The Wizard of Oz Series Episode 6

Pay More Attention To The Man Behind The Curtain

James Franco (Spring Breakers) might look like a sleazy huckster to many in the real world, but that won’t stop the citizens of Oz from proclaiming him a Great and Powerful wizard in this 2013 prequel. Can the philanderer achieve greatness once he stops breaking the heart of clingy Mila Kunis (That 70s Show), resists the temptations of calculating Rachel Weisz (The Mummy), and settles down with true believer Michelle Williams (Venom)?  And can Evil Dead director Sam Raimi do for wicked witches what he did for zombies?
