"I think you're getting some new songs," Yeoh teased, before joking, "I didn’t say that."

Fans of the Broadway show's beloved soundtrack won’t be disappointed as Stephen Schwartz, who wrote the music and lyrics for the stage production, has previously confirmed he composed two new songs specifically for the film.

"I have permission to say there are two new songs in the movie because the storytelling demanded it. One of them happens to be for the character of Elphaba. The other one happens to be for the character of Glinda," Schwartz told the outlet in June.

Yeoh also shared that she and her castmates have remained close long after filming wrapped.

"I was just at Hollywood Bowl [for] Cynthia," she said, referencing Cynthia Erivo's performance in "Jesus Christ Superstar." "I love her. She was so amazing."

In June, fans got a special first look at the film’s trailer, which featured Erivo and Ariana Grande reprising their roles as Elphaba and Glinda.
