Alongside the announcement, the production team released a romantic-themed poster that quickly captured public attention.

The project is directed by Qu Youning and written by chief screenwriter Zhang Junbo alongside Li Haidi.

It is produced by iQIYI in collaboration with several production houses, including Hou Lai Culture, Open Picture, Laoyou Pictures, and Qiyan Bayu.

Filming is expected to last approximately 100 days, with completion targeted for August 2026.

A Touch of Green is scheduled for exclusive release on iQIYI in 2027.
