The Spot News: Sam Raimi and Disney Want Different Actress For OZ


The Spot News: Sam Raimi and Disney Want Different Actresses For OZ The Great And Powerful


Sam Raimi is said to be at loggerheads with Disney over who should play a key part in his upcoming “origins of the Wizard” picture, Oz The Great and Wonderful. The role in question is that of a witch, one of several in the film, with Mila Kunis already cast as the youngest amongst their number.

Raimi’s choice for this witch is Hilary Swank, with whom he previously collaborated on The Gift, and who has a couple of Oscar wins under her belt but has, lately, seen her selection of films work out less well. Meanwhile, the studio would prefer Michelle Williams, who is certainly more fashionable right now.
