Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry have long been friends and collaborators — but fans have never seen the stars like this before!
The 62-year-old talk show giant has joined Perry in the cast of the upcoming animated holiday film The Star, PEOPLE confirms.
The film, from Oscar-nominated writer-director Timothy Reckart (Head Over Heels), tells the story of a brave little donkey named Bo (The Walking Dead‘s Steven Yeun) and his animal friends who follow the Star and become the accidental heroes of the greatest story every told — the first Christmas.
Winfrey, Perry and 30 Rock vet Tracy Morgan will voice Deborah, Cyrus and Flexis, respectively — three wisecracking camels who happen to be traveling with the Three Wise Men.
