However, recent actions by some fans have left people scratching their heads. They have used editing and AI technology to claim they have 'fixed' the poster, sparking widespread discussion.

These fan creations are both impressive and outlandish. Some have replaced the characters in the poster with movie stars, while others have even changed the entire background to outer space. These 'fixed' versions, though amusing, have also sparked controversy. Some argue that it is disrespectful to the original work, while others see it as an innovative form of expression.

In response to these actions, lead actress Cynthia Erivo finally spoke up. On social media, she expressed her understanding of the fans' enthusiasm but also emphasized the importance of respecting the original work. She wrote, 'Thank you all for your love and support for Wicked, but please remember that the creation process of an art piece is complex and meaningful. Every detail is the result of thoughtful consideration by the creators.'
