London and Los Angeles team up for black comedy

Image London-based production company 42 has teamed up with Los Angeles-based A-Major Media to create a film based on Megan Chan Meiner's play Good Fortune. The writer herself adapts the work for the screen.

The play in the genre of black comedy and social satire tells the story of the Chinese girl Mei-Ling, who was adopted by the American Julia right after birth. The woman hoped that her loving daughter would always be there, but the matured Mei-Ling wants to go to college and leave her mother. And Julia has a new plan ...

42 is best known for its Cold War film The Courier (formerly Ironbark), starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Rachel Brosnahan, as well as the Netflix TV series Game Originally from England. A-Major Media, in turn, is engaged in an unnamed project with John Cho for New Line and a mini-series based on the book Everything I Never Told You by Celeste Ing.
