Wicked is the story of Elphaba and Glinda’s relationship, but there is another iconic Ozian witch who holds a significant position in the tale, and Wicked: For Good stands to accomplish a lot with just one change concerning the Wicked Witch of the East. While Elphaba and Glinda are, respectively, fantastically played by Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande-Butera — now both Oscar nominees for their performances — the role of Elphaba’s younger sister Nessarose was taken on by newcomer Marissa Bode. Bode has discussed Nessa’s darker turn in Wicked 2, after her charming presence in the first movie.
