Glinda in the Wicked book clearly had feelings for Elphaba.

Based off of the way they described Glinda and Elphaba's sexualities, Glinda "might be a little in the closet" and Elphaba "goes wherever the wind goes", I totally interpret that as them saying Glinda is bi, and Elphaba is pan.

well in the book they kissed, glinda was very obviously closeted, always blushing when elphaba complimented her and never once had feelings for fiyero. glinda and elphaba were bitter exes by the end

As one of those ElphiexGlinda shippers, it just feels like they're each other's person, regardless of romantic relationship (though i really wish they'd date. They kiss in the books!)

Ok, let's talk about how you, my friend, were the ONLY interviewer who brought up this topic! As a Gelphie shipper, I am literally so grateful to you! Thank you! Just thank you! It's wonderful to be seen, by you and by them, and CONSIDERED (after all, they said it's all possible) I still can't believe this video exists! It feels like a dream 🥹🩷💚

I don’t know if this is a spoiler or not but… There were times during the movie where Glinda was too close to Elphie that made me feel like: 😳
And of course the notorious subtext starts with “What is this feeling?”
I reed the novel many many years ago so I don’t remember much, but I have always thought there might be something there between them 😅
So, there were some moments during the movie where I was like “…wait, are they romantically in love with each other? But there’s Fiyero… They can not… are they gonna…?” 😂 Today, after still processing the movie I was like “🤔 I think Glinda had a crush on Elphie” For me she was the one that seemed the most “in love” if such probability exist…

Elphaba is probably Pan

Theres actually some academic writings on it. Stacy Wolf’s book ‘Changed For Good - A Feminist History of Broadway Musicals’ explores the musical as a queer relationship between Glinda and Elphaba. The musicality and lyrics are less subtle than people think it is.

Loved the movie!
