Francis Ford Coppola 's project of a lifetime. A work of science fiction with a staggering budget of over 100 million dollars... The story of an architect trying to create a utopia in New York, after a catastrophe has devastated the city. Francis Ford Coppola will present his new film, Megalopolis , in world premiere and official competition at the Cannes 2024 Film Festival.
It's a film that Coppola has wanted to make for a long time, and its immoderation is supported by a first-rate cast. The cast includes Adam Driver, Dustin Hoffman, Aubrey Plaza, Jon Voight, Jason Schwartzman, Shia LaBeouf, Laurence Fishburn and Forest Whitaker. We're already anticipating a 4-star staircase!
"We're delighted to welcome the man who belongs to the rather closed club of directors to have won two Palme d'Or awards - his were for Secret Conversation and Apocalypse Now in 1979. Megalopolis is a film that Francis Ford Coppola has wanted to make for a very long time, and he is doing us the honor of presenting it at the Cannes Festival. Cannes is dear to his heart, and he to ours," declared Thierry Frémaux at the presentation of the official selection on April 11.
