I'm going to go with Evanna Lynch, but I'm biased because I think she's amazing and would love to see her in another fantasy role. Still it could work really well, they want someone in their twenties, probably a blonde, and since WWW is English, might as well make Glinda as well. Evanna Lynch would be very interesting as Glinda! I can see it. I adored Evanna Lynch as Luna Lovegood.

She would make a lovely Glinda, as long as she keeps her Irish accent. The major downside, Evanna Lynch may look too similar to Rose McIver. Yes, but with the amount of characters on this show (especially at the rate they keep introducing them), actors and actresses looking similar to one another is going to happen. Obviously, sometimes this is purposefully, as characters are meant to be related, but sometimes you just have two people who fit the roles who happen to look somewhat similar. You bring up an interesting point though, could this explain why they didn't want a blonde arian Rupunzel, they were worried they would have too many similar looking women on the show? We do have quite a few recurring that fit that mold: Emma, Cinderella/Ashley, Malificent, Abigail/Katherine, Tinkerbell, etc. Again though, this seems kind of unavoidable with the amount of characters on the show.
