New 'A Wrinkle in Time' Trailer Shows Meg Murry's Loneliness Over Her Father's Disappearance
Walt Disney Studios Canada has dropped a new trailer for "A Wrinkle in Time," one of Disney's most highly anticipated fantasy films this 2018. This new trailer is the third one released for the film and offers a new footage of lead character Meg Murry (Storm Reid) and her galactic adventure.
In the new footage, Principal Jenkins (Andre Holland) tells Meg Murry that she should not always use the disappearance of her father, Dr. Alex Murry (Chris Pine), as an excuse for her behavior. Another scene in the clip offers a first look at Meg Murry's home, where she is shown asking her mother, Dr. Kate Murry (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) if her father is really gone.
The new trailer also features Canadian singer Alessia Cara's song "Scars to Your Beautiful" — which is included in the "A Wrinkle in Time" soundtrack. It also offers a brief scene that sheds light on where the film's title is derived. Basically, this new trailer shows the struggles of Meg Murry as a young girl who has lost her father. The clip does not only show her loneliness over her father's disappearance but also her sadness over the fact that she does not have friends in school.
