Cannes Film Festival 2019 Lineup Revealed

August Diehl and Valerie Pachner in Terrence Malick's "A Hidden Life"

More news from the Cannes front. 

The lineup is here and we are excited! The Cannes Film Festival’s artistic director Thierry Frémaux and Cannes president Pierre Lescure unveiled the festival’s lineup Thursday morning from the UGC Normandie theater on Paris’ Champs-Elysées.

The lineup of the annual festival includes some obvious selections such as expected names such as Pedro Almodóvar (Pain & Glory), Terrence Malick (A Hidden Life) and Ken Loach (Sorry We Missed You). However, the official selection also includes an impressive 13 female filmmakers out of the 47 films that were announced. Noticeably absent from the list is Quentin Tarantino’s anticipated Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which is still in editing. All that remains to be seen is whether the project, which is still in editing, be completed in time for the festival.

Frémaux and Lescure also confirmed that the festival will not to allow any Netflix films into competition.
