There is no official confirmation of a Wicked 3 movie yet, but the studio and creatives are openly talking about continuing the franchise, so a third film or spinoff is being seriously explored, not ruled out.

Where things stand now

  • The two-part film adaptation consists of Wicked (2024) and Wicked: For Good (2025), which together complete Elphaba and Glinda’s main Broadway storyline.
  • As of late 2025, Universal has not announced a green-lit Wicked 3 with a title, release date, or production start.

Hints a Wicked 3 could happen

  • A recent industry guide notes there is no official release date or renewal yet, but suggests that if the series continues, the earliest window would likely be several years after Wicked: For Good (so not before the later 2020s).
  • Universal’s chief marketing officer said the studio feels a “responsibility” to continue in this universe because of the films’ success and strong fanbase, strongly implying more Oz stories are being actively considered.

What the cast and director have said

  • Director Jon M. Chu has said he was excited to “complete the story” in two movies but also mentioned there are “a lot of ideas” for what could come next, leaving the door open rather than closing it.
  • Coverage of cast and crew comments frames a third movie as possible, especially in the form of a spinoff or side-story, rather than a direct continuation of the exact Broadway plot.

Box office and franchise logic

  • Wicked (2024) became a very high-grossing Broadway adaptation, earning around three-quarters of a billion dollars worldwide, with the sequel opening strongly as well.
  • Given that performance, analysts and trade outlets say all signs point to Universal at least developing ideas for a third film or spinoff, even if nothing is officially announced yet.

So, is there going to be a Wicked 3?

For now the honest answer is:

  • Official status: No confirmed Wicked 3 movie yet.
  • Behind the scenes: The studio is openly exploring ways to expand the Oz universe, and public comments make a continuation sound likely , but fans still have to wait for a formal announcement.
