About Disney`s Oz The Great and Powerful

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.

Each doll measures 10 inches in height.   Estimated release of September with SRPs of $199.95
