In 2015, Wang Yichun became one of the most talked about newcomer directors with "What's in the Black Place". But after the film was released, she did not appear in front of the public too much. Now she's back with her new screenplay, Kidnapping Maohu (aka Stranger's Sugar). Recently, the film exposed a new casting information, and selected actors from the male protagonist Mao Hu and his parents.
The project was previously awarded the Most Valuable Investment Project at the Shanghai International Film Festival in 2018. The film will continue the black style of her previous works, which is different from the pure reality theme and slightly absurd. She was originally scheduled to start up in March and April this year, but now under special circumstances, the overall work of the crew has been postponed. Judging from the casting information, the film is expected to start in Tianjin in July.
However, this gap has also brought her a certain amount of spatial adjustment, and she has been in contact with the staff to rehearse future shooting plans through an online venue.
