Seeing as the way it’ll be a 12 months because the first movie, we thought it greatest to offer you some fast info of issues you might want to bear in mind earlier than you see half two.

Elphaba Wasn’t Actually Evil

When you’ll bear in mind from the primary movie, Elphaba’s title of being a “depraved witch” was fully unjustified. Not solely was she not evil, she was really standing up for a marginalized group of her neighborhood—(the animals who lived in concord with them)—and was keen to buck up in opposition to the powers that be so as to take action. When Elphaba wouldn’t go together with the Wizard (Jeff Goldblum) and her faculty professor Madam Morrible’s (Michelle Yeoh) plans to additional oppress them, she was branded as depraved being who was too highly effective and wanted to be managed and extinguished. This is the reason she ended up fleeing to the West in try to hunt refuge and work out her subsequent steps.

The Wiz Is a Fraud and However Additionally Might Be Tied To Elphaba in An Surprising Means

As you very effectively know by now (because of “The Wizard of Oz”), the Wizard is nothing greater than a person with pretend powers and an excellent faker persona. However what you most likely didn;t decide up on all the best way is that there’s some tacit connection between him and Elphaba. I imply, why else would have such an affinity in direction of her and sing a music about how a lot he desires to be near her and that her manner of shifting all through the world looks like she could possibly be a daughter to him. We don’t need to say an excessive amount of however preserve this little nugget at the back of your thoughts.

When you’ll bear in mind, within the very opening scene in “Depraved” because the digicam panned throughout the land of Oz, there was a fast look at Dorothy from Kansas and her new friends: Tinman, Scarecrow and the Cowardly Lion. It was second that should you blink you may miss it, however it was foreshadowing to one of many different storylines that’ll be current within the sequel movie. When you’ve seen the unique Wizard of Oz, then you know the way issues play out. However it’ll be fascinating to see how and when this gang makes enters into the timeline and the way deeply they’ll be linked to Elphaba and Glinda.

Glinda Was Complicit and Not Elphaba’s Experience or Die Pal

On the finish of “Depraved,” we noticed Elphaba fly off into the sky, leaving her “good” good friend Glinda again within the Emerald Metropolis. However as we broke it right down to you shortly after the film got here out, we must always’ve anticipated Glinda to not be down with Elphie like that as a result of she was solely actually loyal to herself and her picture. Positive, you may make the argument that she supported what Elphaba was attempting to do in concept, however in practicality, she didn’t need to rock the boat or do something to jeopardize her needs. We’ll see how this continues to unfold now that her former bestie is exiled from the city and what she’ll do on account of it within the second movie.

Elphaba’s Sister Nessarose’s Story Will Increase In a Main Means

You bear in mind how Elphaba’s disabled sister Nessarose was lowkey jealous anytime her massive sister obtained recognition for utilizing her powers? Yeah, that’s going to play a task in how their storyline develops on this second iteration–particularly whenever you notice that someplace alongside the best way, Nessarose will get a home dropped on her. (That’s not a spoiler, that’s actually in “The Wizard of Oz.” If Elphaba is the Depraved Witch of the West, what would that make her sister? Precisely.)

Now if we are saying the rest, we’ll get into spoiler territory so make sure you take a look at the trailer above and mark your calendars for “Depraved For Good” when it arrives in theaters on November 21.
