Warning: This article contains MAJOR SPOILERS for the Wicked musical and movie!
The actor began her onscreen career in the 1980s in Hong Kong movies.
However, Michelle Yeohs singing is far from the part of herWickedrole that Im most excited about.

The decision to cast the actor as Madame Morrible continues one of the most thrilling Michelle Yeoh acting trends.
She says shes sad about what happened to the teacher, but the tone and expression seem disingenuous.
As the press secretary, she spreads the rumors about Elphaba to hide The Wizard and her horrific actions.

If Joyce Reynolds is a charlatan conning others, shes a villain just as much as shes a victim.
Thats open to interpretation, though.
AsThe Tigers Apprenticereviewspoint out, the movie fell flat overall, but I loved Yeohs performance in the role.
HerWickedrole is the second in the trend.
The actors best-known roles, such as Evelyn Wang inEverything Everywhere All at Once, are heroes or protagonists.
The dichotomy between her general roles and the villain roles makes them much more interesting to watch.

The facial expressions, body movements, and tones all factor into her villains being so lovable.
