Cannes 2024: Full Competition Jury announced - featuring Omar Sy, Lily Gladstone and Eva Green

The full Cannes Film Festival jury has been announced, and it’s looking mighty good.

The eight members of its main Competition jury join previously announced president Greta Gerwig in deciding the Palme d’Or and other key prizes at 77th edition, which runs from 14 – 25 May.

They are: 

The competition line-up for the upcoming festival includes Sean Baker’s Anora; Donald Trump biopic The Apprentice from Ali Abbasi; Andrea Arnold’s Bird, starring Barry Keoghan and Franz Rogowski; Yorgos Lanthimos’ Kinds of Kindness, starring Poor Things actors Emma Stone and Willem Dafoe; Paul Schrader’s Oh, Canada, led by Richard Gere and Jacob Elordi; Paolo Sorrentino’s Parthenope with Gary Oldman; David Cronenberg’s The Shrouds; and Coralie Fargeat’s body horror The Substance.

A stellar line-up (see it in full here), but all eyes will be on Francis Ford Coppola’s epic passion project Megalopolis, starring Adam Driver. This year marks the return of The Godfather director to Cannes at the age of 85. He has twice won the Palme d'Or - for The Conversation in 1974 and for Apocalypse Now in 1979.

Last week, three more films were added to the competition section: The Most Precious of Cargoes from Michel Hazanavicius; Trois kilomètres jusqu’à la fin du monde by Emanuel Parvu; and The Seed of the Sacred Fig by Mohammad Rasoulof, the Iranian director who has faced prison time for criticising the government. It is unclear if he will be able to attend the festival.

It was also announced that Oliver Stone will present his latest documentary, Lula, about the current president of Brazil, in the Out of Competition section.

Canadian director Xavier Dolan was previously announced as president of the Un Certain Regard jury, which will also include filmmakers
