Legendary Is Developing a Series Set in the World of THE WIZARD OF OZ
Legendary Entertainment is developing a TV series that will be set in the land of Oz that was created by author L. Frank Baum. If you’re a fan of The Wizard of Oz, then this is a series that you might be interested in watching.
According to Variety, the series will “examine stories and characters in Oz that haven’t been previously explored. When the return of a long-exiled Witch brings fear, division, and war to Oz, the only hope is a servant girl who may become the most powerful and dangerous woman in the land.”
That sounds like this could be an interesting direction for a series. While the story and concept sound good, I’m more curious to see what this show will look like visually.
The series is being written and produced by Ed Ricourt (Now You See Me, Jessica Jones, Wayward Pines). There’s no director attached to the project yet, but Ricourt had this to say in a statement:
“I’m thrilled to partner with Legendary TV and dj2 to adapt my take on Baum’s rich, complex OZ book series which has influenced me creatively since childhood.”
What are you thoughts on this this Land of Oz series that is being developed?
