Sci Fi's Ozsome Series Casts Its Dorothy

Speaking of Bones, Emily Deschanel's sister, Zooey Deschanel, has landed the female lead in Tin Man, Sci Fi Channel's trippy retelling of The Wizard of Oz. Per Variety, Deschanel will play DG, a young woman who finds herself transported from her dull existence into the fantasy-filled world of The O.Z. (Outer Zone). As previously reported, Alan Cumming is on board as a friend of Dorothy's, the Scarecrow-like Glitch. The six-hour miniseries is eyed for a December debut.

As long as she's not going by Trillian, I'm happy. Hmm...Zooey Deschanel and Alan Cumming? Can we hope for a little singing maybe?

I get the heebie jeebies every time I hear about this project. Is it just me?

DG? The O.Z.? Glitch? Six hours?!? Oy!

Who's writing this movie? A flying monkey?

Everybody sing along: If I only had a gun!
