Thescreescore – The actress playing Dorothy in Wicked: For Good has finally spoken out, lifting the veil on her involvement in the highly anticipated musical adaptation. Dorothy’s presence is pivotal in Wicked: For Good, the second chapter that delves deeper into the narrative, intertwining with the classic Wizard of Oz storyline.
As characters transform into familiar figures like the Scarecrow and Tin Man, Dorothy remains an outsider, her casting shrouded in secrecy until recently. Bethany Weaver has now shared her experience on Instagram, expressing gratitude for her time on set. "What an honor it has been to walk on the yellow brick road with my fellow Witch Hunters," she wrote, thanking Universal and director Jon M. Chu.
Weaver’s post included behind-the-scenes photos featuring Ethan Slater, Jonathan Bailey, and even Oscar, the canine star of Toto. Before the film’s release, speculation swirled around Alisha Weir, known for Abigail and Matilda, as a potential Dorothy. Ambiguous comments from Weir and her sister fueled the rumors, but the production ultimately confirmed Weaver in the role just before the premiere.
