It’s amazing when you have that alignment."The co-actors also opened up about their characters, Fiyero (played by Jonathan) and Elphaba (played by Cynthia) in the Wicked movies. Cynthia noted,"They’re so made for each other and not at the same time, which is what makes them have this sort of frenetic, electric energy."
