I am so excited for OZ THE GREAT & POWERFUL to come to theaters from Walt Disney Studios on March 8th!!!  I don’t know about you, but I get chills of excitement every time I see the preview of OZ THE GREAT & POWERFUL come on the television or in the theater.  Not only will this movie be on the big screen, but it will also be in 3D.  Be on the lookout this Sunday during Super Bowl as this commercial for OZ THE GREAT & POWERFUL airs on live television!  Plus, you’ll want to check out the witch and all her power as she takes over the Disney.com homepage immediately following the commercial on game day.

SYNOPSIS:

Disney’s fantastical adventure “Oz The Great and Powerful,” directed by Sam Raimi, imagines the origins of L. Frank Baum’s beloved wizard character. 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 wizard but into a better man as well.

“Oz The Great and Powerful” is produced by Joe Roth, with screen story by Mitchell Kapner and screenplay by Mitchell Kapner and David Lindsay-Abaire. Grant Curtis, Palak Patel, Josh Donen and Philip Steuer are serving as executive producers. “Oz The Great and Powerful” opens in U.S. theaters on March 8, 2013.
