Ariana Grande may be hinting that the 'Wicked' universe has room to grow. The 32-year-old singer and actress sparked speculation after posting an Instagram video recently featuring a panel discussion with her 'Wicked: For Good' co-star Cynthia Erivo.
Ariana Grande on 'Wicked' Third Instalment
In the clip, Ariana Grande joked that talk of a "farewell tour" reminded her of Cher, suggesting that there is always potential for more to come and that the cast doesn't appear to be disappearing anytime soon. Her playful comment prompted the panel's moderator to ask whether she had just confirmed a third 'Wicked' movie.
Grande, Erivo, and the audience reacted with laughter before she clarified that she wasn't making any official announcement.

Although Universal Pictures has not announced plans for any additional 'Wicked' films beyond 'Wicked: For Good,' there is still plenty of source material that could inspire future instalments.
Author L. Frank Baum wrote 14 books in the Oz series, while Gregory Maguire's 1995 novel 'Wicked'—the basis for the film adaptations—offers its own reimagined narrative threads that could be explored further.
Ariana Grande also spoke candidly about how the filmmaking experience helped her reconnect with her artistic passion. She explained that working on 'Wicked' made her feel creatively safe again and allowed her to feel truly seen. She added that sharing this journey with Cynthia Erivo, whom she now considers a lifelong sister, was one of the most meaningful gifts of her career.
'Wicked: For Good' arrives in theatres on 21st November.
