Are you going to see “Wicked: For Good” once it comes to theaters on November 21? There’s a good chance the answer to that is “Yes!” If you’re not a fan of the original hit play, the 2024 movie, or any of the songs associated with the franchise, then your spouse or significant other probably is—and will drag you to the sequel with them. Lexus will be at the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City for the green carpet premiere of the highly anticipated second (and final) installment in the Wicked film series with the Wicked: For Good Karaoke LX.
The 2024 film “Wicked,” a prequel to 1939’s “The Wizard of Oz,” told the story of how Elphaba, a young lady with off-putting emerald green skin (played by Cynthia Erivo), and the popular Galinda (later, Glinda, played by Ariana Grande), met at Shiz University in the Land of Oz. Originally enemies, they eventually become great friends. Elphaba makes a horrible discovery during an encounter with The Wizard of Oz (Jeff Goldblum) and Shiz’s Dean of Sorcery Studies, Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh), which causes her to flee Oz alone. Through Morrible’s use of propaganda, Elphaba is labeled the “Wicked Witch of the West.” The upcoming sequel is about Elphaba’s quest to show Oz the horrible truth about The Wizard, and Glinda’s efforts to “to serve as an effervescent comfort to Oz, reassuring the masses that all is well under the rule of The Wizard,” according to the movie’s official website. After a girl from Kansas comes crashing into Oz (care to guess her name?), an angry mob rises up against the Wicked Witch of the West, forcing Elphaba and Glinda to make important decisions for each other, themselves, and Oz.
Elphaba’s and Glinda’s respective personalities are clearly represented in the Karaoke’s LX’s two-tone color scheme of emerald green and pink. Both sides of the off-roader feature gold accents, which include the grille, symbols on the wrap, mirror caps, window trim, and door handles, as well as gold wheels.
Just like the exterior, the cabin is divided into green and pink halves—colors that were not only used for the mood lighting but also the upholstery, too. In the second row, right next to the screens that show “Wicked,” are two microphones (one green, the other pink, of course) that will allow premiere attendees to belt out their favorite songs from the movie.
If that goes anything like the film, some of those tunes will be sung as duets and some will be performed as duels.
