The actresses, who play the witches in the prequel to the 1939 classic film “The Wizard of Oz,” followed the yellow brick road to the LA launch for “Oz The Great and Powerful” at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles on Wednesday, February 13, 2013.
Rachel Weisz, who plays Evanora, the Wicked Witch of the East, looked stunning in an orange Victoria Beckham gown. Mila Kunis, was beautiful in a cream lace Dolce & Gabbana prom dress and Christian Louboutin heels while Michelle Williams opted for a white Prada dress with flower embroidery.
In addition to the female leads, James Franco, the star of the movie in the title role, also walked the carpet after filming a promo on a full size hot air balloon, hovering over Hollywood Boulevard. It was quite the spectacle and a bit surreal as the fans, lining the street, cheered with each blast released from the hot air burner to keep the balloon afloat.
Also on hand for the event was the Director Sam Raimi and celebrity guests including Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sarah Chalke and Tobey Maguire.
