Guess what they are doing redoing one of the classics. Well not really a reboot Warner Bros. was reported as saying that Dakota Fanning is tabbed to star in the "remake", sequel if you will of the Wizard of OZ.
This is really an idea that has been kicked around for years I guess. Todd McFarlane has been trying to make this version since 1997. Like most remakes they are trying to make it "darker" and "more action packed" version. What I don't understand is that the original author of the OZ world L Frank Baum has already written multiple sequels that head back to the wonderful world of OZ. They even made a movie of one the little seen Return to OZ (I saw it).
The Daily Express is the source of this story and for what it's worth they are a British tabloid. With the reputations of some of those bad boys you can take this with a grain of salt. According to the Express rumor has it Fanning will be the granddaughter of Dorthy.
