When it comes to books that have defined generations, A Wrinkle in Time is pretty high up on the list. And now, we’re getting a movie!
Many kids set out their reading goals and start with A Wrinkle in Time. It’s easy, you can pick it up at any age and it’s enjoyable and, now we’re going to have a brand new movie about the Madeleine L’Engle novel.
Following Meg and her brother, Charles Wallace, with their friend Calvin, these three go into space to try and find the mysterious Dr. Alexander Murray. Spoiler alert, it’s their father. Well, it’s not really a spoiler since that’s the only reason these three leave home in the first place.
They go with the help of Mrs. Which, Mrs. Whatsit, and Mrs. Who, and the entire book is just fun from start to finish. In fact, it’s part of an entire series! We don’t yet know if we will get the entire series yet, but at least we’re getting A Wrinkle in Time, which hits theaters on March 9, 2018.
Directed by Ava DuVernay, this diverse cast is taking the internet by storm and has everyone excited for what’s to come with this movie. It’s going to be a pretty great adaptation and we’re excited.
Now, let’s check out the first trailer:
As you can see, the movie has a pretty amazing cast. With Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, Chris Pine and more, this is definitely one movie that you’re not going to want to miss. More importantly, you even have enough time now to go out and read the book before it comes out.
Next: We have pictures from a Wrinkle in Time and we’re excited!
