Article Excerpt:

He's giving The Wizard of Oz a new look, and now Todd McFarlane (Spawn) is talking about what he has in mind. First things first: It's a sequel, not a remake, but it's really more of a re-imagining, because it's the same set of circumstances with different characters and a darker tone.

There was talk that Dakota Fanning would play the new Dorothy, which as it stands right now is actually Dorothy's granddaughter. McFarlane tells Empire that might not stick and he's certainly not 100% sold on Fanning.

"If we just do a sugary sweet Dorothy that everybody has seen over and over for 50 years, as far as I'm concerned, that's too obvious," McFarlane points out. "I'm happy to go with whoever will get the most people in the seats, but sometimes that can change from month to month."
