Let’s Recast The Wiz: Our Picks For The 2015 Remake
Miss One, the Good Witch of the North: If we recall, it was numbers running Miss One, played by Thelma Carpenter, who gave a shoeless Dorothy a pair of snazzy silver stilettos to rock on her journey to see the wiz. No, they weren’t Tom Ford but they had other fashionable magic powers, which with one click of the heel transformed into a stunning pair of ruby red freakum pumps (which, by the way, is the title song on the new Beyonce-produced soundtrack). Only a bold swanky witch would demand a costume change that dramatic. That’s why I nominated the legendary Grace Jones for this role. And I also nominated that we give her some macaroni noodles, some ostrich feathers and a glue gun and let her to design her own Good Witch costume. Tom Ford, who?
