Film Synopsis:
When
Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious
ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he
thinks he’s hit the jackpot. Fame
and fortune are his for the taking. That is until he meets three
witches: Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda
(Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard
everyone’s been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems
facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is
good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to
use through illusion, ingenuity and even a bit of wizardry, Oscar
transforms himself not only into a great wizard but into a better man as
well.

celebration of the in-home release, Temple Run: Oz will introduce China
