Alexander Weinstein’s unsettling speculative fiction piece, Saying Goodbye to Yang, taken from his short story collection, Children Of The New World, and published in Popshot in 2016, is to become a feature film

The short story “Saying Goodbye to Yang”, which featured in Popshot magazine way back in 2016, is set to become a film starring Colin Farrell.

Alexander Weinstein’s short story, taken from his collection, Children Of The New World, follows a father and daughter as they try to save the life of a family member who is also a robot.

The film, titled After Yang, was adapted for the screen by the South Korea-born Kogonada (Columbus) and will be helmed by him also.

At Popshot Towers we are thrilled to read about a story that started on our pages and is set for the silver screen!
