10 details from the Wicked: For Good trailer you might’ve missed

Our first real look at Wicked: For Good dropped on June 4, and the trailer is packed with plenty of small Easter eggs and teasers. There are lots of blink and you'll miss them moments, so if you're eager to venture back into the magical world of Oz, you may want to know about them. We still have quite a way to go before the movie releases on November 21, so the trailer is all we've got to keep us busy until then. If you want to ensure you caught all the teasers sprinkled throughout it, here are 10 details you may have missed in the Wicked: For Good trailer. Spoiler warning: There are some spoilers for Wicked: For Good ahead based on the Broadway and book versions of Wicked, as many hints that appear in the trailer foreshadow what's to come.

Matching skies Image via Universal Pictures Image via Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer At around 0:53 in the trailer, Glinda and the residents of Munchkinland look up in horror as Elphaba draws the message "Our Wizard lies" in the sky. She seems to enjoy using this method of communication, as she does the same thing in The Wizard of Oz. While Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Cowardly Lion, and the Tin Man are in Oz during The Wizard of Oz, Elphaba paints the message "Surrender Dorothy" in the sky. The use of another sky message in Wicked: For Good is a fun callback to this moment. 9. Madame Morrible's storm Image via Universal Pictures Madame Morrible is cooking up a massive storm, and it's the very same storm that lands Dorothy in Oz during the events of The Wizard of Oz. You can spot her using her weather magic, which she showed off frequently during the first Wicked, to brew a massive tornado that ultimately picks up Dorothy from Kansas at around 0:36 in the trailer. 8. Fiyero's uniform Images via Universal Pictures We're entering big spoiler territory with this one, so if you don't want one of the bigger plot twists spoiled, you may want to skip to the next one. Now that you've been warned, let's get into it. The Wicked: For Good trailer subtly teases Fiyero's transformation into the Scarecrow. He's got a striking green and gold uniform on throughout it, and this same uniform can be spotted on the Scarecrow when Dorothy and the group are meeting with the Wizard. The wedding outfit variant of the uniform shown at 1:32 also has some embroidery of small pieces of wheat on it, just like one of the shirts he wore during Wicked did. 7. Glinda joins Wonderful Image via Universal Pictures "Wonderful" is the song sung by the Wizard and Elphaba as he tries to get her back on his side during the Broadway adaptation, and a few glimpses of this scene are featured in the trailer. The duo is surprisingly joined by Glinda, which is an intriguing change that differs from the usual performance of this song. Glinda being there is a really fitting change, though, as it makes a lot more sense that Elphaba would be willing to hear the Wizard out if Glinda, the person she trusts most, is there too. 6. Off to see the Wizard Image via Universal Pictures At 2:36, Elphaba says, "I'm off to see the Wizard," another fun nod to The Wizard of Oz. Dorothy and her friends sing a song called "We're Off to See the Wizard" in the other film, which is what's referenced here. 5. Possible Glinda magic Image via Universal Pictures Glinda doesn't have a whole lot of magical abilities, and is never shown really harnessing much power and prowess outside of her wand and bubble, but there's an intriguing scene that might mean Wicked: For Good will change this. Starting at 1:41, Elphaba and Glinda float around a pink, magical, starry room. It's not a scene I can place from the books or the Broadway show, so whatever is going on here seems to be a new addition. Since it's all pink and stars, it screams Glinda to me, and I'm curious if we might get to see her actually harness magic. 4. Glinda's dress Images via Universal Pictures/Wicked the Musical In the first Wicked, pink was the main color we saw Glinda in. Some of her outfits had slight accents of other colors, like her Ozdust dress with hints of orange or her first day uniform with some light blue, but pink was her primary palette for the majority of the film. Wicked: For Good is giving her a fresh style with a stunning gown that's primarily blue with some slight pink accents. This dress seems like a nod to the one worn by Glinda in the Broadway version of the show, as her dress on stage is always bright blue. 3. Flashbacks Image via Universal Pictures There are several scenes throughout that clearly happened in the past, but we didn't get to see them in the first part of Wicked, so the trailer hints at plenty of flashback moments. One such moment is Glinda and Elphaba relaxing in a field together back when they were at Shiz. 2.

2. Elphaba's new song

While Glinda is spinning around at around 0:14, Elphaba sings a note that's not in any of the known songs featured in the Broadway version of Wicked. She could just be adding on to one of the existing songs, but since director John. M Chu confirmed Elphaba and Glinda both have new songs, we just may have heard a hint of one of them here.

1. Glinda and Fiyero's wedding

There's no wedding between Glinda and Fiyero in the Wicked book or Broadway play, but it seems to be a big part of Wicked: For Good. You can spot Glinda walking down the aisle to Fiyero at 1:30. It'll be interesting to see whether they actually get married, considering Fiyero is actually in love with Elphaba and (spoiler warning) the pair ultimately ends up together in the Broadway version of Wicked.
