Rachel Weisz: Headed to Oz?

Shes always up for a challenge, and Rachel Weisz is in talks to star in the upcoming Oz: The Great and Powerful.

The Runaway Jury hottie would play the villainess in the Disney prequel to the beloved classic The Wizard of Oz.

Other stars that have already signed on for the gig are James Franco (Oz) and James Franco (Theadora), making this a project to keep tabs on.

If Rachel scores the job, it will add to her already varied body of work, including The Mummy and The Constant Gardner.
