Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton-Produced 'Wizard Of Oz' Series Headed To Prime Video

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton have revealed they are working on a Wizard of Oz television series as executive producers.

The series, titled "Dorothy," will be produce by Gina Matthews under her Little Engine label.

It is a contemporary, music-infused young adult series, the latest reinterpretation of L. Frank Baum's classic books.

"It's a creative and modern take on a classic, and being part of something that blends music, emotion, and the character of Dorothy is inspiring to me," Stefani said in a statement.

The show will air on Amazon's Prime Video, although its release date has not yet been decided.

"I've been in love with The Wizard of Oz books since I was a child," says Matthews. "The story reminds us of the qualities we need to get through hard times, and Dorothy is a symbol of strength who shows us that with a little kindness — and a lot of grit — we can not only achieve great things but also lift up those around us. I'm excited to bring that message to the world, now more than ever."
