Wicked gay

Wicked. But my true surprise was Cynthia Erivo. With all the said, my main complaint is that Wicked doesn't need to be split into two movies. Bringing her BFF along for the ride, she uncovers the true secrets of Oz. From the many trailers and clips, I was already sold on Ariana Grande's Glinda!

It's a fun, juicy role that offers a lot of freedom for its actor, and Grande ate it all up! Editor's note: this post contains spoilers for Universal Pictures' Wicked. Thankfully, for fans of the musical and fans of movies, Wicked is even better than the hype!

Now, as Out always asks, how gay is it?. I daresay she's my new favorite Elphaba. For just under a month Twitter has been awash with comments about how gay Wicked’s characters are, from Glinda’s wicked gay obvious love for Elphaba to Boq being secretly in the closet.

She takes the role of Elphaba and makes it her own, taking it to emotional places the role has never seen before. This year's live-action musical blockbuster, Wickedis finally here! A deep friendship is born. The two immediately clash, becoming top rivals at Shiz before Glinda realizes she's pushed Elphaba too far, and still, Elphaba remains true to herself.

However, when Elphaba's magic powers make themselves known, Morrible insists she enrolls in the school and assigs her as Glinda's roommate. Directed by Jon M. After we learn a bit about Elphaba's Cynthia Erivo troubled childhood, the film takes us to Shiz University, where Glinda Ariana Grande is hoping to study sorcery under the esteemed Madame Morrible Michelle Yeohand Elphaba is just dropping off her sister.

While Grande has been getting a lot of Oscar buzz for her role, I think Erivo deserves it just as much, if not more. The rest of the cast is also delightful, with Jonathan Bailey as the most handsome Fiyero of all time, Jeff Goldblum as the most Goldblum-y Wizard of all time, and Michelle Yeoh as a perfectly powerful Madame Morrible.

Wicked’ Is Even Gayer :

Based on the wildly popular and award-winning Broadway musical, Wicked has finally been made into a motion picture or rather, two and the hype could not be higher. See on Instagram. She's god-like in the role and an unstoppable force of potential, wishing for a better life.

But to me, this is a problem with Wicked the stage musical as well, as the second half is definitely weaker than the first. And somehow, it soars even higher than expectations! Wicked is also about finding a way to live with your annoying roommate—which isn’t exclusively gay but is somehow very queer-relatable.

She's everything Elphaba should be and more. She's terrific as the spoiled princess who always gets everything she wants — until she meets Elphaba, who's her opposite in every way.
