Hi, Bryan Here…..
This past summer, Disney debuted Sam Raimi’s teaser trailer for ‘Oz The Great and Powerful’ at Comic-Con. A few months have passed, and now we have the full length trailer with tons of new footage. The film stars James Franco, Zach Braff, Michelle Williams, and Rachel Weisz. The film opens up March 8, 2013. Can’t wait. This trailer looks amazing.
Synopsis: When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he’s hit the jackpot-fame and fortune are his for the taking-that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity-and even a bit of wizardry-Oscar transforms himself not only into the great and powerful Wizard of Oz but into a better man as well. Enjoy the trailer.
this is the perfect project for raimi, so long as he’s not critically restrained (i.e. Spiderman 3)
The trailer looks awesome, and I bet he will do this justice. I think he learned his lesson with Spidey 3.
