Emerald CityEPs discuss the series debut and those gorgeous locations

Here, they introduce the two-part series premiere with The Beast Forever and Prison of the Abject.

Havent we been down this yellow brick road before?

You may be asking yourself this question as you decide to watch our new show,Emerald City.

It was a question we certainly asked ourselves before we took on this iconic project.

Well…

You havent.

All of these iconic characters come to life inEmerald City, but how they reveal themselves will surprise you.

The timelessness of the books certainly surprised us when we read them.

And, of course, there will always be No place like home.

But how do you create a world no ones ever seen before?

You hire the right director.

Tarsem Singh is a brilliant visual storyteller.
