Why ‘Wicked: For Good’s’ Friendship Between Glinda and Elphaba Resonates Deeply for Jon M. Chu and His Collaborators

“Wicked” and its sequel, “Wicked: For Good,” might be two movies, but in Jon M. Chu’s mind “it was just part of one giant arc.”

With “Wicked: For Good” set to be released on Nov. 21, Chu explained how the movie follows Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) and Glinda (Ariana Grande) growing in their complicated relationship.

Chu was speaking with Variety’s senior artisans editor Jazz Tangcay at the Middleburg Film Festival, where he was honored alongside his go-to cinematographer Alice Brooks and editor Myron Kerstein with the Creative Collaborators Award.
