Principal photography has begun for the much-discussed (on S&A anyway) film adaptation of celebrated author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Orange Prize-winning novel, Half Of A Yellow Sun, in Nigeria

We already know that Thandie Newton, John Boyega, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Dominic Cooper, and Genevieve Nnaji make up the film’s cast; but I only just learned that Anika Noni Rose and Game Of Thrones’s Joseph Mawle are also in the film, which is playwright Biyi Bandele’s feature film directorial debut.
