The stars stepped out for the world premiere of "The Color Purple."
The Los Angeles event, complete with a purple carpet, took place Dec. 6 and featured executive producer Oprah Winfrey, cast members Fantasia, Danielle Brooks, Halle Bailey and more. Plus, other notable celebrities, such as Quinta Brunson, Steven Spielberg and Tyler Perry were in attendance.
The film is a musical adaptation of the Broadway play, which ran in 2005 and 2015. These installments and the original 1985 movie, starring Winfrey and directed by Spielberg, all stem from Alice Walker’s 1982 book, "The Color Purple." The story is set in the south in the 1900s and follows four women who survive domestic and sexual violence thanks to one another’s support.
“I think women in particular will be healed from this movie and its portrayal of sisterhood,” Winfrey told Essence in an interview published Oct. 17.
The sisterhood was on full display Wednesday night at the premiere. Here's some of those who attended.
