Sam Raimi’s ‘Oz, the Great and Powerful’ to Be a Provocative Film?
By Gig Patta on October 16, 2010

 

Director Sam Raimi plans his next project “Oz, the Great and Powerful,” to be a prequel to “The Wizard of Oz.” And there are rumors that actor Robert Downey, Jr. is considered for the lead role as The Wizard himself. The current script is being written by Mitchell Kapner.
According to Pajiba, they received an exclusive leak in regards to the storyline of the movie.
Here is what Pajiba wrote:
“We also knew that the movie would focus on a younger wizard, and his origins in the Land of Oz. Thanks to the Hollywood Cog, we now know quite a few details about Mitchell Kapner’s story, which would have the Wizard — a snake-oil salesman posing as a magician — enter Oz via a hot-air balloon, which he uses to escape an angry husband who has found out that Oz slept with his wife. There, Oz — a fast-talking huckster who wears a velveteen frock coat (yes, I can see that) — falls in love with Glinda (the Good Witch), and the two combine forces to Fight the Evil Witches Evanora and Theodora. Theodora starts out as a good witch, but after Oz jilts her sexual advances, Evanora — the truly evil witch — convinces Theodora to become an evil witch with her and help her to rule all of Oz. Both Evanora and Theodora are described as incredibly attractive, seductive women, and Theodora likes to wear black, thigh-high boots. What is this? Oz porn?”
After reading Pajiba’s article, it seemed a little far-fetched to be the actual storyline for Disney. And the film will be a PG movie, not an R-rated movie. Don’t get me wrong—it sounds like a nice twisted movie for both Raimi and Downey. Let’s take this story with a grain of salt for now.
