Hip-hop artist Pras Michel of the Fugees has optioned film and TV rights to comic series Dark Oz, originally published by Caliber Comics. The storyline follows an older Dorothy Gale in a "gothic and more macabre" setting as she journeys through Oz with the characters known to millions via Frank L. Baum's "Wonderful Wizard of Oz." The screenplay was adapted from the work of original comic creators Aaron Denenberg, Ralph Griffith and Stuart Kerr with plans to begin production at the end of 2008. It will be a live-action version of the comic trilogy, which Michel intends to produce as three separate films. In addition to producing duties, Michel plans to star as the Scarecrow. Visit the official website for some looks at the comic.

Rollstuhlwolf 9:22pm, March 2, 2008 Just so people know, my Netcraft toolbar in Firefox says that the dark Oz website is a high risk phishing site. This means contacting anyone through the links or email there could be potentially hazardous and cause you to be submitted to email spam lists. Just a word of warning. The comics are great, unfortunately the site is very amateurish and not very safe.
