"Shared by Entertainment Tonight on Friday (26 December), the cut clip sees a sweaty Bailey, in his role as the Chieftain of the Arjikis, rip off his shirt after chopping wood. Feeling challenged by Fiyero's strapping physique, Boq, played by Slater, tears his own shirt off, revealing the kind of abs that could make an Emerald City guard die of thirst."
""Look, he's jacked under that shirt," Yang said at the time. "There were paparazzi shots of this because they had to shoot in, like, a park in London of them hanging out, where it's Boq and Fiyero, Jonathan Bailey and Ethan Slater, ripping their shirts off. "You were supposed to see Jonathan Bailey in his full shirtless glory, like flexing ... but then it's like, 'Wait, Ethan's got a great body'. I might get in trouble for saying that, but the movie's out, it's fine.""
A deleted, shirtless clip from Wicked shows Jonathan Bailey as the Chieftain of the Arjikis ripping off his shirt after chopping wood, with Boq (Ethan Slater) following suit and revealing pronounced abs. The moment was reportedly intended to follow the song 'Popular' to visually establish that Fiyero, Boq, Glinda, Elphaba, and Nessa are friends. The scene was cut before release, possibly for time or because of concerns about Slater's physique distracting from the sequence. The leaked footage was shared and confirmed publicly, prompting viral attention. Bailey also partnered with Loewe on a 'Drink your Milk' t-shirt to raise money for his LGBTQ+ charity.
