New Trailer
In the new trailer, Glinda appears in the Wizard's throne room with Elphaba and the Wizard. This is different from the stage version. The three characters are seen dancing together.
Elphaba and Glinda
also sit together on a swing made from her broom. This shows a new take on their relationship. It is unclear how the scene begins, but it may suggest Glinda arrives before or after the Wizard.
Live Events
The "Wonderful" number was originally about Elphaba and the Wizard. He tries to manipulate her to join his side. She considers his offer but later rejects it. This moment shows how he uses words to gain control. Adding Glinda changes the tone. Glinda may believe she can convince Elphaba to join them. She might not see the harm in working together. Her presence adds emotional pressure for Elphaba.
Possibly a Wizard's Illusion
The setting may be an illusion created by the Wizard. He may want to impress both witches. This could be a trick to confuse them. It allows Elphaba and Glinda a chance to talk in private. Their bond remains important throughout the story. This version may highlight the sadness of their divided paths.

Concerns About Glinda's Role
The original scene between Elphaba and the Wizard shows their clear differences. Adding Glinda may take away focus. It also creates doubts about her true intent. If she follows the Wizard's plan, her support may look forced. However, if she defends Elphaba, the story could gain a new emotional layer.
