Disney has released a trailer for its forthcoming movie Oz: The Great and Powerful.

The movie is a prequel to the famous Wizard of Oz and is directed by Sam Raimi. Much like the 1939 movie starring Judy Garland the film starts in black and white before moving into colour when the action shifts to the magically world of Oz.

Oz: The Great and Powerful will star James Franco, Michelle Williams, Zach Braff, Mila Kunis and Rachel Weisz.

Oz: The Great and Powerful is released in the UK on 8th March 2013 so you’ve a little while to wait yet!
