Michelle Williams Is Set To Play Glinda In New 'Oz' Movie!


The picky looking actress has been picked to star as Glinda the Good Witch in Disney's 'Oz: The Great and Powerful'.

Michelle Williams will join a fabulous cast in Disney's prequel to the classic 1939 'Wizard of Oz'. It's rumored that director Sam Raimi was fighting for actress Hilary Swank to get the part but Disney wanted Williams.

I think Michelle was definitely the best choice of the two as she sort of has that innocent look to her. She'll be joining James Franco (as the salesman/Wizard), Mila Kunis (Theodora/pre-wicked Witch of the West) and Rachel Weisz (Evanora/already the wicked Witch).

Sounds like a great cast and I can't wait to see the movie!
