Will Young, the
gay winner of the British talent show Pop Idol's
first season, is reportedly in talks to join the
production of Wicked in London's West End. He
made his acting debut in the 2005 film Mrs. Henderson
Presents.
He is expected to
essay the male lead role of Flyero after current actor
Adam Garcia's contract expires.
"Will was treated
like a king," a source told the British newspaper
The Sun. "Lucy Liu had been in to watch the
show a couple of nights before and didn't receive the same
pampering. Will had the best seats and was put in the VIP
room, something which isn't the norm for celebrities.
They're really trying to woo him, and he seems keen to
get started with rehearsals." (The Advocate).
