Oz Cinematic Universe

This is a sweeping, family-friendly fantasy adventure that reimagines L. Frank Baum’s Oz series as an ambitious yearly film saga blending heart, comedy, music, and spectacle. The story begins when Kansas farm girl Dorothy is swept by a cyclone into the magical land of Oz, where even her dog Toto talks and every road seems to lead toward destiny. Along the Yellow Brick Road she teams up with a quick-witted Scarecrow, a shy Tin Woodman, and a theatrical Cowardly Lion, each searching for the qualities they believe they lack. Together they confront the imposing Wizard, outsmart a terrifying Wicked Witch, and discover that courage, love, and intelligence were inside them all along. As the series continues year by year, Oz expands into a larger world of pumpkin-headed companions, clockwork soldiers, living china people, and rebellious princesses reclaiming their throne. Dorothy becomes both visitor and hero, returning repeatedly to help Princess Ozma protect the Emerald City from witches, tricksters, and the subterranean Nome King. Each chapter mixes comedy and wonder with surprisingly emotional stakes, turning Oz into a place that feels lived-in, strange, and deeply human. The tone balances Broadway-style musicality, fast-talking humor, and old-school practical fantasy in the spirit of classic 2000s adventure films. A star-studded ensemble—including Lilla Crawford, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Michael Cera, Jess Harnell, Kristin Chenoweth, Fiona Shaw, Octavia Spencer, and Michael Douglas—brings theatrical personality and warmth to every role. Later installments introduce memorable newcomers like Helena Bonham Carter, Keith David, Donald Glover, and Auliʻi Cravalho, making each film feel fresh while keeping the found-family core intact. What starts as one girl’s journey home evolves into an epic, interconnected saga about friendship, identity, and the power of ordinary people in an extraordinary world. The result is a charming, crowd-pleasing Oz cinematic universe that feels nostalgic, magical, and packed with big personalities audiences would return to year after year.

Midnight Muppets

Brian Henson boldly walks into Disney headquarters and negotiates The Muppets removal from Disney. Bill Barretta starts a campaign by creating a mini-series titled "After Dark with Pepé the King Prawn", a late night talk show starring Bill Barretta's characters. He brings Steve Whitmire and Frank Oz to come back and play their characters for the movement. Arjuna Myles creates the puppets, and Bill signs up thousands of professional scientists to create an invention that allows the illusion of puppeteering to climb to another level. Disney separates themselves from The Jim Henson Company and they recast Steve Whitmire as Kermit, keeping Matt Vogel in the cast. Frank Oz occasionally substitutes for Eric Jacobson. They finally decide around Christmas 2026 to release Midnight Muppets. An all-new adult show made by Bill Barretta, Colin Jost and Brian Henson.
