I never thought she’d say yes, but asked anyway. She was kind + giving. A goddess. We began a journey together that I’ll never forget. Proud to announce that Sade has created an original song for WRINKLE IN TIME. It’s entitled “Flower of the Universe.” And it’s a dream come true. pic.twitter.com/FdXrZ1MFMO

A Wrinkle in Time’s director, Ava DuVernay made the announcement on Twitter upon releasing news about the soundtrack. DuVernay tweeted her appreciation for Sade’s contribution, stating that she didn’t think she would agree, but grateful for being kind and giving. The director continues calling the journey one that, “I’ll never forget…and a dream come true.” The connection of their “creative partnership” caused DuVernay to “reverse engineer the usual process and use her lyrics as actual dialogue within the film.”
My hope was to gather dynamic women artists to craft a majestic soundtrack for Meg’s journey. Demi, thank you for “I BELIEVE.” With our brother, @djkhaled, you made magic. https://t.co/JyUYg1CMZ2
