Actor Chris Pine gushed over Oprah Winfrey after working with her on Disney’s space fantasy film A Wrinkle In Time.
“I loved working with Oprah,” the 36-year-old actor told Entertainment Tonight at Disney’s D23 Expo in Anaheim, California on Saturday, July 15.
In the film, Winfrey plays the wise and mysterious Mrs. Which, who helps a biracial girl travel through time and space to rescue her father.
Calling the 63-year-old media mogul “a force of nature”, Pine said, “There’s a lot to learn from a woman who has made this kind of impact, culturally and in the business, and you see why.”

A Wrinkle In Time also stars Reese Witherspoon, below right, Mindy Kaling, below left, and 14-year-old Storm Reid as Meg.
A Wrinkle In Time was adapted from a classic children’s novel by Madeleine L’Engle, and features a script written by Frozen‘s Jennifer Lee. It was directed by Selma‘s Ava DuVernay.
Winfrey admitted she had never read the book before director DuVernay approached her about the role, adding, “But when Ava mentioned it to me and told me it was a character who is one of the wisest women in the universe and is an angelic celestial being who is going to get to wear amazing costumes and get to work with Reese and Mindy… who wouldn’t say yes to that?”
A Wrinkle In Time opens everywhere on March 9, 2018. Watch the movie trailer below.

I loved the book and Oprah looks great!
It’s too early in the morning for that Oprah costume. I can’t even register what I’m looking at. Is it hilarious? Am I scared of it? Were eagle-dragons harmed in the making of this costume, should I call PETA? So many questions
Oprah is on another wavelength…I bet her vibe is overwhelmingly awesome ?
YASSSSS Ava!! Get that Disney money!!!
Love Oprah’s glasses.
Love Chris Pine.
I never read the book, either, though I know it is a classic. I might give it a read before the film comes out.
Love Oprah. Hopefully I’ll get to meet her myself someday.

Idk why that pic reminds me of Chris Tucker in 5th Element
Ive never read the book but I might have because the trailer look good
YES Ava!!!! I’m here for positive “brown girl” protagonist. Thank you Ava for straying away from the typical blueprint: little black child, in the crack and crime infested ghetto backdrop, possibly fatherless and drug addicted mother, being single handedly saved by their liberal and “allegedly progressive” teacher
Ruby Rhod! It’s the platinum locks.

He’s so cute. Love RDJr
Happy Berfday to ? MEEEE baaabbaayy?
Sing dat like pattie lol
I thought I read that book when I was in the 4th grade, but none of that looks familiar. But then again, I have read hundreds of books since then. Either way, I’m here for these 2018 movies starring black people in something other than service roles.
Chris isn’t aging well.
Actually it looks as if he may have the monster. ( but you didn’t hear that from me)
He’s had bad skin since he was a teenager, so I read on another site.
Happy Birthday to you!
Monique has no clout or power to actually impact Oprah’s life and that is why Oprah just let Monique flap her gums until she ran out of gas.
I am not talking about his skin, but thanks for the information.
I love Mindy ??
Lol
Happy Birthday….blessings and love!
Oh. Okay. You’re talking about the overall (aging wise). I felt the skin attributed to that. And yes, I too see shadows of a monster.
Happy Bday
Can’t wait for her to do Central Park 5. My popcorn is ready.
Oprah is getting skinny!!!!
Monique didn’t run outta gas. Her husband excuse her daddy is sleeping. When he wake up he will be in bytchmode again. People who have money don’t waste time arguing with people with no money.
Anybody see the movie Girl Trip this weekend? I am going to see it.
Yeah Monique is going to end up broke and alone after her ‘daddy’ finishes destroying her career.
Ava is a busy lady!!
Oprah loves her work, love how they made her up for her part.
Say Oprah, all I ask is that if you could let me have $1500 dollars
to get my Pinto repaired it stopped on me yesterday .
Paid her in total dust ?
I saw a clip of the young lady who had a husband like Monique that was murdered last week and her homecoming was OMG. They gave her what she deserved.
Oprah Monique said she would clean your horse
stables for you, and I will help her if you will let me.
Ain’t that the dang truth.
Enjoy your day.
So on point with that., truth.
Oprah looking goofy as fuk on that first pic.
Are you talking about the young lady from Lake Worth Florida who went from being homeless to earning over six figures?
Lake Worth is not far from where I live and yes the story was sad.
LOLLOLLOL!!!!!!!!
LOLLOLLOL!!!!!!!
I’m wondering about this movie also. Let us Roses know how it is…
Yes!!!! LOLLOLLOL!!!!!!!
It’s going to be great…..waiting for the white backlash in 5…4…..3….2…..1
Lololololol for real
Oprah hair looks flawless???
She needs a hair cut. She looks older.
Oprah looks spectacular. My daughter’s and I will be watching.
Imma see it after I get my hur did this weekend. So I might go and see it Sunday. You know how that goes.
Yep. The services was so good I could feel the vibes through the video. I saw some of the things she did and OMG she was a phenomenal woman.
I hate it for her but sometimes you have to keep your blessings to yourself because everyone isn’t happy for you even family members.
Yuup…
Mindy mouth. Duck mouth
Oprah is so beautiful to me!
I loved this book growing up. I can’t wait
