Fun and Family Friendly Movies Disney & Beyond

I feel very blessed to be included in our area’s movie sneak peeks of upcoming Disney Movies as well as their affiliates.

For 2018 so far two movies are just fantastic for the whole family. Coming out today is “A Wrinkle in Time”. Accompanied by my grown daughter who had just finished reading the book and my husband, we are a fairly diverse trio when it comes to enjoying movies. A Wrinkle in Time was able to deliver.

Reece Witherspoon is delightful in her role as Mrs. Whatsit. You can see a clip below. Oprah does not have a huge role in this movie however when she speaks you want to stand up and applaud. Truly words of hope we all need to hear right now.

A Wrinkle in Time

From visionary director Ava DuVernay comes Disney’s “A Wrinkle in Time,” an epic adventure based on Madeleine L’Engle’s timeless classic which takes audiences across dimensions of time and space, examining the nature of darkness versus light and, ultimately, the triumph of love. Through one girl’s transformative journey led by three celestial guides, we discover that strength comes from embracing one’s individuality and that the best way to triumph over fear is to travel by one’s own light.

Directed by Emmy winner and Oscar and Golden Globe nominee Ava DuVernay from a screenplay by Oscar-winner Jennifer Lee based upon the beloved novel by Madeleine L’Engle, “A Wrinkle in Time” stars: two-time Academy Award nominee Oprah Winfrey, Oscar and Emmy winner Reese Witherspoon, Emmy nominee Mindy Kaling, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Michael Peňa and introducing Storm Reid, with two-time Emmy winner Zach Galifianakis and Emmy nominee Chris Pine.

Produced by Jim Whitaker and Catherine Hand with Doug Merrifield serving as executive producer, the film also boasts an impressive creative team featuring some of the most talented artisans working today, including: Tobias Schliessler, ASC as director of photography, Naomi Shohan as production designer, Oscar(R)-nominee Spencer Averick as film editor, two-time Academy Award-nominee Paco Delgado as costume designer and four-time Emmy nominee Ramin Djawadi as composer.
