Reese Witherspoon and Mindy Kaling are both in talks for A Wrinkle In Time
Ava DuVernay’s A Wrinkle In Time may have locked down its three “witches,” with Variety reporting that Reese Witherspoon and Mindy Kaling are both in talks for the galaxy-spanning Disney film. Kaling will reportedly play Mrs. Who, offering guidance to Madeleine L’Engle’s time-tossed, tesseractin’ protagonists in the form of an endless string of multi-lingual quotes, while Witherspoon will play Mrs. Whatsit, a mysterious old woman who’s eventually revealed to be a kind of radiant angelic horse. (Witherspoon’s part was played by Alfre Woodard in the 2003 TV-movie version of L’Engle’s beloved book.)
