It concludes with Elphaba saying the iconic line, “I’m off to see the Wizard” before climbing atop her broom and flying into the distance.

Director Jon M Chu said: "Our heart was broken when Glinda can't make the choice that we want her to so badly at the end of movie one, and it feels empowering for Elphaba to fly away from society.

"In movie two, we get to see the consequences of those choices.

“The temperature is up."

Alongside Ervio and Grande, Wicked: For Good will star Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Yeoh and Jonathan Bailey.

The film is due to be released on 21 November.
