With Wicked: Part One's release date being pushed forward, it appears that production on the picture is still going strong behind the scenes. Erivo, who will play Elphaba Thropp, the character who will become the Wicked Witch of the West, previously discussed the level of focus and commitment needed for production. Erivo's dedication to the project presumably means it will be finished sooner than expected, as the release date is now one month earlier than previously planned.

Given how famous Wicked's stage adaptation remains, Wicked: Part One faces a lot of pressure, which the talented ensemble and crew appear to be up to. Despite the revised release date, the film is still more than a year away, giving plenty of time for more information to emerge. However, based on what is known about Wicked: Part One, it appears the film will be a faithful adaptation aimed at capturing the same emotion as the original book and musical.
On Twitter, director John M. Chu expressed his excitement for the newest update and shared an image of the Wicked's official logo. Wicked: Part Two will be released on December 25, 2025, as previously announced.
