Warning: Wicked spoilers ahead…but, like, only if you've never seen The Wizard of Oz.
Musical movie Wicked, starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, is undoubtedly one of the biggest cinematic events of the year, making us even more excited for the second half of Wicked Part Two–which is due for release in November 2025.
Before part two rolls around, we need to know: Who will play Wizard of Oz star and protagonist Dorothy? After all, Wicked's entire story was inspired by events in The Wizard of Oz, and Dorothy plays a key part in the “demise” of Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West.
But we're getting ahead of ourvelves. In Wicked part one we got a very brief glimpse of Dorothy and co—the Tin Man, the Lion and the Scarecrow—as the movie introduced us to Munchkinland, Oz, and the Yellow Brick Road, which we see our favourite Oz characters embarking down.
So who will play Dorothy in Wicked part two, if anyone?
Dorothy's arrival in Oz sadly leads to the death of Elpahaba's sister Nessarose, the “Wicked Witch of the East.” In fact, Dorothy's house lands on her, and the young girl even steals the witch's ruby red slippers in the original film–no wonder Elphaba wants revenge, really.
