Producer Oprah Winfrey and director Bazawule shared the trailer completely throughout a digital occasion on May 22. The footage showcases the film’s epic solid throughout a time-spanning narrative, with exuberant fantasy and dream sequences and pictures of the young Celie (played by “The Little Mermaid” breakout Halle Bailey) juxtaposed with an older Celie, who escapes her current into soul-stirring musical reverie. A stage musical adaptation of Walker’s e-book debuted on Broadway in 2005, with Celie performed by the likes of LaChanze and Cynthia Erivo all through its run and revival.
