Landing in theaters on May 9, 2014 is the newest film in the Wizard of Oz franchise, Legends of Oz: Dorothy’s Return.
The animate film stars the voice talents of Lea Michele, Hugh Dancy, Megan Hilty, Jim Belushi, Martin Short, Dan Aykroyd, Kelsey Grammer, Oliver Platt, Bernadette Peters and Patrick Stewart. The film also features music by Bryan Adams.
Legends of Oz: Dorothy’s Return is a 3D-animated musical based on the adventure books by Roger Stanton Baum, the great-grandson of L. Frank Baum. A continuation of one of the world’s most popular and beloved fairy tales, Legends of Oz finds Dorothy (Lea Michele) waking to post-tornado Kansas, only to be whisked back to Oz to try to save her old friends the Scarecrow (Dan Aykroyd), the Lion (Jim Belushi), the Tin Man (Kelsey Grammer) and Glinda (Bernadette Peters) from a devious new villain, the Jester (Martin Short). Wiser the owl (Oliver Platt), Marshal Mallow (Hugh Dancy), China Princess (Megan Hilty) and Tugg the tugboat (Patrick Stewart) join Dorothy on her latest magical journey through the colorful landscape of Oz to restore order and happiness to Emerald City. Set to the tunes of Academy Award-nominated singer/songwriter Bryan Adams, Legends of Oz marks a charming, family-friendly return to the Oz franchise.
Here is the film’s trailer for your enjoyment.
It looks really good – and funny too.
The film’s soundtrack will be released on May 6, 2014. It features 13 tracks from Academy Award-nominated singer/songwriter Bryan Adams that are featured in the film. Songs are sung by Lea Michele, Megan Hilty, Hugh Dancy & more!
Bandai Toys has created a beautiful Dorothy Fashion Doll that sings songs from the film. Look how beautiful she is.
The Legends of Oz product line brings Dorothy Gale, the legendary, courageous heroin character, and her set of friends beyond the screen, to little girls everywhere through beautiful dolls, collectible figures and plush.
The doll sings clips from the songs “One Day” and “Work With Me” which are featured in the new film. The songs are sung by Glee star Lea Michele.
The doll comes with a denim dress and cropped pink jacket which is her signature outfit in the film. She’s also wearing the same cowboy boots.
This lovely doll retails for $24.99 and is available at places like Amazon, Toys R Us, Target, Walmart and KMart.
For more information about the film and cast of characters visit the official website. In addition you can check out the film’s official Facebook page and follow the film on Twiter (@LegendsofOz). Check out clips on the film’s YouTube channel.

First I’ve heard of it – but it sounds interesting. Lately we have more remakes, prequels et cetra than original movies or TV shows. Initially I resented them, but I’m getting to like taking another look at a set of characters we all ‘know’. This could be a really good show
