James Franco is up for "Oz" after Johnny Depp passes

This year's Academy Award host and Best Actor nominee, James Franco, is currently in talks to star in "Oz, the Great and Powerful". This is a prequel of Disney's classic "The Wizard of Oz", and will be directed by Sam Raimi. James' name is the strongest alternate after Robert Downey, Jr., the first actor offered this role confirmed he won't continue this production, and then Johnny Depp passed this role last night.

"Oz, the Great and Powerful" tells about a tale of young illusionist with a grandiose attitude who is forced to flee a traveling circus. His hot air balloon is swept up by a tornado to the land of Oz, which is run by two magical wicked witches.

James previously worked with Sam Raimi in the "Spider-Man" trilogy, thus it will be possible for him to get the role. Moreover, his talent is undoubtedly acclaimed and his popularity is on the peak right now. This movie is to be released in 2013, with Mitchell Kapnerr ("Romeo Must Die") as the screenplay writer.
