A24 Greenlights ‘After Yang’; Colin Farrell To Star & Kogonada To Direct
by Mike Fleming Jr - February 28, 2019 8:30am

EXCLUSIVE: A24 has come aboard and greenlighted After Yang, with Colin Farrell set to star in an adaptation of the Alexander Weinstein short story Saying Goodbye to Yang. The film was scripted and will be directed by Kogonada, the South Korea-born writer-director who debuted on the John Cho starrer Columbus. Theresa Park and her Per Capita Productions will produce with Cinereach.

After Yang follows a father and daughter as they try to save the life of their robotic family member.

Farrell next stars in the Tim Burton-directed Dumbo at Disney, this after Widows, Killing of a Sacred Deer and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Farrell is repped by CAA, managers Ilene Feldman and Claudine Farrell, as well as Hansen, Jacobson. Kogonada is with UTA and Gang Tyre.

The film was initiated by Park, via her Per Capita Productions, who teamed with Cinereach last summer to buy the short story and set Kogonada to adapt it. She is also producing with Blossom Films’ Nicole Kidman and Per Saari an adaptation of the Janice Y.K. Lee novel The Expatriates, which Amazon has ordered to series. Park is also teamed with Blossom and Made Up Stories on the Endeavor Content series Roar, based on Cecelia Ahern’s book of short stories. Cinereach’s recent films include We the Animals, Sorry to Bother You, Shirkers and Black Mother, and the producer is currently in production on the stop-motion film Marcel The Shell with Shoes On.

I like the premise, and I adore Colin!

Himmel · 02-28-2019, 04:39 PM

Sounds good, count me in.

AaronJ · 02-28-2019, 04:48 PM

Mostly anything with Colin is worth watching.

Hoke Moseley · 02-28-2019, 04:50 PM

Sounds like a good pairing... but that premise doesn't do much for me.

Gacivory · 02-28-2019, 05:24 PM

Sounds interesting! I’m loving Colin Farrell’s current career!!

I agree. I've always pretty much liked the guy, but now he's making a lot of very interesting films.

kylor · 02-28-2019, 05:40 PM

A bit like Bicentennial Man but with Colin Farrell? Yeah, I'll give it a shot.

I still need to see Columbus, but this sounds interesting.

Kogonda? You know it’s going to be something special, dude has a science level knowledge of cinema. Columbus was quite astonishing with what he could do with so little.

This should be up on the Showtime app within a few hours, if not sooner.

a truly wonderful and melancholic movie.
Hoping for a 4K-UHD. Simply gorgeous!

Saw this in theaters tonight. Was getting pretty bored and was uninterested for the first half. But then something clicked and I was all in. Cried a bit. Made me question a lot of things. Just a really solid, heartfelt movie about family, loss, grief, what it means to be human, and a handful of other things. It's great.

Cremildo · 03-07-2022, 02:17 PM

I don't think I've ever been so emotionally affected by such an understated movie.

kylor · 03-07-2022, 03:09 PM

The movie bored me to near death. I only watched it completely in hopes it would get better at some point but it never did. 0/5.

it greatly affected me as well - it's so tranquil and hypnotic - I fell under it's spell

technical question: this is 7.1 surround sound, right? because what I was hearing on a Dolby Atmos system last week, the sound design was so ethereal and just floating around the auditorium to beautiful effect.
