NBC recently unveiled a new set of teaser images from upcoming series Emerald City. Directed by Tarsem Singh, Emerald City is based on the original 14-book series by Frank L. Baum. The series is a modern retelling of the classic tale, and stars Adria Arjona as a 20-year-old Dorothy.

Ugandan-born, German actress Florence Kasumba stuns in yet another image for her role as The Wicked Witch of the East. Images of Kasumba, who played a Wakandan bodyguard from Captain America: Civil War, went viral this year. Kasumba will also appear in the upcoming Wonder Woman movie, set for a 2017 release.

Created by Matthew Arnold, Emerald City stars Vincent D’Onofrio as the Wizard, Joely Richardson as Glinda the Good Witch, and Oliver Jackson-Cohen as Dorothy’s love interest Lucas.
