Background
The film's director Ava DuVernay revealed the song in a tweet on 20 February 2018, alongside a GIF of Sade.[2] "I never thought she'd say yes, but asked anyway. She was kind plus 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."[3][4]
