But what we do know for sure, after seeing part one ofWicked,is that they have chemistry.

They are in sync!

WithinWicked, the two dont talk a lot.

Within the film, he just grovels at Glindas feet while she ignores him entirely and forgets his name.

They have a few conversations early on, but the real showcase comes during the Dancing Through Life sequence.

She rejects him by making him ask Nessarose, Elphabas disabled sister, to the dance instead.

Notably, Grande has less chemistry with Jonathan Baileys Fiyero than she does with Slater.

Part of the fun is that theyre quite clearly the only two who really get what the originalWickedwas.

Everyone else makes the whole affair more dour than it needs to be.

Those versions of the characters make for a good movie but not necessarily a fun one.

Both are bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.

They have aligned manic theater kid energies, that, when paired, really work.

If that happened, it is bad, sure.
