BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Drew Barrymore Set To Revisit Oz

Drew Barrymore Set To Revisit Oz

Surrender Dorothy, yet another Wizard of Oz sequel, has been resurrected. The project was first announced in 2002. It was based on a Zach Helm script (Stranger Than Fiction) and had Drew Barrymore attached to star. She is now attached to direct, as a follow-up to her directorial debut, Whip It.

The original project seemingly stalled back in the early aughts. In fact, I can’t even find a mention of it since October 2002, but with the proliferation of Oz projects in development, there’s no time like now to resurrect an old idea. The project is still set up at Warner Brothers and Flower Films (Barrymore’s production company), though I have no word on whether she’s still planning to star as the great, great granddaughter of Dorothy who has to learn how to use the power of those ruby red slippers to keep the Wicked Witch of the West from taking control of the kingdoms of Earth and Oz. (That story doesn’t sound too dissimilar to Josh Olson’s version, which is also in development, along with a prequel that focuses on the Wizard, to which Robert Downey, Jr. is attached).

It’s wishful thinking, perhaps, but given Barrymore’s relationship with Ellen Page now, it might be cool to see her star as the lead in this sequel, as Page is closer in age to Barrymore when she was first offered the part. Also, I like thinking of Ellen Page as Drew Barrymore’s muse. And by muse, of course I mean: Make-out partner.
