A photo has been released from Half of a Yellow Sun, a film adaptation of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie's novel. "You don't hear of many British-Nigerian co-productions, but judging by the talent involved in the one that's currently making its way to screens then we'd argue the two filmmaking nations should join forces more often," Indiewire noted. "The British Film Institute and a Nigerian private equity firm have combined to bring the bestselling (and Orange Prize for Fiction-winning) novel Half of a Yellow Sun to the screen and assembled a pretty impressive cast in doing so."
That cast includes Dominic Cooper, Thandie Newton, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Joseph Mawle, John Boyega and Anika Noni Rose. The film, which has been shooting since March in the U.K. and Nigeria, is expected to be released next year.
