Legends of Oz: Dorothy's Return

Black clouds again hung over the Emerald City! This time, the new evil is the power-hungry jester Jester, who wants to become the lord of this beautiful city. The Wizard of Oz sees no other way out than to contact Dorothy again so that she can help him and his friends in the form of the Cowardly Lion, the Woodcutter and the Scarecrow. This time, the heroes carry the girl with the help of the rainbow bridge. Upon arrival in wonderland, however, the girl does not find her friends, but meets the scarecrow Sava, Captain Zephyr and the porcelain princess. Together, they must find the Wizard, who will tell them how to defeat the Jester. Read more Hollywood's attempts to play on the popularity of already existing and previously made films have reached the continuation of the story about the Land of Oz. However, this time it is more of an official sequel than just an attempt to play on the cult of the classic story. The script was based on the book of the same name by Roger S. Baum, who is the great-grandson of Frank Baum, the author of the authentic story about the Land of Oz. If we take the story as a whole, then the cartoon "Oz: Return to the Emerald City" became the twentieth adaptation about the girl Dorothy. The draft title of the animated film was the title "Dorothy of Oz". It was announced in December 2013 that the cartoon will be a musical. At the same time, it became known that the composer and performer will be Brian Adams, whose songs were heard in "Spirit: Soul of the Prairies". Megan Hilty, who voices Glinda, previously performed the role live in a stage production of the musical The Witch. Oz: Return to the Emerald City premiered at the Aness International Animated Film Festival in June 2013, a few months after the premiere of Sam Raimi's Oz: The Great and Terrible.
