"News: my scene in Oz has been cut before shooting. It happens on epic flicks. Disappointed, but all good w/Sam. On to the next adventure!"
It wasn't known what character Bruce Campbell would have played, although it was said to be "pivotal." However, Bruce Campbell also revealed earlier today that he starred alongside James Franco in a project entitled Neglect.
"My scene in Oz got the axe, but I enjoyed doing a bit yesterday with Mr. James Franco in Neglect. Powerhouse stuff. He's one groovy cat."
Sam Raimi is directing Oz: The Great and Powerful from a screenplay by Mitchell Kapner and David Lindsay-Abaire. Production is currently under way in Pontiac, Michigan.
Oz: The Great and Powerful comes to theaters March 8th, 2013 and stars James Franco, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz, Michelle Williams, Abigail Spencer, Zach Braff, Joey King. The film is directed by Sam Raimi.

@ghostman It won't be. He said they cut it before they started shooting, so that scene won't even exist, but I feel your pain! I can't begin to imagine a Sam Raimi vehicle without Bruce Campbell, but I'm sure Ted Raimi will still make an appearance.

@eik1 I meant by his statement, it doesn't matter to me if he's in it or not. I read one of the warcraft books and loved it, I could see it as a film and I think Bruce would be an added bonus for that. But for Oz, he's not needed in it.
