![]() She eats up every scene she’s in, plays Bloom and honestly most people like a fiddle, and has the unhinged kind of charisma you’d expect from a kid raised, essentially, by cultists. But yeah, they had to write out the technology fairy.Īnyway, Beatrix is great. In this particular iteration of elemental magic, though, wind includes both lightning and short-circuiting cellphones. They say she has wind powers, but as far as I remember, we never actually see her doing anything with wind. Want to get access to *all* of Cosmo? We've got you covered.Beatrix gets Stormy’s powers, Icy’s character, and Darcy’s love life. Let's also hope that Techna, a genius fairy with powers over technology, and the animal-obsessed Roxy, who also do not appear in Fate: The Winx Saga, are cast if the show continues for a second season. The Netflix show alludes to Terra having a cousin named Flora, so let's hope they set this diversity fail right and bring Flora on board for Season 2. ![]() but the actress' ethnicity has not been publically discussed or divulged.) (It is also possible that Musa, an Asian character in the cartoon, was whitewashed. Where TF are Flora, Techna, & Roxy?įans of the original series will notice that Flora, the fairy with a magical green thumb, has been replaced with Terra - whose casting on Fate: The Winx Saga caused a bit of controversy, as Flora is canonically Latino and Terra is played by a white actress. IMO they could still incorporate Icy, Stormy, and/or Darcy into the show. The cartoon's Italian creator Francesco Artibani was deliberately vague about it on Twitter. However, it hasn't really been confirmed that she's based on all of them. It's super suss that there was a trio of evil witches called "Trix" in Winx Club and one of the mean girl antagonists in Fate: The Winx Saga is named Beatrix. Beatrix is (likely) a combo of three characters. However, it does seem like most of the fairies are girls and most of the specialists are boys. ![]() That's no longer the case on Fate: The Winx Saga. Other Winx Club love interests like Stella's boyfriend Brandon, Flora's boyfriend Hella, and Aisha's boyfriend Nabu haven't shown up yet at all.and a little more gender equality.Īt Nickelodeon's Alfea, all of the girls are fairies and all of the boys are specialists. was it romantic foreshadowing? The Sky/Stella relationship in Fate: The Winx Saga is also totally new for fans of the original show. They had a moment at the end of the season. But Musa, who has a boyfriend named Sam on the Netflix series, dates Riven in the cartoon. ![]() I'm talking about Bloom and Sky, who have a will they/won't they thing going from the start. Some of the OTPs from the original series set sail at the beginning of the series. Close enough? There's potential boyfriend drama. Speaking of music, Musa in the cartoon had musical powers, and in the new show she's an empath who wears headphones. We're going to have to wait for karaoke night to hear any of the Netflix girls' pipes, unfortch. Oh yeah, the Nickelodeon show was totes a musical. Play icon The triangle icon that indicates to play There are no songs. Sky, Stella's ex-boyfriend who immediately takes an interest in Bloom, is a prince in the Nickelodeon show too. But on the Nickelodeon series, all of the Winx are fairy princesses, including Aisha and Musa. On the Netflix series, Stella is a known princess and Bloom like. So here are the major differences worth mentioning. Why don't they all have wings? Where's the rabbit? Etc. Bloom meets Stella in the park, not in the dormitory. You could drive yourself crazy listing all of the little differences between the live-action show and the cartoon. It's like how the Dark Knight movies decided that Batman should be super serious and gritty. The obvious difference between The Winx Club and Fate: The Winx Saga is that the latter live-action series is edgier and aimed at older teens and young adults. but it is! Fate: The Winx Saga is an adaptation of The Winx Club, and while the characters and story are basically the same, there are a lot of differences.
