Warner Bros. is working with BuzzFeed Motion Pictures to tell the true story of the internet phenomenon.
华纳兄弟正与BuzzFeed影业合作，将一个真实的互联网事件拍摄成电影。
The Big Bang Theory star Jim Parsons is set to topline Brother Orange, Warner Bros. and BuzzFeed Motion Pictures' big-screen telling of the internet phenomenon, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Parsons will play BuzzFeed editor Matt Stopera, who in 2014 had his iPhone stolen. Unbeknownst to him, the cellphone made its way to China and, a year later,
random pictures began appearing on his photo stream, including a number of pictures of a serious-looking man in front of an orange tree.
The editor did a series of stories
about the incident, and the story went viral in China, exploding on social platform Weibo with more than 20 million views in 24 hours and over 100 million total shares. There, the online community
dubbed the man Li Hongjun ("Brother Orange") and helped Stopera track him down. Stopera eventually sought out Hongjun in China, with both becoming overnight
celebrities. Back in the US, the two appeared on Ellen.
The movie's story follows an unlikely, accidental friendship that
transcends cultural divides.
Stopera is executive producing Brother Orange alongside Broad City co-creator Ilana
Glazer (up until recently, the two were roommates), Ellen DeGeneres and Jeff Kleeman.
