Jon M. Chu Says 'Wicked: For Good' Will Feature More Dorothy: "We Tread Lightly"
'Elphaba Thropp, I know you're out here,' a white gowned Glinda tells the darkness outside her home before turning to see her once best friend, still cloaked in her black witch's garb, on her balcony.
'There's no going back,' Erivo's Elphaba says as she casts spells in a hidden cave. 'This is between the Wizard and I.'
Wicked: For Good will star the green and pink duo as well as Jonathan Bailey reprising the role of Fiero, Marissa Bode reprising her role of Nessarose, Ethan Slater reprising his role of Boq and — if the soundtrack gives any clues: Jeff Goldblum returning as The Wonderful Wizard of Oz alongside Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible.

'The Wicked Witch can't elude us forever, not with Prince Fiyero and his squadron hot on her trail,' Yeoh's Morrible declares as the clip pans to Bailey's Fiyero in green and gold garb.
As Glinda puts on a swirly, sparkly crown, Elphaba tries her hand at skywriting with her broomstick, scrawling 'Our Wizard Lies' in a cloud. A snippet of 'No Good Deed' can be heard as viewers see Jeff Goldblum's Wizard of Oz working with contraptions, and Elphaba's (and Erivo's) long, manicured nails rest on a pile of bright yellow brick.
'Think of what we could do, together,' Glinda tells Elphaba in an echo from the first film. Snippets of Dorothy in her shiny silver heels and blue gingham dress can be seen throughout the clip as Glind walks down the aisle in a long white wedding train approaching Prince Fiyero.
Chu cut both films side by side in the editing process ahead of the first film's release November 22, 2024.
Some songs fans are greatly looking forward to include Elphaba and Fiyero's duet 'As Long As You're Mine,' Elphaba's 'No Good Deed' and Glinda and Elphaba's duet 'For Good, which can also be heard in the trailer.

Love Island USA Season 7 Claims Over 1 Billion Minutes Streamed
is taking over our lives yet another summer, and we can't be mad about it. Season 7 is riding the high of last year's fan-favorite group of Islanders, and they had big shoes to fill. Thankfully, the singles came to Fiji with a mission — make connections and stir up a little drama. From Huda Mustafa and Jeremiah Brown's whirlwind relationship to Ace Greene and Amaya Espinal's frenemy-ship, there's been a lot to take in so far. Apparently, fans are so obsessed with Love Island that we're watching a record-breaking amount of episodes. In a span of less than a week, Love Island USA had 1.2 billion minutes streamed across the nine episodes available, Deadline reports. Luminate looked at streaming minutes from June 6 to 12 to determine the total. It's the second most-watched streaming show on TV. So, fans are obsessing over tuning in to see what tricks Ariana Madix has up her sleeves next. That definitely makes us feel better about our TV watching habits. It's hard to believe that fans have already watched a billion minutes, and the season hasn't even been on for three weeks yet. That means thousands of people have witnessed antics like Taylor Williams bursting out of his straps after being seduced by Olandria Carthen. It's also a whole lot of people who have seen Huda crash out. Yikes. It took Season 6 nearly a month to crack a billion minutes viewed, so Season 7 is off to a strong start. Surely, with the way things are going in the villa these days, it won't take us long to rack up another billion minutes on this season alone. Love Island USA Season 7 is available to stream on Peacock. TELL US – ARE YOU SURPRISED THAT SO MANY PEOPLE ARE TUNING INTO LOVE ISLAND SEASON 7? DO YOU PREFER SEASON 6 OR 7 OF THE SHOW SO FAR? The post Love Island USA Season 7 Claims Over 1 Billion Minutes Streamed appeared first on Reality Tea.

‘The Bear' Season 4: The plot, returning cast members, release date and more. Where Carmy, Sydney and the restaurant go from here.
'Every second counts,' and that's made no clearer than on FX's The Bear. Returning on June 25, the Emmy-winning series will transport audiences back to the chaotic fine dining restaurant helmed by tortured culinary genius Carmy Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White). FX quietly renewed the series for a fourth season in March 2024. The latest season was filmed back-to-back with season 3, Deadline reported. Ahead, we break down everything you need to know before The Bear returns. The season three finale ends with a foreboding 'to be continued' on the screen. In the final scene of the season, Carmy looks down at his phone to see that the Chicago Tribune review of his restaurant has posted — and that he has a number of missed calls from both Cicero (Oliver Platt) and the Computer (Brian Koppelman). We don't get a close enough look at the review to fully know whether it's positive or negative, though fans have tried to decipher what it says. Carmy angrily exclaims 'motherf***er' after reading it — if that's any sort of indication. And if the review is bad, Cicero will stop funding the restaurant. Sydney (Ayo Edebiri), meanwhile, has a tough decision to make: Will she sign the partnership agreement and stick it out with the Bear or jump ship and take up former Ever chef Adam Shapiro's offer as his new chef de cuisine? Carmy's strict list of non-negotiables and toxic pursuit of culinary excellence could be enough reason for Sydney to cut ties with him and start new elsewhere. In the Season 4 trailer, Carmy seems eager to turn his attitude and the restaurant's morale around, though it may be too late. 'Look, we could do this. We could take care of people. We could make it calm. We could make it delicious. We could make people happy,' Carmy says. Thankfully, we won't have to wait for weekly episode drops. All 10 episodes of the fourth season will be available to stream on Hulu starting June 25 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT. It wouldn't be The Bear without the group of chefs — or Jeffs — responsible for running it. Fans can rest assured that the entire kitchen staff, including the fan favorites below, are reprising their starring roles: Jeremy Allen White (Carmen 'Carmy' Berzatto) Ayo Edebiri (Sydney Adamu) Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Richard 'Richie' Jerimovich) Liza Colón-Zayas (Tina Marrero) Lionel Boyce (Marcus) Abby Elliott (Natalie 'Sugar' Berzatto) Matty Matheson (Neil Fak) While there's no word on whether or not we'll be meeting any new faces, we will be reunited with familiar ones, like Donna (Jamie Lee Curtis), the volatile, unstable matriarch of the Berzatto family. Platt as Cicero and Molly Gordon as Claire Dunlap will also be returning this season. The Bear has previously featured a noteworthy roster of guest stars like John Cena as Sammy Fak and Josh Hartnett as the fiancé of Richie's ex-wife Tiff (Gillian Jacobs), who were both introduced in the third season. Jon Bernthal, beloved for his role as Carmy and Sugar's big brother who passed away, and Joel McHale as David Fields, Carmy's abusive old boss from New York, also appear in flashbacks throughout the series. Will Poulter as chef Luca and Olivia Colman as chef Terry emerged as fan favorites during the show's second season. Neither has outright confirmed they're returning, but Poulter's made his adoration of the show common knowledge. 'I really hope so,' Poulter told the Los Angeles Times in April of whether he'd be returning to The Bear. 'I love that show so much. The fact I get to be in it is crazy. When I'm on that set, I'm like, 'Oh, they've let a fan on set.' I literally feel like a competition winner.' The cast has remained pretty mum on details surrounding the Emmy-winning series' fourth season. What we do know, though, is that Edebiri, who made her directorial debut with Season 3, Episode 6's 'Napkins' on The Bear, also cowrote an episode for Season 4 with Boyce. 'Each season I've gotten to do different things,' Edebiri told actor-director Ramy Youssef for Cultured magazine. 'Last season I directed for the first time and this season I've written an episode. It's been a minute since I've written for TV, and I've learned so much since the last time — even something as simple as knowing what it's like to shoot an overnight. So, my episode will be taking place during the day.'
