The Color Purple is reportedly heading back to the screen, this time in the form of the Oprah Winfrey-produced Broadway musical currently starring American Idol winner Fantasia Barrino. "'That's going to happen and I'm going to do it,' the former Idol champ said, smiling broadly. 'They're going to work with me. They don't have to [but] that's a favor,' Fantasia said. 'Working with someone like Miss Oprah who's so talented and amazing - It's a blessing.'" Approached for comment, Miss Oprah explained, "All my life I had to fight. I had to fight my daddy. I had to fight my uncles. I had to fight my brothers. A girl child ain't safe in a family of men, but I ain't never thought I'd have the opportunity to bring this timeless musical adventure into theaters everywhere, Summer 2009! And don't forget to watch Oprah's Big Give, ABC Sundays at 9!" [moviesblog.mtv.com]
