Dano is also a director and writer, having helmed and co-wrote Wildlife which played Cannes Critics Week back in 2018. The SAG-AFTRA contract expires at the end of June, together the DGA contract.
Cannes Jury Boss and last year’s Palme d’Or winner, Triangle of Sadness filmmaker, Ruben Ostlund praised the strike, especially as a means to revolutionize one’s profession for the better.
Yesterday, Cocaine Bear director Elizabeth Banks, here at the Cannes market to promote her movie Dreamquil, a thriller about the dangers of AI, spoke out about the funky tech which is a major sticking point in WGA talks.
“We have to hold the line as a community,” Banks told Deadline. “I include the producers and the studios in that community. AI is going to be a tool. There’s no doubt about it. It’s coming fast and furious. But I would like it to be a tool used by the writers and not the studios to replace the writers. And once that horse is out the barn, I don’t know why anybody believes their job isn’t next.”

At least once, I can say the winners of the 2023 Cannes Film Festival competition are actually the right ones. Maybe not exactly in the order I would have put them, but still, out of the 21 movies competing, it is hard to argue about almost all of the choices made by the Ruben Ostlund-led jury that, among others, included Americans Brie Larson and Paul Dano.

Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic A year after collecting his second Palme d‘Or for “The Triangle of Sadness,” Ruben Östlund finds himself on the other end of the equation at the Cannes Film Festival, overseeing the official competition jury awarding this year’s prizes.
