The new Wicked trailer asks the question “Are people born wicked, or do they have wickedness thrust upon them?” – and it’s up to young witches Elphaba and Glinda to give us the answer.

Elphaba is a social pariah when she arrives at Shiz University, where her unusual green skin sets her apart from her peers. She forges an unlikely friendship with privileged and popular Glinda, but their relationship reaches a crossroads when they meet the Wonderful Wizard of Oz, setting in motion a chain of events that will have unexpected and shocking consequences for their future.

New trailer offers snippets of new versions of “Popular” and “Defying Gravity”, two of the most popular songs from the original Broadway hit. In addition to Erivo and Grande, Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Yeoh, and Bowen Yang also appear in the trailer.

Wicked is scheduled to be released on November 27, while its sequel will hit the theaters exactly a year later.

The lineup of musical acts for this year’s ceremony was unveiled last week by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. 

The list of performers includes Elton John and Cynthia Erivo, as well as other nominees for Best Original Song. They will sing “(I’m Gonna) Love Me Again” from Rocketman and “Stand Up” from Harriet, respectively. 

Returning to perform on the Oscars stage is Idina Menzel, who will sing the Best Original Song nominee “Into the Unknown” from Frozen 2. She last sang at the 2014 Oscars, belting out the Oscar-winning song “Let It Go” from Frozen.

Randy Newman will perform his Toy Story 4 song “I Can’t Let You Throw Yourself Away” and This Is Us star Chrissy Metz will perform nominee Diane Warren’s song “I’m Standing with You” from Breakthrough.

“We’re excited to have an incredible group of nominees and performers who will deliver one-of-a-kind music moments you will only see on the Oscars,” said Oscar show producers Lynette Howell Taylor and Stephanie Allain.
