It was a purple reunion! This is the first time The Color Purple family has been together since the movie wrapped last year. As each one kept arriving, the room got louder—so much that they had to shush us so we didn’t interrupt the people in the next room watching the film. But to quote Danielle Brooks, “You can’t shush Black people at a family reunion!” 😂 Get ready to see a lot more from us cause we’re spreading purple love all season long 💜 The Color Purple is in theaters this Christmas Day

When you watch The Color Purple and walk out feeling fulfilled, just know it’s because this cast and crew showed up in deep gratitude to honor the work that came before them while paving a new path forward. This is your new Purple family and we hope you join them in theaters this weekend and then on HBO Max for a behind the scenes look at the making of 💜 | Oprah Winfrey
