Wicked (2024) - Jonathan Bailey as Fiyero - IMDb
Fiyero: [Looks at Elphaba dancing all by herself while others are laughing at her] I'll say this much, she doesn't give a twig what anyone thinks.
I can’t think of a better Fiyero. Who else would fitted the role?
If this was in the 80s/90s, Cary Elwes would have been a great Fiyero More on reddit.com

As 'Wicked' Celebrates 20 Years on Broadway, Who Has Played Fiyero – the Show's Resident Hunk? | EDGE United States
November 13, 2023 - Recently the 31-year-old actor began previews for the first revival of "Spamalot" and Grande was on hand to show her support. Slater was able to take the role due to the SAG-AFTRA strike that has suspended filmmaking in London. In the film version, conceived in two parts, Grande plays Glinda and Cynthia Erivo plays her frenemy Elphaba. Fiyero is the heartthrob who becomes involved with both sisters. But there is some question as to just where "Wicked" will be filmed, according to the Daily Mail, which reported that the British sets were torn down after the strike dragged on for too long.

September 22, 2022 -
Already people have complained about the 'Bridgerton' star not being a musical actor. Apparently those people are unaware he won an Olivier Award for 'Company' – a role for which Sondheim rewrote lyrics to make the character male and subsequently said he was a flawless performer.
'the last scene of Act I (which is now two guys) will completely shatter you, as well as it being one of the funniest scenes on record. All due to [Jonathan Bailey], the guy who plays Jamie, the Amy-equivalent. I only wish George Furth could see it' – Stephen Sondheim
Will he do an Anne Hathaway, Joel Grey or Emma Stone and win an Oscar for a musical? He'd be the first openly queer male actor to win an Oscar if so.

I've been worried about Fiyero's casting, but I'm just glad they found someone who can sing. I'm hoping since they cast Grande for star power that they pad out the rest of the cast with musical people. I really want a good Nessarose.
