    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.

    Also, could that giant emerald necklace be any more “LOOK AT THIS. THIS IS IMPORTANT!”

    Is it just me or I´m really getting a Freddy Krueger vibe from the secon pic in the OP?

    I really wanted Cruella to show up, but now that I have seen Mader as the WWW I´m actually pretty excited.

    I have a crack theory that they might be mashing up the Wicked Witch and Cruella as one character. I mean we had Pan as the Pied Piper, Rumple as the Beast, and Lana as Ursula (sorta), so who knows: https://oncepodcast.com/forums/topic/312-promo/page/5/#post-231113

    I guess its up for debate. I would say the Grimmerie is a lot more powerful in the novel than it is in the musical. From what we can see in the novel, that spell book is VERY dangerous and holds a lot of bad things (including a POSIONED APPLE!!!!!!) Elphbaba herself may not have used that much magic, but give that book to The Wizard and he would have done serious damage (hence why she kept it from him at all costs. He could actually use it and use it right). In the musical, this wasn’t the case. The book is a lot friendlier >> So I would say if someone has the power, and they know what they are doing, give them the book of spells from the novel and not the musical and they become a worthy competitor for Rump or Regina. Its not so much about the witch herself, but her knowledge of magic. And Elphaba from the musical just isn’t quite there yet.

    The fact that they are wearing the same clothes is rather…telling.

    The idea that she might have designed Regina’s ward-drobe is interesting. Most likely it’s just symbolic of her taking over from Regina.

    Making her Cruella though would make her the anti-Elphaba, it amazes me people didn’t pick up on that. Even if she wasn’t based off the Wicked version it would be very jarring to have a version of the WWW that was polar obvious(exploiting/killing animals rather than liberating them). What if instead, if they were adapting Wicked, Madame Morrible was Cruella? She could be the designer of both their wardrobes and some other relation to both of them.

    They might end up having a story arc similar to Animal Farm from Fables(though I sot of hate Fables).

    Also, another source reporting her as Elphaba –
