Vulture reports Black Swan actress Mila Kunis, 27, has walked away from the Hughes Brothers-directed live-action '80s remake Akira in favor of the Oz film.
The film’s director, Sam Riami, and James Franco reportedly approached Kunis to play Theodorah, the younger sister of Evanorah, who eventually becomes the Wicked Witch of the West.
The two stars’ involvement in the film has yet to be confirmed, however. There is also little known about the plot, except that it is a prequel to the original 1939 film.
