Screen Juice: Beyonce Heads To Africa?/ Ava DuVernay’s ‘Wrinkle In Time’ Nabs Release Date

Welcome to another edition of Screen Juice, the original TGJ feature launched to keep you in the loop with all things TV and Film related!

What’s on the menu today?

Beyonce‘s reported journey to the motherland and a release date for Ava DuVernay‘s ‘Wrinkle in Time.’

After referencing the Igbo Landing in her latest visual project ‘Lemonade’, Beyonce is reportedly making her way to the continent of Africa.

Why?

To deliver a free concert to fans in South Africa.

The report was given life when members of the star’s camp (including her mother) took to Instagram to reveal that they were in Durban for the Essence Festival.

Then, the event’s official website fuelled the flames of speculation by referencing one of the artist’s more memorable lyrics on its homepage.
