Wicked: For Good (also known as Wicked: Part Two) is a 2025 American musical fantasy film directed by Jon M. Chu and written by Winnie Holzman and Dana Fox. The sequel to Wicked (2024), it adapts the second act of the 2003 stage musical by Stephen Schwartz and Holzman, which was loosely based on Gregory Maguire's 1995 novel, a reimagining of L. Frank Baum's 1900 novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and its 1939 film adaptation. Ariana Grande,[b] Cynthia Erivo, Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Bowen Yang, Michelle Yeoh, and Jeff Goldblum return from the first film. Set in the Land of Oz before and during the events of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, the film explores the relationship between Elphaba and Glinda as they embrace their new identities as the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good.Universal Pictures and Marc Platt, who both produced the stage musical, announced the film adaptation in 2012. After a long development and multiple delays, partly due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Chu was hired as the director with Erivo and Grande cast in 2021. The adaptation was split into two parts to avoid omitting plot points and further develop the characters. Principal photography on both films began in December 2022 in England, was interrupted in July 2023 by the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike, and resumed and concluded in January 2024.Wicked: For Good premiered at the Suhai Music Hall in São Paulo on November 4, 2025, and was released in the United States on November 21. While critics responded less positively to the film than its predecessor, the film was commercially successful, grossing $253.8 million worldwide on a $150 million budget. Hosted on Acast.

This week, Tommy is joined by comedian, actor, and cultural commentator Matt Rogers, who has built an unmistakable brand with Bowen Yang through their hit podcast Las Culturistas and their ever-growing list of creative ventures. Matt opens up about the evolution of the show—from its earliest segments to the fan-favorite Las Culturistas Awards—and reveals how the duo is leveling up the ceremony for the coming year, including surprise guests and new categories in the works. He also talks about his many “side quests,” his love of pop-culture, and even shares the never-before-mentioned future of “I Don’t Think So, Honey.” Plus, Matt reflects on career shifts and the very real experience of unexpectedly soft-launching and then publicly navigating his relationship for the first time. He discusses going Instagram-official, how he and his boyfriend met, and how strange it was seeing his Instagram post go viral. Matt also discusses his upcoming Christmas tour, hot takes (like the claim that Jaws was the first girlboss), and a few revelations he’s truly “never said before.” Subscribe, rate, and leave a written review if you enjoy this conversation!

Wicked is back to defy gravity once again and rock the moviegoing population worldiwde. After the gigantic critical, financial and awards hit that was the first Wicked , Wicked: For Good aims to close out the adaptation of the stage musical. But, as most people online now, the second half of the Wicked musical is infamous for being much weaker than the first. I was shocked last year when I stepped into that screening and came out actually liking Wicked; I was not looking forward to seeing a nearly three-hour musical that was only going to tell half the story, but the performances, musical numbers and world building really won me over. I didn't think it was quite great, and scoffed a little at all the awards aclaim that followed its release... but there's no denying how much that movie struck a chord. So, with Wicked: For Good, is Jon M. Chu able to capture lightning in a bottle for a second time and deliver on what the stage musical could not? Find out in this review!Wicked: For Good:Directed by: Jon M. ChuBased on the musical stage play with music and lyrics by: Stephen SchwartzBased on the book by: Winnie Holzman; and From the novel by: Gregory MaguireScreenplay by: Winnie Holzman and Dana FoxProduced by: David Stone, Marc PlattExecutive Producers: Dana Fox, Winnie Holzman, Jared LeBoff, David Nicksay, Stephen SchwartzMusic by: John Powell, Stephen SchwartzDirector of Photography: Alice BrooksEdited by: Myron Kerstein, Tatiana S. RiegelCasting by: Tiffany Little Canfield, Bernard TelseyProduction Design by: Nathan CrowleyCostume Design by: Paul TazewellCast: Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, Jonathan Bailey, Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Yeoh, Ethan Slater, Marissa Bode, Bowen Yang, Bronwyn James, Colman DomingoSynopsis: As an angry mob rises against the Wicked Witch, Glinda and Elphaba will need to come together one final time. With their singular friendship now the fulcrum of their futures, they will need to truly see each other, with honesty and empathy, if they are to change themselves, and all of Oz, for good.

Today, on The Goggler Podcast, Bahir and Uma watch and review Wicked: For Good, the second part of Jon M. Chu’s adaptation of the acclaimed musical. Wicked: For Good is now showing in Malaysian cinemas. Elphaba, now demonized as The Wicked Witch of the West, lives in exile, hidden within the Ozian forest while continuing her fight for the freedom of Oz's silenced Animals and desperately trying to expose the truth she knows about The Wizard. Glinda, meanwhile, has become the glamorous symbol of Goodness for all of Oz, living at the palace in Emerald City and reveling in the perks of fame and popularity. Under the instruction of Madame Morrible, Glinda is deployed to serve as an effervescent comfort to Oz, reassuring the masses that all is well under the rule of The Wizard.  As Glinda's stardom expands and she prepares to marry Prince Fiyero in a spectacular Ozian wedding, she is haunted by her separation from Elphaba. She attempts to broker a conciliation between Elphaba and The Wizard, but those efforts will fail, driving Elphaba and Glinda only further apart. The aftershocks will transform Boq and Fiyero forever, and threaten the safety of Elphaba's sister, Nessarose, when a girl from Kansas comes crashing into all their lives. Wicked: For Good was directed by Jon M. Chu, and stars Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Bowen Yang, Marissa Bode, Michelle Yeoh, and Jeff Goldblum.

On this week's show, Steve, Dana, and Julia merge their consciousnesses—so to speak—to reflect on Pluribus, the latest television saga from Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan. In this unlikely body snatchers/sci-fi mashup, Rhea Seehorn plays a woman intent on saving the world from… eternal happiness? What exactly it needs saving from—or if it needs saving at all—is fodder for much discourse. Next, they turn to the ruminative and funny family drama Sentimental Value, directed by Norwegian auteur Joachim Trier and starring Stellan Skarsgård and Renate Reinsve. Finally, they take a look at a recent piece in The Ankler by Richard Rushfield crunching the numbers to reveal that, since #MeToo, troublingly few major films have been directed by women. In an exclusive Slate Plus bonus episode, it's time to party! Or rather, it's time for a reflective discussion about parties as pieces of personal culture.  Endorsements Dana: Reading up on the historical figure Jean Ross, the writer and activist who inspired both the song “These Foolish Things (Remind Me of You)” and the character Sally Bowles of Goodbye to Berlin/Cabaret notoriety. Julia: Kate McKinnon talking with Amy Poehler on Good Hang and Jennifer Lawrence talking with Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang on Las Culturistas— celebrities interviewing celebrities isn't all bad!

Imagine waking up one day and feeling completely disconnected from your own life, almost like watching a film where you're the main character, but you feel nothing. That's the reality of depersonalisation disorder, a condition as common as bipolar but tragically under-recognised.Today's guest, Nathan Dunne, knows this all too well. After a late-night swim in a freezing lake, Nathan emerged to find his identity completely gone, memories distant, emotions erased, and his sense of self shattered. In his powerful memoir, When Nothing Feels Real, Nathan's intent is to shine a light on this hidden epidemic.According to research, depersonalisation is the most misdiagnosed of all mental illnesses – it's an invisible illness, which makes it terrifying for those experiencing it. Specialists estimate that anyone has a 1 in 50 chance of developing depersonalisation and there are currently around 585,000 Australians that have been diagnosed with DPD, but being tragically misdiagnosed and misunderstood by health professionals there are likely many more affected.In this episode, Nathan shares his raw and courageous journey, from misdiagnosis and isolation to advocacy and understanding. We dive into the science, the stigma, and the very real human cost of living with DPD. If you've ever wondered what it means to lose touch with who you are, and fight your way back, this conversation is one you won't forget.What is depersonalisation disorder?Depersonalisation/derealisation disorder involves a persistent or recurring feeling of being detached from one's body or mental processes, like an outside observer of one's life (depersonalisation) and/or a feeling of being detached from one's surroundings (derealisation).How common is it?Over half a million people in Australia (2.2% of the population) and 1.3 million in the UK have experienced it, making it as prevalent as bipolar, but far more difficult to diagnose. High-profile people with depersonalisation include musicians Kid Laroi, Counting Crow's Adam Duritz and SNL's Bowen Yang.In our interview, Nathan referred to Jane Charlton 2015 article which you can find HERE. And if you would like more information about where to go for help with Depersonalisation, Nathan suggests St Vincents Hospital in Sydney and this website: thiswayup.org.auFor more information about Nathan, check out these places;-Website: https://www.nathandunne.com/ Instagram:   @nathanadunneHead to michellejcox.com for more information about the ONE QUESTION podcast, your host or today's guestsConnect with Michelle on Linkedin here:- @MichelleJCoxConnect with Michelle on Instagram here:- @michellejcoxConnect with Michelle on Facebook here - @michellejcoxAND, if you have a burning topic you'd love people to talk more about, or know someone who'd be great to come on the One Question podcast, please get in touch;- hello@michellejcox.com

We close out Pride Month this year with a brand-new film (that's technically a remake, but shhhh): The Wedding Banquet, from Fire Island director Andrew Ahn, and starring Bowen Yang, Han Gi-chan, Lily Gladstone, and Kelly Marie Tran as two gay couples who have to try to play it straight. The result is a beautiful (and hilarious) film about found family and queer identity. We'll be on a break for the rest of July, returning in August with our annual Hitchcock coverage (starting with North by Northwest!), but our patrons can continue to listen our Alfred Hitchcock Presents bonus episodes all through July! To join their number (and get some other bonuses as well) you can go to Patreon!

Happy Pride, film club listeners!

Book Vs. Movie:  For Pride Month1813's “Pride and Prejudice”  Vs. 2022's "Fire Island"June is Pride Month worldwide, and the Margos are excited to celebrate with some of the best LGBTQIA-centric books and movies. One highlight is the 2022 film *Fire Island*, directed by Andrew Ahn and written by Joel Kim Booster. This clever and heartfelt adaptation reimagines Jane Austen's *Pride and Prejudice*.  Set during a weeklong summer vacation on the iconic queer retreat of Fire Island, the story follows a close-knit group of gay friends as they navigate romance, class, and identity. Joel Kim Booster plays Noah, a modern-day Elizabeth Bennet figure, while Bowen Yang portrays Howie, who is loosely based on Jane Bennet. The aloof and wealthy Will, played by Conrad Ricamora, serves as the counterpart to Mr. Darcy.Between the classic Austen book and the modern, gay-friendly film, which did we prefer? Have a listen to find out!In this episode, the Margos discuss:The sheer number of Pride Month books we have covered and how they have changed over the last ten yearsThe history of Austen and Fire Island. The differences between the book & movie. The cast includes: Joel Kim Booster (Noah), Bowen Yang (Howie), Conrad Ricamora (Will), James Scully (Charlie), Margaret Cho (Mr. & Mrs. Bennet), Matt Rogers (Luke), and Nick Adams as Cooper. Clips Featured:“Marisa Tomei”Fire Island (2022 trailer) “I'm a doctor.”“The dance off scene”Music by Jay WadleyFollow us on the socials!Join our Patreon page “Book Vs.
