Ariana Grande opens up on possibility of ‘Wicked 3’

Ariana Grande has sparked speculation about the possibility of a third installment in the ‘Wicked’ film series during a recent panel discussion with her co-star Cynthia Erivo. The duo, who star in the upcoming ‘Wicked: For Good,’ shared their emotional journey and deep connection to the project. Grande humorously referenced Cher’s infamous ‘farewell tours,’ suggesting that the story of ‘Wicked’ might not be over just yet. ‘No one’s going anywhere,’ she quipped, hinting at the potential for future adaptations. While Universal Studios has not officially announced a third film, the rich source material from L. Frank Baum’s ‘Oz’ series leaves ample room for expansion. Grande expressed her relief and joy at finally bringing her character, Glinda, to life on the big screen, describing the experience as transformative. She also reflected on her renewed passion for acting and the profound bond she shares with Erivo, calling their collaboration ‘the greatest gift of my life.’ Fans of the franchise are left eagerly anticipating what the future holds for ‘Wicked.’
