Ron Howard will direct a new a currently untitled biopic about world-renowned pianist Lang Lang for AGC Studios and Howard and Brian Grazer’s Imagine Entertainment.
The story will be based on the memoir “Journey of a Thousand Miles” by Lang and David Ritz. That book traces Lang’s life story, from his childhood in the provincial city of Shenyang in Northern China to the peak of the global classic music industry.
Along the way, Lang’s family sacrificed almost everything to help their talented son succeed. Michelle Mulroney and Kieran Mulroney will adapt the book for the screen while Lang Lang and Jean-Jacques Cesbron will act as executive producers.
