Dorothy, the lion, scarecrow, tin-man, the wicked witch, oz, and the good witch; what stars should be cast for the roles if/when a Wiz remake is done? To try and stay true to the roles the people first must have the talent for the role. Weather it requires singing, acting, or dancing. Also the cast should be made up of respected entertainers who are admired not because they have a platinum CD but because they have demonstrated the skills for the roles in previous performances. In other words, when most people see your list, whether they agree or not, they a least should say that they could see your selections legitimately playing the roles. My list is made up of:
Dorothy - Beyonce or Janet Jackson
The Lion - Charles S. Dutton or Busta Rhymes
Scarecrow - Omarion
Tin Man - Bernie Mac
Wicked Witch - Monque
Oz - Samuel Jackson
Good Witch - Loretta Divine or Jill Scott
Director - Spike Lee
When a remake of the Wiz is done who ever is doing the casting hopefully will take this post and its comments into consideration. Now let see what kind of list you can come up with?
