Walt Disney has released a new trailer for director Sam Raimi's Oz: The Great and Powerful by way of the studio's "Find Your Way to Oz" app. The film's latest trailer reveals quite a bit of previously unseen footage from the film, which tells the origin story of L. Frank Baum's beloved Emerald City wizard. Raimi's prequel makes its U.S. theatrical debut on March 8th.
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 has 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 a great and powerful wizard but into a better man as well.
