The week-plus-long Cannes Film Festival can take some time to get going, moving at a leisurely, French Riviera–ready pace. Not so this year: I've already caught up with multiple Oscar nominees wandering the Croisette, cohosted a packed luncheon at the Carlton Beach Club, and watched Juliette Binoche and Jeremy Strong discuss Donald Trump and his equal parts vague and alarming idea for a tariff on movies produced internationally. Day one affirmed what we already suspected: This will be one of the buzziest Cannes in years.
Movies headlined by the likes of Jennifer Lawrence, Emma Stone, Tom Cruise, and more are set to premiere over the next few days. Wes Anderson, Ari Aster, Kelly Reichardt, Richard Linklater, and others are duking it out for the coveted Palme d'Or. I'm on the ground covering it all, alongside Vanity Fair's chief critic, Richard Lawson—keep reading our live blog, which will be running through the whole festival, and we promise you won't miss a thing. |
Surrounding all the creative peacocking at Cannes is a whole cottage industry of parties, panels, and other Euro pomp. VF will be covering the dizzying highs and wine-soaked lows of international film's most important annual event. Follow along with us here for up-to-the-minute news, gossip, and reviews. |

Whether the stars are inspired by the Croisette's picturesque surroundings or are just adhering to the festival's formal dress code, the Cannes Film Festival red carpet is the place for cinematic style spotting. |
The online marketplace PublicSquare touts itself as a values-driven alternative to Amazon for the MAGA crowd, where shoppers can purchase hoodies declaring "This Girl Loves Capitalism" and shirts imploring others to "Stop Supporting Commies." A close look at the business reveals a working model of a red-pilled economic fantasy. |
At a Miss Maine USA pageant inside a Holiday Inn, the 73-year-old Super Bowl–winning coach cheered on his 24-year-old girlfriend, who was allegedly worried that the CBS Sunday Morning publicity would hurt her chances of winning. |

The beloved performer, who could win his first-ever acting Emmy this year, gives a spirited interview to VF's David Canfield, even discussing his onscreen Only Murders in the Building romance (subject to off-screen rumors!).
Q: You've also had this beautiful romantic arc with Meryl Streep, which culminated in a wedding this past season. What's it like to fall for Meryl Streep onscreen?
A: Well, she's the greatest actress maybe ever. I remember the first day we were shooting season three. I've been doing this for a while, and this is our third season. I was going to work, and I thought, Gee, I'm a little bit nervous today; I haven't felt that for a while. Because I was working with Meryl Streep. Selena [Gomez] was so excited to meet her, and I said, "Why are you nervous to work with Meryl? She's only been nominated 19 times for an Oscar." And Selena said, "Uh-uh, 21 times." And then I thought, Who's made 21 movies? |
