The movie musical Wicked is hitting theaters on Nov. 22, and it’s been announced that the soundtrack will be released the same day and is currently available for preorder.
Wicked: The Soundtrack features 11 tracks, seven of which feature Ariana in her role as Glinda, including the character's signature number, "Popular." Other well-known songs include "Defying Gravity," sung by Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, and "Dancing Through Life," sung by Ari, Jonathan Bailey, Cynthia, Ari's boyfriend and co-star Ethan Slater and Marissa Bode.
Because this is only part one of Wicked, the songs from the second act of the musical aren't included, including another well-known tune, "For Good." Those will be featured in Wicked Part Two, set for release Nov. 21, 2025.
The album is available on CD in both a standard version, and versions exclusive to Target and Barnes & Noble. On vinyl, there's a two-LP picture disc, a standard black vinyl version and a pink-and-green vinyl version exclusive to Target.
