Oprah Winfrey has dropped a hint she\u2019s planning to return to acting.<\/p>\n
The TV titan has performed in a number of movies while also juggling her career as a talk show host, notably winning a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination for her performance in 1985 drama \u201cThe Color Purple\u201d and starring in films such as \u201cThe Butler\u201d and \u201cSelma\u201d with her last major acting role coming four years ago in Ava DuVernay\u2019s 2018 offering \u201cA Wrinkle in Time\u201d.<\/p>\n
Now Winfrey has appeared in Variety\u2019s The Power of Women Issue alongside moviemaker DuVernay and suggested a big screen return is on the cards. <\/p>\n
When asked about taking on another acting role, Winfrey said: \u201cListen, I am living on a mount in Maui \u2026 \u201c<\/p>\n
DuVernay then chimed in, saying: \u201cBut if something perfect came along \u2026 \u201d prompting Winfrey to add: \u201cI actually do think something perfect is coming, and I kind of know what it is.<\/p>\n
\u201cLet me tell you, it takes a lot to get me off the porch.\u201d<\/p>\n
Winfrey didn\u2019t give any more details but the exchange suggested another project with DuVernay is on the cards after they previously worked together on \u201cA Wrinkle in Time\u201d, \u201cSelma\u201d as well as \u201cQueen Sugar\u201d for Winfrey\u2019s OWN TV network and the 2019 TV series \u201cWhen They See Us\u201d, which was helmed by Winfrey as an executive producer.<\/p>\n
During the interview DuVernay appeared to push her friend in the direction of another acting role, telling her: \u201cI hope that she acts more. She is, I think, the finest actress of her category.\u201d<\/p>\n
Winfrey then joked: \u201cThat means \u2018One who was a former talk show host\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n
