Ariana Grande BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Ariana Grande has been making headlines this week with major developments for her upcoming film "Wicked: For Good." Director Jon M. Chu confirmed on June 4th that both Grande and co-star Cynthia Erivo will each have a brand new song in the sequel, composed by Stephen Schwartz who wrote the original Broadway music and lyrics.

The first teaser for "Wicked: For Good" dropped on June 3rd, showing Grande's dramatic transformation as Glinda. She's traded her Shiz University uniform and pink bubble dress from the first film for an elaborate multi-colored ballgown and tiara, signifying her character's evolution into the princess of Oz. The full trailer for the film is set to release today (June 4th), building anticipation for the November 21, 2025 premiere.

In political activism, Grande signed an open letter on June 2nd supporting federal funding for LGBTQ+ initiatives, demonstrating her continued advocacy work.

For fans hoping to see Grande perform live, there's disappointing news. Republic Records recently confirmed there are "no plans for a tour next year," dispelling rumors that emerged when Ticketmaster erroneously listed 15 events under her name. Grande is focusing on her acting career, particularly the "Wicked" films, rather than touring.

On the music front, Grande's "Eternal Sunshine Deluxe: Brighter Days Ahead" continues performing well after its recent release. While she's been actively promoting the "Wicked" franchise, she notably skipped the 2025 Met Gala on May 5th, despite her "Wicked" co-stars Cynthia Erivo and Jeff Goldblum attending.

Grande has established herself as a multifaceted entertainer, balancing her music career with her acting commitments. Her absence from touring in 2025 suggests she's prioritizing the "Wicked" franchise, with the sequel positioning her for continued success in Hollywood. As "Wicked: For Good" approaches its release date, expect to see more of Grande in promotional appearances and interviews, showcasing her evolution from pop star to leading actress in one of the year's most anticipated films.
