The story has The Wizard (James Franco) as a “snake-oil salesman” who enters the Technicolor world of Oz after escaping the vengeful husband of his latest sexual conquest. Once in Oz, he lies to the natives, claiming to be a wizard. This deceitful Casanova soon falls for Glinda the Good Witch, and spurns Theodora (Mila Kunis) prompting her to becomes a bad witch and team up with the downright evil Evanora (Rachel Weisz?) to destroy Oz.
Disney and director Raimi were at odds over whether Hilary Swank or Williams should play Evanora a couple of weeks ago
Oz is written by Mitchell Kapner and David Lindsay-Abaire, and will be produced by Joe Roth.
Shooting begins this July in Michigan, and Disney is planning a release of fall 2012.
