Corpse Bride Co-Director Set For Dorothy Remake Oz Wars
Vicki Isitt writes for Bleeding Cool:
According to Variety, Mike Johnson, the co-director of Corpse Bride, is heading up a new stop motion feature based on a modern and darker adaptation of The Wizard of Oz called Oz Wars, with script writers Rob Moreland and Athena Gam. This time around, Dorothy is set to get into scrapes with "warrior witches, black magic, martial arts and monsters".
Editor's note: Not to be confused with this Oz Wars, from Deviant Art user DenisM79.
John Williams from Vanguard Films claims that Oz Wars will have darker undertones so will be targeted for adults as well as kids, similar to Johnson's previous Corpse Bride.
While this is a first time collaboration between Vanguard Films and Johnson, Vanguard have recently struck a deal with Kung Fu Panda's John Stevenson for an upcoming live action/CGI film.
