Wicked: For Good is hitting digital December 30 ahead of a physical release January 20, and there are enough extras to fill a bubble—or maybe even that creepy old castle your family owns but is just sitting there empty, in case you know a witch who needs a hideout.
Wicked: For Good‘s home release includes two versions of the movie—one of which is the sing-along version, so you can belt out the tunes in your own living room—plus over an hour of bonus features, including making-of featurettes and deleted scenes.
