Disney’s A Wrinkle In Time has its patriarch, with Chris Pine joining the Ava DuVernay-directed tentpole.
The Star Trek alum will play Mr. Murray, husband to the Gugu Mbatha-Raw-portrayed Dr. Kate Murray, I’ve learned.
Pine is expected to get in front of the camera for DuVernay before the end of the year with filming in Los Angeles.
A Wrinkle In Time involves a young girl whose government scientist father has gone missing after working on a mysterious project called a tesseract, which involves being transported to a fifth dimension with mysterious inhabited planets. She takes part in a search for her father and sees some incredible creatures along the way.
Directed by DuVernay from a script by Frozen co-writer Jennifer Lee, Storm Reid also stars, along with Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, and Mindy Kaling also aboard.
A Wrinkle in Time was the first tentpole to receive tax credits under the California Film Commission’s new tax incentives program.
Pine is repped by CAA and John Carrabino Management.
