The film adaptation of the beloved musical “Wicked,” telling the story of an unlikely friendship between two witches, has hit theaters.

But after the two and a half-hour movie wraps, should fans stick around for a post-credits scene?

In short, no.

After Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) belts out the ever-inspiring “Defying Gravity,” the words, “to be continued,” appear across the screen and the credits roll.

After the credits, there are no additional scenes.

The “Wicked” film adaptation has been split into two parts, the first of which was released in theaters Nov. 22.

The first movie follows the storyline and soundtrack from Act 1 of the musical. Both the movie and musical are inspired by the 1995 novel of the same name by Gregory Maguire.

“Wicked: Part 2,” which is expected to follow the plot of Act 2 and feature two new songs, will premiere in November 2025.

Both the musical and film versions of “Wicked” follow the whirlwind friendship between Elphaba and Glinda (Ariana Grande), the two witches popularized in “The Wizard of Oz” as the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch.

While there are no additional surprises at the end of the movie when it comes to the plot, fans might be surprised by one name in the credits.

In the credits of “Wicked,” star Grande opted to go by her real name, Ariana Grande-Butera.

Professionally, the 31-year-old has always publicly gone by the name Grande. Grande is the maiden name of her mother, Joan Grande. Butera is her father, Edward Butera’s, last name.

The singer opened up about the significance of using her full name during an interview on “The Streaming Service with Justin Hill” podcast.

“Technically, it’s my little girl name. It’s technically little (Ari’s) name,” Grande said in a snippet from the interview shared on host Justin Hill’s TikTok account.

“I just feel like this experience was such a homecoming for me. I feel like I came home to myself in a lot of ways through what I learned from Glinda, from Elphaba. You know, that was my name when I went to see the show when I was 10 years old,” Grande said. “It felt like a really lovely way of honoring that.”
