“A Wrinkle In Time” is one of those rare tomes that sticks with you from childhood.  While not as overwhelmingly as popular as “The Chronicles of Narnia”, or “The Dragonriders Of Pern” (which is also getting the movie treatment), Meg Murray’s adventures are a widely beloved story.

It looks like Disney is moving forward with their film adaptation, and Frozen co-writer director Jennifer Lee will be writing the screenplay/script. Variety goes on to say “Wrinkle in Time” was one of Lee’s favorite novels as a child, and she impressed Disney executives with her take on the project, which emphasizes a strong female-driven narrative and creatively approaches the science fiction and world-building elements of the book.

While Lee adapts “A Wrinkle in Time,” she will continue in her role as part of Walt Disney Animation’s story trust and remain active in projects in development at the division that scored with Frozen — its biggest hit ever at the box office with nearly $1.3 billion — and has Big Hero 6, based on a Marvel property, out Nov. 7.
