s director, Jon M. Chu, received’t let anybody get a preview of the upcoming promo content material. The Dangerous Occasions at El Royale alum added that she’s extremely impressed to go behind the scenes and see it earlier than launch day, saying:
I’ve seen the smallest quantity. However not in situ. I do know it’s being edited now, however [Jon M. Chu] received’t us see it but. I’m going to drive my manner into the modifying room. I’m not ready that lengthy to observe this film.
It’s stunning to know that even Cynthia Erivo (or presumably Ariana Grande) doesn’t, and perhaps, received’t have entry to Half 2 earlier than the remainder of the world. With Chu modifying, although, it’s comprehensible that he’s attempting his finest to maintain it below wraps. My guess is, although, having watched their dynamics and relationships by way of interviews, that the cinematic Elphaba (and doubtless Glinda) will see teasers, trailers, and, after all, the film earlier than the remainder of us. I’ll simply be over right here counting down the times and hoping for plenty of good press materials within the meantime.
Because the upcoming awards reveals proceed to fly by, Erivo has been at most, together with final night time’s Grammy’s. Each time I see her or the “Everlasting Sunshine” singer it jogs my memory that For Good is at some point nearer, and pumps me up another time. Like I discussed, I’m new to the Depraved world however so thrilled to be right here having liked The Wizard of Oz from my first watch. Studying simply how nicely this prequel has fleshed out the Frank L. Baum Hollywood traditional has made me a fair greater fan of the entire Ozian world–Cynthia Erivo and firm is a superb cherry on prime of all of it.
It’ll be an thrilling day when Depraved: For Good content material releases for followers like me. Hopefully (and certain), the motivated Cynthia Erivo and different solid members get a glance earlier than the remainder of us. And if it’s something just like the 2024 launch, and its crushing field workplace numbers, we’ll all be in for an actual deal with.
Depraved Pt. 1 is out there with VOD companies and is enjoying nationwide. It will likely be obtainable to stream quickly with an energetic Peacock subscription when it arrives.
