Dorothy has reached the end of the Yellow Brick Road in the final trailer for *Wicked: For Good*.
The beloved *Wizard of Oz* characters — including *that* tornado — appear in the new preview for the upcoming *Wicked* sequel, which concludes the epic musical battle of wills and circumstance first mounted by Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) and Glinda (Ariana Grande) in director Jon M. Chu's 2024 adaptation of the Broadway musical.
Ahead of the film's debut in November, Universal unveiled the final trailer Wednesday, featuring several callbacks to *The Wizard of Oz* — including a scene that sees Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion, and Scarecrow face the the Wizard (Jeff Goldblum). "Bring me the broom of the Wicked Witch of the West," the Wizard instructs them. "So I have proof that she's dead."
There's also a scene that sees Elphaba, now exiled from her former circles, lamenting the arrival of a tornado that's seemingly controlled by Michelle Yeoh's Madame Morrible.
Elsewhere, we see Glinda receiving her iconic pink bubble for the first time, while her romance with Fiyero (Jonathan Bailey) also reaches new highs at their wedding.
Songs featured in the trailer include "Thank Goodness," "No Good Deed," and "For Good."**

*Wicked: For Good* follows Elphaba's transformation into the Wicked Witch of the West as she attempts to balance her relationship with Glinda, the Good Witch of the North, all while she's vilified by the citizens of Oz. The trailer shows the pair facing off as Glinda strikes her wand against Elphaba's broom.
Chu cautioned ** last year that *Wicked; For Good*, which is adapted from the second act of the Broadway smash, would be emotionally taxing, more so than the first film.

"If Part 1 is about choices, Part 2 is about consequences," he revealed*. *"Choices are difficult to make, but when you do make those choices, sometimes the result isn't what you expect it to be. It can be lonely, it can be hard."

Chu continued, "There's a lot of soul searching in movie 2. They're asking, 'Is this the right decision that you made?'"
