Unless they are using the book version of Elphaba, I highly doubt the musical version would be much of a match for any of our villains. I love wicked… But I just hope they really aren’t using the Wicked version of the witch. But this article is really confusing since they used the Elphie name a few times
Of course it’s an adaption. They’ll probably take influence from different interpretations of the WWW.
Also the book version couldn’t actually do all that much magic. The musical one was more powerful.
