Get ready to experience The Wizard of Oz like never before. Sphere Entertainment and Google have announced a partnership to bring an immersive version of the classic 1939 film to the Sphere in Las Vegas, launching August 28th, 2025.

To fill the venue’s 160,000-square-foot interior display plane, Sphere will use a combination of Google AI alongside traditional visual effects and filmmaking techniques to faithfully expand scenes and enhance characters from the beloved movie.

For instance, Google Cloud and Google DeepMind are working together to deploy fine-tuned Gemini models, Veo 2, and Imagen 3 to intelligently enhance the film's resolution, extend backgrounds, and digitally recreate existing characters who would otherwise not appear on the same screen.
