For Good' did not, for many, equal the sum of its parts, many of its parts were pretty spectacular and it wouldn’t have killed the academy to acknowledge that with a few Oscar nominations.

In today's Oscar nominations, the biggest shock was that sequel Wicked: For Good, starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, earned zero nods – despite its predecessor earning 10.

Arguably, the biggest and most shocking snub for Wicked: For Good is Ariana Grande. She had been picking up nominations, including a 2026 Golden Globe nod, for her performance as Glinda in Act 2 of this beloved musical. She was also the highlight of the movie for many, as my Wicked: For Good review notes. So, yes, this was a shocker.

No Rest for the Wicked has introduced their new Together coop update, offering a new level of play for fans of this budding early access title.

Last year, Wicked was the most-streamed title of 2025, with 8.4 billion minutes watched across Peacock and Prime Video, surpassing KPop Demon Hunters and Moana 2.
