Ariana Grande has recently weighed in on the title change of Wicked 2 movie, which is going to release next year.
In a new interview with Variety, the actress and singer revealed that the cast and crew knew about the title after they began filming the movie, Wicked: For Good.
“We had [‘For Good’] printed on our original scripts, the hard copies that we were originally given,” said the 31-year-old.
Ariana explained that the crew did “float around different ideas,” but the “scripts were printed with it since day one”.
“I’m glad it’s official now because we grew rather attached to it,” reflected the pop singer.
Ariana added, “It’s just the perfect title because this project has changed us for good.”
Elsewhere in the interview, the singer also opened up that she’s not going to be touring in 2025.
Ariana said, “I think my fans know that music and being on stage will always be a part of my life.”
However, the songstress clarified, “I don’t see it coming anytime soon.”
Ariana pointed out that she would like to focus on acting at the moment.
“I think the next few years, hopefully, we’ll be exploring different forms of art, and I think acting is feeling like home right now,” she stated.
Ariana thanked her fans for understanding her situation, as she remarked, “I am so grateful for the ways in which we’ve grown together over this whole journey with Wicked.”
“But music will always be a part of my life,” she said.
Meanwhile, Wicked: For Good is slated to release in theatres on November 21, 2025.
