- Ariana Grande, who plays Glinda, revealed that her character chose to stay behind because she valued her status and wasn't ready to give up everything she had built.
- Grande also noted that Glinda lacked the 'tools' to join Elphaba's rebellion, as the two characters have markedly different approaches to activism, with Elphaba being more vocal and direct while Glinda prefers to work within the system.
