help Emerald City FAQ

How many episodes of Emerald City are there, and was it renewed?

There are 10 episodes in the single season, which aired on NBC in early 2017. NBC cancelled the show in May 2017, so there is no second season.

Who directed Emerald City?

Tarsem Singh, the visually distinctive director of The Cell, The Fall, and Immortals, directed the episodes. His stylized imagery is a big part of why the show looks so different from other network fantasy dramas.

Who plays Dorothy and the Wizard in Emerald City?

Adria Arjona, later known as Bix in Andor, plays Dorothy, while Vincent D'Onofrio plays the Wizard of Oz. The cast also includes Oliver Jackson-Cohen and Ana Ularu as the witches.

Is Emerald City family-friendly like The Wizard of Oz?

Not really — despite the Oz branding, it's a dark, adult reimagining with violence, grim settings, and mature themes. Parents expecting the tone of the 1939 film or Wicked should know this 2017 series skews far more serious and graphic.
