Synopsis
The Muppets' Wizard of Oz (2005) is a musical TV movie you can watch online on iFILM. Jim Henson's crew hijacks L. Frank Baum's fairy tale, sending aspiring singer Dorothy Gale spinning out of a Kansas trailer park and straight into Oz.
With Kermit as the Scarecrow and Gonzo, Fozzie and Miss Piggy along for the ride, Dorothy chases down a wizard who supposedly grants any wish. Ashanti voices Dorothy, Queen Latifah plays the Wicked Witch, and Jeffrey Tambor turns up as the Wizard himself. Keep an eye out for a quick Quentin Tarantino cameo, coaching Kermit on how to act.
Director Kirk Thatcher blends puppet chaos with the familiar yellow-brick road, swapping the wholesome classic for songs, gags and trademark Muppet anarchy. It lands best with anyone raised on Henson who fancies a cheekier spin on Oz. Stream The Muppets' Wizard of Oz (2005) online on iFILM.
