The Oscar-nominated actor has been cast as the voice of the Cowardly Lion in Wicked: For Good.

The announcement was made on the “Wicked” Instagram account on Monday, with Domingo hiding behind a lion stuffed animal before revealing himself and saying: “See you in Oz!”

Filmmaker Jon M. Chu recently teased that the fans would be excited when they found out who it was. “Man, wait until the red carpet when the actor who gave us the Cowardly Lion’s voice steps foot on it. It’ll be wild,” he said.

Wicked: For Good sees the cub fully grown into the Cowardly Lion who blames Elphaba for his situation. With the sequel overlapping timelines with “The Wizard of Oz,” the lion is seen with Dorothy, The Tin Man and Scarecrow heading down the Yellow Brick Road to see the Wizard (Jeff Goldblum). He’s also seen during the musical number “March of the Witchhunters.” However, as in the Broadway musical, the character doesn’t have a large part.

Universal will release the film in theaters on November 21.
