The sequel, which is set to arrive in cinemas in December, will continue from Wicked: Part One, with Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) now on the run after being labelled as the Wicked Witch, and Glinda (Ariana Grande) a public figure controlled by the wizard, and will also feature the iconic Wizard of Oz characters Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Lion and the Scarecrow.
And because of this, audiences will never actually see Dorothy's face.
“I didn’t want to step on who you think Dorothy is in whatever story that you came into this with,” Chu added. "She is a pawn in the middle of all of it.”
The trailer for Wicked: For Good also recently hinted at a bigger part for Dorothy than she gets in the musical, with the character standing side-by-side (from behind) with the Scarecrow, the Tin Man and the Cowardly Lion.
Speaking about the significance of Dorothy’s existence, she added: “I love the little bit of shadiness that Glinda has towards Dorothy."
"So I leaned all the way into Glinda sort of having an eye roll for Dorothy whenever she has to deal with her."
