I'd love to know the names of everyone who auditioned for Glinda and Elphie.

Amen to that! Is there a weedier, more insipid voice than hers being cast in mainstream musical cinema at the moment? No need to respond…that was rhetorical.

She sounded like a budgie trilling for a fresh cuttlefish in the Les Mis film.

I really liked her in Mamma Mia - the sadly cut “The Name of the Game” is terrific. But Les Mis wasn’t good at all.
I think it’s great that she even recognises this herself.

If you stay stuck in 2013 perhaps, but she gets credit from me for getting better since Les Mis - and for acknowledging her own failures in that film. She sounded good in Mamma Mia 2.

I can't wait for the first look at Cynthia and Ariana in character. The visual look of the film will be interesting.

I don't know whether Aaron Tveit would be too old for Fiyero or not.

I have no idea what to expect from this casting. I find it hard to believe any Fiyero could relate to both of them, which is probably why the casting has not been announced.

I hope they give more stuff for Nessarose, Boq, Fiyero, and Morrrible to do in the movie.

I doubt any one could have been more optimistic about this movie but me, but even I'm doubting it's ever going to be happen.

By the time they let us see part 1 I think I’ll be completely past caring.

Tend to agree. It’s hardly hot property any more is it? We’ve seen people fly onscreen for nearly eighty years and they are going to have to do something spectacular to make this worth the trouble. ‘Oz The Great & Powerful’ did some pretty spectacular stuff, which might be worth paying homage to.

Huge mistake to make this into 2 films. I fully expect them to change their minds and make it 1 movie before shooting ends.

I’ve never been less excited for a musical to movie adaptation until now…the whole idea is cringe…

I do not think its the hot number it was a few years ago and not really sure these 2 will be the big draw they think.

I think the buzz will hit once we're out of the pre-production phase.

They need a good Fiyero or it’s dead in the water.

I still want a Fiyero of the Aaron Tveit/Derek Klena mould

I still want a Fiyero of the Aaron Tveit/Derek Klena mould Austin Butler seems like the ideal choice since he’s man of the moment. He seems likely to win the Oscar next year so it’d be great publicity for the movie.

I'm sure they're close to finding for Fiyero, if they haven't already

Austin Butler would be a great fit - but not with either of the two they’ve cast. Cynthia in particular would look like his mother. I don’t think there’s actually that much of a gap but she looks older than her age and he looks younger, not a good combo.
