Among the extra material highlights are the NBC special titledDefying Gravity: The Curtain Rises on Wicked, a behind-the-scenes look aptly titled “Making Wicked,” two podcast episodes featuringWickeddirector Jon M. Chu and director of photography Alice Brooks, and multiple deleted and extended scenes.
Where Can I Watch Wicked?
Unfortunately for some, theWickedPeacock release date arrives nearly 3 weeks after the 2025 Academy Awards ceremony. Some cinephiles make it a point to watch as many Oscar nominees as possible ahead of the ceremony, particularly the Best Picture contenders, of whichWickedis one of 10. Peacock arguably offered the most affordable way to watchWicked, but those hoping to watch the film for the first time before the Oscars must choose between the more costly digital or physical copy options. Of course,Wickedis still playing in many theaters, where an epic musical fantasy film is perhaps worth the extra cost of admission.
Still, the Peacock release will be welcomed news for those waiting forthe endlessly quotableWickedto hit streaming. While most diehardWickedfans have already seen the film, in some instances on more than one occasion, another viewing option gives more people the opportunity to watch the celebrated film, which should give everyone a reason to rejoicify.
Wickedwill be available to stream on Peacock on June 06, 2025, and is currently available to purchase on digital platforms.
