Oprah Winfrey reveals the best $35,000 she ever earned: It came when she starred as Sofia in Steven Spielberg’s 1985 film ‘The Color Purple.'

Oprah Winfrey says debuting in Steven Spielberg’s 1985 movie 'The Color Purple' resulted in one of the most meaningful paychecks she's ever earned. Winfrey sat down with Essence for a cover story published Tuesday to discuss the upcoming movie musical based on Alice Walker's 1982 Pulitzer-winning novel, and revisited her experience debuting on the big screen as Sofia. “This is a full-circle moment,” she said.

” Winfrey's 1985 character will be played by 'Orange Is the New Black' star Brooks, who played Tasha 'Taystee' Jefferson in the prison drama. Brooks thanked the actor and television host for “leaving space for me but also being there, to hold my hand and answer that phone call when I needed you.” Winfrey responded by thanking the cast of the forthcoming adaptation.
