\"\"<\/a>It just doesn’t quite feel like a Sam Raimi-directed film without some sort of cameo from his good friend and Evil Dead<\/strong> series collaborator Bruce Campbell, and when Campbell tweeted last month<\/a> that he wasn’t going to make an appearance in Raimi’s upcoming Oz: The Great And Powerful<\/strong>, fans were a bit disappointed.<\/p>\n

Well, it’s time to turn that frown upside down as the actor has told The Shiznet<\/a> that he will be in the film after all!<\/p>\n

The scene that I shot was a page [of the script] and it took all day. It was great to see the scope of Oz and to see the detail, and the craftsmanship and the professionalism and the incredible stuff that they\u2019re doing visually in every other way.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As always, Campbell plays coy about the nature of his cameo, saying only –<\/p>\n

I play a pivotal role. It involves me and Oz \u2013 that\u2019s James Franco \u2013 and let\u2019s just say that we have a confrontation. It was a very fun role to do actually.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Keep in my that Campbell has jokingly inflated the importance of his roles in Raimi’s Spider-Man<\/strong> trilogy in the past<\/a>, going so far as to say that he has been the only actor to ever defeat Spider-Man.<\/p>\n

My guess would be that Campbell is probably playing a fellow carnival worker of Franco’s future Wizard of Oz, back in the days before he journeyed from Kansas to that magical land over the rainbow.<\/p>\n

We’ll find out when Oz: The Great And Powerful<\/strong> opens on March 8, 2013.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

The popular cult actor will make an appearance in his friend’s latest film.<\/div>\n
