**The Wiz (1978) – Original Italian 4 Fogli Movie Poster – Michael Jackson / Diana Ross – I’m Magic**
Original vintage Italian theatrical movie poster for **The Wiz (1978)**, released in Italy as **“I’m Magic (Sono Magico)”**, directed by acclaimed filmmaker **Sidney Lumet**.
This is the impressive large-format Italian **4 Fogli (Two-Panel / 2P)** poster, measuring approximately **140 × 198 cm (55 × 78 inches)**.
A spectacular piece of **Michael Jackson memorabilia**, the Italian poster features an enormous central image of the young **Michael Jackson as the Scarecrow**, dramatically posed against the illuminated New York skyline.
*The Wiz* is the celebrated musical reimagining of **The Wizard of Oz**, adapted from the successful Broadway musical and featuring an extraordinary cast of African-American music and entertainment stars.
The film stars **Diana Ross as Dorothy**, **Michael Jackson as the Scarecrow**, Nipsey Russell as the Tin Man, Ted Ross as the Cowardly Lion, **Lena Horne as Glinda** and **Richard Pryor as The Wiz**.
The film also represents an important moment in Michael Jackson’s career. During the production he worked with musical supervisor **Quincy Jones**, beginning the professional relationship that would soon produce Jackson’s landmark solo albums *Off the Wall*, *Thriller* and *Bad*.
