“I was standing beside some amazing actors who made me step my game up,’ said Fantasia (who reprises her Broadway role as ‘Celie’ in the film) at CinemaCon earlier this year
My life was so much like hers at the time so stepping into her shoes night after night was heavy… so I had to pull up some things that I had buried but I felt safe doing it because my director and cast surrounded me and I was able to go back into that place. I am Celie.”
Moviegoers can expect to experience every emotion during the star-studded musical that shook up the box office with $18 million IN A DAY–the biggest Christmas Day opening since 2009.
“You’re gonna laugh, you’re gonna cry, everybody brings it,’ she added. ‘But in the end, you’ll be healed. Because guess what? I was healed.”
