He was a cop, a
soldier, a cockroach, a priest, a serial killer, and a kingpin, and now he will
become a wizard, or better yet The Wizard in NBC's upcoming Emerald City.
Described as "a
man of science in a world of magic," D'Onofrio's Wizard, "rules
through inspiration, fear, and a tenuous accord with the grand witches".
Based on author L.
Frank Baum's series of Wizard of Oz novels, Emerald City is a 10-episode drama miniseries
that goes as follows:
"Swept up into the eye of a tornado, 20-year-old
Dorothy Gale (True Detective’s
Adria Arjona) is transported to another world — a mystical land in great peril,
where an all-powerful Wizard has outlawed magic and rules over the many
kingdoms. This is the fabled Land of Oz in a way you’ve never seen before —
where lethal warriors roam, wicked witches plot in the shadows and a young girl
from Kansas becomes the headstrong hero who holds the fate of their world in
her hands."
No premiere date has been announced.
