The visually extravagant film – featuring eye-catching costumes by Oscar-nominee Paco Delgado – follows teen Meg Murry, who goes in search of her missing father with the help of three celestial beings.

Meg is a typical middle school student struggling with issues of self-worth and just wanting to fit in. But what makes her not so typical is the fact that she’s the daughter of two world-renowned physicists, and she is uniquely gifted.

Together with Meg’s brother Charles Wallace, they meet Mrs Which, Mrs Whatsit and Mrs Who (Winfrey, Witherspoon and Kaling) who have journeyed to Earth to help search for Meg’s father (Pine).

Travelling via a wrinkling of time and space, they are transported to worlds beyond their imagination where they must confront an evil force. To make it back home, Meg must harness the strength necessary to defeat the darkness rapidly enveloping the universe.
