July 8, 2022 -

OMG im obsessed. LMAO i knew a few songs prior but seeing the whole play live ive been changed for good. okay ill stop lol

no but yeah, so at the end, Fiyero shows up again as a scarecrow. im a bit confused tho.

was it just a disguise or was he actually turned into an actual scarecrow because of elphaba's spell?

Wicked Part 2: Here's What Happens to Fiyero, According to the Musical
November 25, 2024 - Wanting to keep each other safe, Elphaba and Fiyero leave Oz and agree never to tell anyone they are alive. Assuming Wicked Part 2 follows the second act of the original play, fans will also see the second act of the musical play out.

a question about what happened to Fiyero at the end...
So in WICKED (Book), Fiyero is murdered by the Oz Guards and Elphaba believes he's the Scarecrow that is until he's torn apart. And in WICKED (Musical), Fiyero is tortured by the Oz Guards until he gives away Elphaba's whereabouts and Elphaba casts a spell that transforms him into the Scarecrow. More on reddit.com

Fiyero ending in the musical
As they say in the movie, a spell from the Grimmerie cannot be reversed, he's stuck as a Scarecrow. Yes, running off leaves a lot of open questions, but that's the point. They're running off to start a new life, they don't have the answers to those questions themselves. It's intentionally open-ended. More on reddit.com

Does Elphaba really die in wicked? Because Fiyero (The Scarecrow) opens a trap door on the stage and Elphaba come out of it.
To add to the “she might have survived in the books” comments, at the end of the first book, Nanny gives a prophecy that Elphaba will return. Throughout the middle of the series, there’s a few hints that she might still be out there. And at the end of the fourth book, Glinda is put in jail but is saved by someone she recognizes, saying to the unseen rescuer “You wicked old thing, what took you so long?” . More on reddit.com

Sorry gals, Fiyero's ending is way nastier in the Wicked books than in Wicked: For Good
December 1, 2025 - As Elphaba grows more paranoid, she starts believing that even if the Scarecrow isn’t Fiyero in disguise, it magically contains the spirit of Fiyero. The book ends without a clear explanation. So, it’s up to the reader to decide whether the Scarecrow actually is Fiyero, or whether Elphaba has lost her grip on reality. I did warn you Fiyero’s ending was way sadder than in Wicked: For Good x

What Happened to Elphaba & Fiyero at the End of Wicked: For Good? (EXPLAINED)
However, the twist is quickly revealed: Elphie didn't die at the hands of Dorothy. She actually hid under a trap door and faked her dramatic death. One of the lasting scenes in Wicked: For Good occurs when Fiyero makes his triumphant return, is revealed as the Scarecrow, and opens the trap door to reveal Elphaba so they can finally be together.

January 8, 2025 - An onscreen transformation: From what I remember of the stage musical (which I saw exactly once in 2012 when the Wicked National Tour came through St. Louis), Fiyero’s transformation into the Scarecrow happens offstage during Elphaba’s big solo, “No Good Deed,” as the result of a spell she casts after Fiyero has been kidnapped by an angry mob (“May his bones never break…and no matter how they may try to destroy him, let him never die”).
