Dr. Dillamond, a pivotal character in the journeys of Elphaba and Glinda in the musical Wicked, may or may not appear in the upcoming movie adaptation. The cast of the Wicked movie, featuring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande in the lead roles, recently posed for a group portrait published by Vanity Fair on March 21. The photo included other cast members such as Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Yeoh, Marissa Bode, Bowen Yang, and Bronwyn James.
Notably absent from the cast photo was Dr. Dillamond, leading to speculation among fans about the character's potential appearance in the movie. Some fans theorized that the absence of Dr. Dillamond could set up a dramatic reveal later in the production. Others suggested the possibility of a gender-bent version of the character played by Idina Menzel, the original Elphaba on Broadway.
