The first teaser trailer has been released for the upcoming animated 3D adventure from Summertime Entertainment, Dorothy of Oz. The movie is an adaptation of Frank L. Baum's classic story, which has an all-star voice cast which includes; Lea Michele, Martin Short, Jim Belushi, Dan Aykroyd, Kelsey Grammer, Megan Hilty, Hugh Dancy, Oliver Platt, Patrick Stewart and Bernadette Peters. Unfortunately, the movie doesn't look very good. It just looks like a cheap straight to DVD production. Maybe they're still working on the CGI effects.
The story follows Dorothy, as she returns to Kansas "to find it devastated by the tornado that sent her to Oz. Before she can react to the destruction of her home, she is transported back to Oz, where her three friends (Scarecrow, Lion and Tin Man) have disappeared. She meets a charming man made of marshmallows who can't quite think for himself, a tiny china doll princess whose bossiness is a cover for her fragility, and a tugboat with as many personalities as he has pieces. Dorothy must help this group band together against the Jester, a wicked new villain who believes that all of Oz should be under his control."
The musical feature will be released sometime in 2013.
