Searchlight Pictures has announced that the upcoming film Yorgos Lanthimos‘ ‘Kinds of Kindness,’ is set to premiere in competition at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival.
The 77th Cannes Film Festival will be held from May 14th to May 25th, 2024.
The anthology film, directed by Lanthimos from a screenplay he co-wrote with Efthimis Filippou, also stars Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe, Margaret Qualley, Hong Chau, Joe Alwyn, Mamoudou Athie, and Hunter Schafer.
Kinds of Kindness is a triptych fable, following a man without choice who tries to take control of his own life; a policeman who is alarmed that his wife who was missing at sea has returned and seems a different person; and a woman determined to find a specific someone with a special ability, who is destined to become a prodigious spiritual leader.
‘Kinds of Kindness’ will hit theaters on June 21, 2024, by Searchlight Pictures. (Watch the trailer)
