“The Wizard Of Oz” Gets Stunning Reimagining At The Sphere In Las Vegas

When the Sphere in Las Vegas opened in September 2023, most of us didn’t know what to expect. This massive sphere features a one-of-a-kind screen meant to provide guests with immersive experiences unlike any other. This has been done in a few ways. For sports fans, it’s provided the opportunity to feel as though you’re actually at the Daytona 500 in person.

Now, fans of The Wizard of Oz can witness this classic film in a whole new way. With a lot of editing (both AI and VFX effects were used), this movie was transformed to fit the Sphere’s massive screen. Needless to say, the world of Oz only looks more breathtaking when expanded. Catch a glimpse for yourself in the video below!

This unique version of the film will be available to the public in August 2025. But for now, lucky folks like Ernie are getting a first look. Luckily, they’re able to share it with us, too! Long-time fans of The Wizard of Oz have a lot to say about the film’s transformation, as you might imagine.

“FIRST LOOK at the Sphere’s presentation of ‘The Wizard of Oz’ in 16K resolution with the help of Google’s AI Technology!” Ernie writes in the caption of his video. “How do you feel about this reimagining of the classic film?”

“I genuinely would be embarrassed at how I’d be bawling,” someone admits in the comments, with another person agreeing, “The way I would be just crying.”

A third person has a bit of a suggestion that many people agree with: “Ok I need a version now where when she’s in Kansas it remains on the small screen but then once she goes to Oz it fills the entire screen.”
