New 'Wicked: For Good' Details Tease Elphaba & Fiyero's Dreamy Duet
"As Chu told Entertainment Weekly in a new preview, Fiyero has since joined the Wizard's Guard - or Gale Force - in an attempt to find Elphaba. "Because if someone else gets to her, then who knows what will happen," the director explained. His worldview is also shaken after the time he shared with Elphaba in Part 1, with Chu calling it "more than just love" between them. (Um... swoon.)"
""In Wicked, Elphaba breaks his brain when she calls him out in the forest. He has not stopped thinking about it, so much so that it may be driving him a little bit nuts," he continued. "Yet, he feels so powerless for the first time in his life. He can't just dance right through it." Fortunately (and spoilers ahead for the stage musical), Elphaba and Fiyero do get the chance to confront those feelings head-on in the Act 2 song, "As Long as You're Mine.""
Fiyero joins the Wizard's Guard, Gale Force, to search for Elphaba after Madame Morrible's slander and his departure from Shiz University. His experience with Elphaba left him deeply unsettled, described as more than love and occupying his thoughts obsessively, causing emotional turmoil and a new sense of powerlessness. Elphaba and Fiyero confront their feelings in Act 2's duet "As Long as You're Mine," a confessional song that heightens their romantic intimacy. The film adaptation will expand on the stage's romantic suggestions and emphasize how their relationship elevates and transforms both characters.
