Yas, EGOT Queen.

I would os be here for this but I ant her to play Dorothy (i dont care if she is too old for the role)
I dont want her to be Glenda the good witch. its such a small role if they are doing the classic Wizard of OZ :/

Queen should play Dorothy.

This reminded of Raven.

Wasn't she casted to be the good witch in that episode of That's So Raven? and she got mad at it cause she had to stay under the table the whole time and only say one word

I KNEW this would happen! OMG! Such an iconic role!!!

Serayah could be somewhat age appropriate for Dorothy.

Eh. I don't see her as a Glinda. They should get Kerry Washington!

What about 'A Star is Born?'

Fix it Jesus.

She was on my short list as well, along with:

- Keke Palmer
- Jojo
- Amandla Steinberg ( Rue from the Hunger Games)

Funny that Diana was exactly Bey's age now when she basically muscled her way into the Dorothy role. Seems interesting tho. I wonder what part she will end up with if she ends up signing on. In the first Wiz film, Dorothy was 24 -- Bey could pull off mid-20s if she wanted to flex and demand the lead.

JoJo is white so that won't work.

Wait, omg

I'm not getting my hopes up yet tbh. It is not set in stone, so I don't wanna feel let down if she doesn't end up playing the part. But I can and will be hoping and praying for it!

TWOZ/The Wiz/Wicked are all among my favorite stories ever, like... I wouldn't have ever even began to dream that my favorite artist would be somehow intertwined into any of them aside from singing OTR.

Well, critics hated the major change the movie had to accommodate Ross, and it was a box office failure.

Dorothy Mills who originated the role on Broadway was 17 when it opened there.
I have a feeling a live adaptation of the Broadway musical would want to be at least somewhat faithful.

For the touring version of The Wiz, 18-year-old Renee C Harris starred.

Lol truly the Diana Ross of her generation
