It felt like the film was heavy handedly romanticising the school days of characters to get a cheap reaction from us. But now, a scene from <a href=\"https:\/\/thetab.com\/tag\/wicked\">Wicked<\/a> was apparently deleted and would have given us a lot of context &#8211; especially regarding these flashback moments in For Good and the script has surfaced online.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>This context would have been wonderful<\/strong><\/h4>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">The way this picture and all the flashbacks implied a much deeper friendship between the entire group that just doesn\u2019t exist in the text of the film <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/suLGmvWj88\">https:\/\/t.co\/suLGmvWj88<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Eggsquisite Armant\u00e8 M.F.A \u2764\ufe0f\u200d\ud83d\udd25 (@ExquisiteWill) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ExquisiteWill\/status\/1992457326054563923?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 23, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h4><strong><script src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" async=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>After a tweet calling out the fact Wicked For Good really implies a much deeper friendship between all the Shia lot than we ever saw in the first film, one Wicked fan brought up the script that showed a deleted scene that would have mad everything a lot more resonant with fans.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">There was a whole friendship montage that got deleted out of the first movie, but was still in the screenplay <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sIw5X9qvyM\">pic.twitter.com\/sIw5X9qvyM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 a \u270c\ud83c\udffe (@getwelllaustin) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/getwelllaustin\/status\/1992634611277680940?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 23, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" async=\"\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>In it, which is a scene that was intended for the first Wicked movie, we would have seen a friendship montage of the five hanging out and doing normal friendship bonding things as a group which we never ended up seeing.
