Am I the only one that’s in love with The Wiz? This is one of the best stories of all time! Over the past couple of weeks I’ve seen who will be the new generation Wiz and I’m excited!

New star on the scene Shanice Williams stars as Dorothy. She is easing on down with Neyo as the Tin Man, Elijah Kelly as the Scarecrow and David Alan Grier as the Cowardly Lion. Of course Queen Latifah who also helped produce the project is The Wiz.

The Wiz airs December 3rd at 8 p.m on NBC.

Check out the 1978 Wiz cast compared to the new. Do you think it will be just as good?
