Whatsit, helps guide the children through their journeys. Which, who along with (the not-yet-cast) Ms. The screenwriter responsible for adapting A Wrinkle in Time was Jennifer Lee, who cowrote Disney’s Frozen.
LIGHTS OUT 2 MINUTE MOVIE SERIES
The costar of The Color Purple and The Butler is in final talks with Walt Disney Pictures to costar in their adaptation of Madeleine L’Engle’s fantasy novel A Wrinkle in Time, which is the first in a series of four books (which Disney undoubtedly hopes will be four movies) about children who travel through time looking for their lost scientist father.

Sandberg made his debut with Lights Out, based on a 3 minute YouTube short starring his wife, and will start work immediately on ideas for the sequel. The film starred Teresa Palmer as a frightened sister who failed to stock up on spotlights and track lighting to battle a supernatural being only powerful in the dark.

One genre capable of success on a relative pittance of a budget is horror, which has already yielded summer hits in The Shallows, The Purge: Election Year, and The Conjuring 2.
Basically, when Hollywood studios swing for the fences, they sometimes pop out instead. This summer, some of the movies with big box office results ( Warcraft with $433 million global, The Legend of Tarzan with $119 million domestic) are still described as “disappointments,” largely due to their budgets ($160 million and $180 million, respectively).
