While this new project was announced ahead of a United Kingdom production schedule, Turtletaub is also currently promoting his latest film at the Edinburgh International Film Festival. This cinematic transition highlights the director's ongoing focus on literary adaptations that explore deep human connections and the complexities of life and mortality.
