You’ll be able to watch ‘Wicked’ at home before 2025 — with 3 hours of bonus material

Before the ball drops on New Year’s Eve, you’ll be able to watch Wicked, one of the biggest cinematic events of the year, in your own home.

Universal announced that Wicked will be available to either buy or rent through major digital retailers — including Apple TV, Prime Video, YouTube, Fandango Now, Comcast Xfinity, Microsoft Movies and TV, and Cox — on Dec. 31. This first home release comes with about three hours of bonus material, from deleted scenes to commentary to the singalong version of the movie.

Pre-orders for the DVD, Blu-ray, and 4k UHD — which arrive Feb. 4, 2025 — are also available now.

Stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, Hollywood’s Elphaba and Galinda/Glinda, helped announce the news alongside cast member Jeff Goldblum (the Wizard of Oz) in a new promo. “There is nowhere like home to watch Wicked,” Erivo said.

Wicked will still be playing in theaters as it makes its way to digital, however, for those still wanting to see Erivo’s “Defying Gravity” and Grande’s “Popular” on the big screen. The film, which will be the first of two parts, surpassed $392 million at the domestic box office and $580.9 million worldwide to date. Part 2, now titled Wicked: For Good, will release in theaters on Friday, Nov. 21, 2025.

Directed by Jon M. Chu and adapted from the hit Broadway musical, Wicked tells the story of how green-skinned Elphaba and her blonde, bubbly roommate at Shiz University, Galinda, became the Wicked Witch of the West and “Good Witch of the North” Glinda from The Wizard of Oz. The cast features Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Marissa Bode, Michelle Yeoh, Bowen Yang, Bronwyn James, and Peter Dinklage.
