Lupita Nyong’o's first trip to Disneyland

Lupita Nyong'o, 32, screams her way down Splash Mountain during her first trip to Disneyland while having fun with friends on Sunday. The Oscar winner was wearing a blue T-shirt written ME I [heart] Nairobi along a pair of sparkly Minnie Mouse ears with a silver bow atop her curly hair. It was triple duty for the star, who was there to promote Star Wars: The Force Awakens, The Jungle Book and The Queen Of Katwe. Lupita’s role in the latest Star Wars offering remains shrouded in mystery, but in The Jungle Book she provides the voice for Mowgli's wolf mother Raksha. She was formally announced as the star of The Queen Of, along with with The Butler's David Oyelowo and newcomer Medina Nalwanga. The film is based on the true story of a girl from rural Uganda who dreams of leaving her poverty-stricken home behind to become a champion chess player.
