Get ready to sparkle, Wicked fans! Kristin Chenoweth, the original Glinda, is teasing the possibility of another magical surprise. In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Chenoweth playfully hinted at a potential return to Oz alongside her longtime friend and former co-star, Idina Menzel (Elphaba), for a cameo in the upcoming Wicked film adaptation.

For those who don’t remember, Chenoweth and Menzel famously delighted audiences with surprise cameos as citizens of the Emerald City in the first part of the Wicked movie, released in late 2023. This sweet nod to the Broadway phenomenon, where they originated their iconic roles, had fans buzzing with excitement.

Now, with the second part of the Wicked film, Wicked: For Good, just around the corner, the question on everyone's mind is: will Glinda and Elphaba grace the screen once again? Chenoweth, known for her mischievous charm, remained delightfully vague, only offering a knowing smile and a playful “You’ll have to wait and see!”

While Ariana Grande has taken on the role of Glinda and Cynthia Erivo is dazzling as Elphaba in the film adaptation, the legacy and magic of Chenoweth and Menzel’s performances remain firmly etched in the hearts of Wicked enthusiasts worldwide. Their Broadway run was legendary, and the cameo in the first film was a brilliant way to honour their contribution.

The anticipation for Wicked: For Good is already sky-high, with fans eager to see how the story of Elphaba and Glinda concludes on the big screen. The addition of Chenoweth and Menzel, even in a small capacity, would undoubtedly send shockwaves of joy through the Wicked fandom.

So, keep your eyes peeled and your hopes high! A reunion of the original Glinda and Elphaba could be just what Wicked: For Good needs to truly reach legendary status. We'll be watching closely for any further clues!
