New TV spot, posters for Disney’s ‘A Wrinkle in Time’
Disney invites audiences to “tesser” into 2018 with a new TV spot and motion posters for the forthcoming Ava DuVernay-directed adaptation of Madeleine L’Engle’s classic young adult novel, A Wrinkle in Time.
The new TV spot released on Facebook with Wrinkle starring Storm Reid (12 Years a Slave) as the book’s young heroine Meg Murry. Fans get glimpses of the epic universes from the book punctuated by Oprah Winfrey’s Mrs. Which saying “Be a warrior!”
The spot was revisited for the Golden Globes, so check it out below.
In addition, Disney posted trippy motion posters featuring the movie’s supernatural beings, the three “celestials,” that help Meg and her crew tesser (i.e. “fold” and “wrinkle”) through the universe: Winfrey as Mrs. Which, Reese Witherspoon as Mrs. Whatsit, and Mindy Kaling as Mrs. Who.
