Rubens Wide is the font Google names for the Wicked logo, from the OPTI library of Castcraft Software. Its license does not let it be passed on and its company is long defunct, so it is not given here. It is sold, so it is not ours to give away.

A Google result for this search says the font used for Wicked is very similar to Rubens Wide, from the OPTI library of Castcraft Software, and FontBolt says the movie logo looks like Widow by FG Studios. Both are lookalikes: neither source says it is the logo’s own font. The result that names Rubens Wide adds a designer, Arthur Baker, and the year 1989, while Luc Devroye’s type index says Rubens itself is John F. Cumming’s design of 1881, so the sources do not agree on who drew it.
Rubens Wide cannot be given here. Its file carries a 1990–1991 copyright of Castcraft Software, which sold its type library on a CD-ROM at 200 USD and is long defunct, whatever the result that promises a free download says. Sancreek, drawn by Vernon Adams, keeps those tall flared letters, and its SIL Open Font License makes it free for any use. That makes it the font you get here.
Rubens Wide is tall and heavy, with flared ends to its strokes and a long tail on the k. befonts says its own Wicked Font evokes the art nouveau look of the Land of Oz, and one 2012 forum thread reads the logo’s W as a larger lowercase letter with smaller capitals after it. The colors come from the story: Elphaba is green, her city is the Emerald City, and the pink belongs to Glinda.
Solid on the Logo background draws your words in emerald green on a dark green-black ground, like a Wicked title in a dim theater. Glow turns the green into stage light for a poster, Outline draws thin green letters for a pink Glinda page, and Paper or Clear leave the letters ready to print or to sit on top of a picture.

Sancreek, the font given here, may be used in any project under its SIL Open Font License. Rubens Wide, the font Google names for the logo, is not free: its copyright notice and Luc Devroye’s index describe a paid CD-ROM font, whatever one result says about a free download.
Rubens Wide is the match Google gives, and FontBolt names Widow by FG Studios, which it describes as free for personal use only. Of the free fonts we compared, Sancreek is the closest for letters that flare like Rubens Wide’s, and Anton, by Vernon Adams, is the plainer, narrower choice.
No: Rubens Wide, the font Google names for the logo, is upright and heavy, not a script. The field above this text is the Wicked font generator people look for: type your words, see them in emerald Wicked-style letters, then save the picture.
Canva Pro lets you upload fonts to Brand Kit, so upload Sancreek there. A Reddit comment also says searching “Wicked” in Canva’s Elements tab finds a Wicked letter set. In CapCut, save the picture on Clear and lay it over your video as an overlay.
The font, yes: Sancreek’s license lets you sell what you make with it. The brand, no. The Wicked name and logo are Universal’s and the musical producers’ property, so putting Wicked or its logo on something you sell means asking them first.
