Assign a DC Character to a Movie Role

Okay, I had a bit too much fun with this. Sticking with a themed cast again- this time, it’s Wicked with DC’s magical characters, or at least JLD-adjacent characters.

Elphaba Thropp/The Wicked Witch of the West- June Moone/The Enchantress
Glinda Upland- Zatanna Zatara
Nessarose Thropp- Nightshade
Boq- Ragman
Doctor Dillamond- Detective Chimp
Fiyero- John Constantine
Madame Morrible- Circe
The Wizard- Lucifer Morningstar

Broader ideas for musical characters that I don’t yet have full casts planned for:

  • Two-Face as The Phantom of the Opera
  • Larfleeze as Monsieur Thenardier from Les Miserables
  • Granny Goodness as Agatha Trunchbull from Matilda
  • Livewire as Roxie Hart from Chicago
  • Black Canary as Marian from The Music Man (though I suppose Ollie could fit Professor Harold Hill :wink: )
  • Huntress (Helena Bertinelli) as Anya from Anastasia (If I remember correctly, she’s even made this comparison herself!)

And not necessarily a role she could play, per se…but I really want to see a Catwoman fanvid set to “One Jump Ahead” from Aladdin.

Audrey II: Frank the Plant (from the Harley Quinn animated series)
Mr. Mushnik: The Penguin
Orin Scrivello, DDS: The Joker
