Refresh for latest…: While a handful of big-ticket Cannes Film Festival titles have already been revealed, the bulk of the Official Selection for the 76th edition will be unveiled today. General Delegate Thierry Frémaux is announcing the lineup for the May 16-27 event from Paris’ UGC Normandie cinema this morning and we are updating the list live below; you can also watch the livestream here.
Frémaux will be joined by Iris Knobloch, the former WarnerMedia France and Germany boss who has succeeded Pierre Lescure as Cannes Film Festival President.
Confirmed ahead of today’s rundown of the films in Official Selection, Indiana Jones is making a return to the red carpet with Harrison Ford due in town for the world premiere of Disney/Lucasfilm’s Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny directed by James Mangold.
Martin Scorsese’s latest, Killers of the Flower Moon, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro, has a berth — whether it’s in competition should be revealed today. Paramount will release the Apple Original Films drama theatrically in France on October 18.
We’ve also reported that Wes Anderson’s star-packed Asteroid City from Focus will be heading into the Palais while the festival this week announced that Pedro Almodóvar’s short, Strange Way of Life, starring Ethan Hawke and Pedro Pascal, will world premiere on the Riviera.
And, in what’s sure to be a draw on opening night, Johnny Depp’s so-called “comeback” movie, Jeanne Du Barry, will raise the curtain on the fest on May 16.
Among other movies tipped to launch on the Croisette are Ken Loach’s The Old Oak, Alice Rohrwacher’s La Chimera and Zone of Interest, Jonathan Glazer’s long-anticipated return to feature filmmaking. Further speculation has circled around
