Anyone who reads OLV on even a semi-regular basis knows I love Dawson’s Creek and all of the show’s alums so you can imagine how excited I was when it was announced earlier today that Michelle Williams has joined the cast of Oz The Great and Powerful.
In the Wizard of Oz prequel, James Franco will play a traveling salesman who finds himself in the magical land, along with Mila Kunis as the young witch Theadora, Rachel Weisz as her evil sister Evanora and now Michelle Williams will play Glinda, the good witch who teams up with Franco’s character to battle for control of Oz.
The movie begins filming in July in Michigan, which also means extras casting is well underway. There will be an open casting call held in Pontiac on June 11th. Check out all of the details below:
