Elphaba (Cynthia Erivo) uses her powers in the Wicked movie.
Summary Alongside all the other former musical theater kids who grew up enchanted by Wicked, I am ecstatic about the release of the movie, but one particular person must make an appearance for the film to win my support. Looking at Wicked's star-studded cast and characters, the project seems to be set for success, but even the ever-popular Ariana Grande and Jeff Goldblum may not be enough to satisfy longtime fans like me.
Related Every Wizard Of Oz Character Who Appears In Wicked Wicked includes many characters from the original Wizard of Oz story, but their arcs are reframed to reveal more about the complex politics of Oz. While Wicked has been changed for the better over the years, the evolved story must acknowledge those who initially brought it to life. It seems it plans to do just that by giving Chenoweth a cameo in Wicked, and while that's a nice tribute to its roots, that on its own would fall short of that goal. Both actresses deserve roles in the film.
Even a hint to the witches that first defied gravity would help my heart soar like it did on my first viewing, as if by magic.
