Why watch?

Cynthia Erivo's voice as Elphaba — the way she belts those songs makes every moment feel like real drama, especially when her character starts uncovering what's actually happening to her. Jon M. Chu shoots the musical numbers like full fantasy spectacles, not just close-ups on faces but sweeping across entire landscapes. Erivo and Ariana Grande actually have chemistry, so their friendship feels genuine even with all the witches and magic happening around them.

Who is it for?

Watch this on a weekend evening when you want something grand but emotionally grounded — big musical numbers but it stays intimate between the characters. If you liked Barbie or Les Misérables, you'll vibe with this. Gets darker in the second half, but nothing graphic — safe for teens and up.

If you loved how Jon M. Chu turned the stage musical into a visually lush, song-filled spectacle with real emotional weight, check out Cinderella directed by Kay Jarvis — it does something similar with a classic story, leaning into the theatricality and color. And if you connected with how the film explores a complicated friendship between two women against a magical backdrop, Into the Woods captures that same blend of wonder and darkness, though it takes things in a darker, more twisted direction.

Classic overview

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.

Glinda and Elphaba are back together for one final time, and this time the fate of all of Oz hangs in the balance. Jon M. Chu directs the second half of the Wicked saga with the same eye for massive musical numbers that made the first film feel like watching a Broadway production explode across a screen. Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande have genuine chemistry that sells every moment of tension and tenderness between these two witches, while Jeff Goldblum returns as the Wizard with even more chaos. If you loved the first Wicked film or you're into character-driven fantasy epics like Into the Woods or Les Misérables, this is what you're here for.
