A new trailer has debuted online for Disney’s Oz the Great and Powerful, directed by Sam Raimi, and it really packs a punch for being the shortest trailer yet for the film, cramming as much action as possible into less than one minute of footage. The trailer even features a few new shots from The Wizard of Oz prequel, including more of the wicked witch, so it is definitely worth a look. Hit the jump to watch the new trailer!
Official Synopsis:
When Oscar Diggs, 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, Evanora and Glinda, 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 and powerful Wizard of Oz but into a better man as well.
