At ‘Die, My Love' Cannes Premiere, Person Dressed as Bird Flies in Face of Festival Red Carpet Rules
Thanksgiving came early at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival. While hitting the red carpet for the premiere of the Lynne Ramsay-directed film Die, My Love, a person appeared in a bird suit, leaving the crowd very confused about the correlation. The bird posed for photos next to Raphaël Quenard.

Another movie, Dangerous Animals, took place a couple of blocks away and about 15 minutes before Die, My Love's carpet began. And even though the film is about sharks, not turkeys, the film's title is fair to cause some confusion. The wild fashion choice came after the festival announced earlier this week that there is a ban this year for no nudity and 'voluminous' outfits. 'For decency reasons, nudity is prohibited on the red carpet, as well as in any other area of the festival. Voluminous outfits, in particular those with a large train, that hinder the proper flow of traffic of guests and complicate seating in the theater are not permitted,' read Cannes' official charter. 'The festival welcoming teams will be obligated to prohibit red carpet access to anyone not respecting these rules.' The horror-comedy Die, My Love earned a six-minute standing ovation at Cannes. It stars Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson and is an adaptation of the 2017 novel. Lawrence plays Grace, a new mother, suffering from postpartum depression and struggling to keep her sanity. Ramsay also wrote the script with Enda Walsh and Alice Birch. On the night before its world premiere, The Hollywood Reporter hosted a dinner in the French Rivera with its cast, filmmakers and collaborator.

Cannes According to… Super Agent Jeremy Barber
Best bargain in Cannes? There are no bargains in Cannes. More from The Hollywood Reporter 'The Chronology of Water' Review: Kristen Stewart Makes a Boldly Assured Directing Debut, Starring a Transformative Imogen Poots Spike Lee Toasts 'Highest 2 Lowest' With The Hollywood Reporter and Threads at Cannes Bash Ruben Östlund's 'The Entertainment System Is Down' Sells to Memento for France Favorite meal in Cannes? Tie between La Pizza and Le Maschou. Most overrated restaurant? Does anyone actually answer this question? Biggest Cannes faux pas? Attempting to attend a film at the Palais wearing a sneaker shoe and/or a non-bow tie with your tux. Best place to grab a drink after 3 a.m.? Hotel du Cap. Place to avoid during the festival? The lobby of literally any hotel along the Croisette. Biggest Cannes pet peeve? The crowds and traffic. Cannes guilty pleasure? The movies … all of the movies. Strangest request you've ever received in Cannes? When I worked at Artisan, I was asked/told to creep down a hallway at the Majestic Hotel and listen under the door to hear how much a competitor was offering for a movie we wanted to buy. Most interesting celeb encounter? Watching the sun rise at the Eden-Roc as Bruce Willis DJ'd following the Armageddon premiere and the bar was emptied of its contents. One thing you won't travel without, besides your phone? My backup phone … Attitude toward timing/reporting on standing ovations at premieres? I am not a fan of any reporting on the length of time someone spends standing and cheering, or for that matter doing anything else.

Abel Tesfaye Is 'Brainstorming' His Next Move With ‘The Weeknd' Stage Name: 'We Don't Have Any Definite Answers'
After past performances in Uncut Gems and The Idol, Abel Tesfaye is continuing to solidify himself as an actor, and on Tuesday night debuted his starring role in Hurry Up Tomorrow. Tesfaye, also known as The Weeknd, plays a fictionalized version of himself in the Lionsgate project, as a musician on the verge of a mental breakdown who is pulled into an existential odyssey by a mysterious stranger. The film is a companion piece to his album of the same name, which was released in January. More from The Hollywood Reporter Rihanna to Release First Song in Three Years for 'Smurfs' Soundtrack Celine Dion Makes Surprise Video Appearance at Eurovision Song Contest: "Music Unites Us" Pro Sound Effects Library Teams With Musical AI to Create Licensed Training Datasets Trey Edward Shults directed the movie, and Tesfaye told The Hollywood Reporter at the New York premiere he is someone 'I've been such a fan of and watching the film, the first cut, and praying that it fit in his body of work — luckily it does and I'm really proud of that because I'm a huge fan.' When it comes to the future of his acting journey, the musician noted, 'It's all art to me, so if it connects with me and I feel inspired to make it, then I'm gonna make it.' The film also comes at a time when Tesfaye has spoken about retiring his stage name and has previously signaled that Hurry Up Tomorrow would likely be the final chapter of The Weeknd. But when asked about that decision on the carpet, he said, 'We're brainstorming it right now. I feel like we don't have any definite answers, but I haven't dropped it yet because I'm on tour, so I've still gotta get out there and see the fans.' Ortega — wearing the iconic Christian Dior newspaper dress that Carrie Bradshaw wore in Sex and the City — explained that the 'whole point of the film is it's supposed to be very enigmatic' and highlighted the value of her 'support system' in Tesfaye, Keoghan and Shults. 'It's challenging to insert yourself into such a personal story for somebody else and allow them to be vulnerable and create a safe space to do that but then also share your own experiences,' she acknowledged. The star also spoke about her desire to direct, after recently revealing she wants to direct a script she's been working on for 10 years. When asked if fans can expect her in the director's chair soon, Ortega responded, 'I don't know, there's also a lot of pressure on it, but I really would. I think I would rather wait for the right time and when I feel ready — and I'll know when that happens but when I do it, I want to be able to give all my time and effort in it. I'm working on projects I'm really excited about right now so maybe, everything needs its due time.' Hurry Up Tomorrow hits theaters on Friday. Neha Joy contributed to this report.

Films Addressing Oct. 7 Aftermath Win Berlin Jewish Film Festival
Two films that engage directly with the experiences of the October 7 attacks and their aftermath took top honors at the 2025 Jewish Film Festival Berlin Brandenburg (JFBB), Germany's largest Jewish film festival. Of Dogs and Men, a docudrama from Israeli director Dani Rosenberg, shot at the Nir Oz kibbutz just weeks after the attacks, won the Gershon Klein Feature Film Award, the JFFB's top prize, with the jury praising the movie's 'courageous gesture' of choosing to film in a war zone and its artful blending of fiction and documentary storytelling. The jury also highlighted Ori Avinoam's lead performance as a teenage girl who, after narrowly escaping the attack, returns to the kibbutz to search for her lost dog. More from The Hollywood Reporter Daisy-May Hudson Debut 'Lollipop' Follows a Young Mother's Journey Post-Prison (Exclusive Trailer) How London Became the New Hollywood Jirí Bartoska, Czech Actor and Longtime Karlovy Vary Film Festival President, Dies at 78 The Gershon Klein Documentary Film Award went to Holding Liat by U.S. filmmaker Brandon Kramer, which chronicles the experience of a family whose daughter and son-in-law were kidnapped to Gaza on October 7. The jury described the film as 'a story of parenthood, perseverance, and politics,' underscoring its focus on private grief amid public crisis. A Special Mention in the documentary category was given to The Belle from Gaza, directed by Yolande Zauberman. Zvi Landsman received the Intercultural Dialogue Award for Jacob De Haan: A Voice Out of Time, a portrait of the late Dutch Jewish writer, journalist and noted anti-Zionist who was persecuted in his lifetime for his homosexuality and finally assassinated by a Zionist paramilitary organization. The jury lauded the film for its 'quiet power and lyrical depth' in exploring identity, belief, and historical memory. The Newcomer Award was presented earlier in the week to Israeli director Tom Nesher for her debut feature Come Closer, a portrait of two women navigating grief and hidden desire. The 31st JFFB, held for the first time in May, was a resounding public success, with sold-out screenings and packed houses for the week-long festival. 'We've received a lot of positive feedback for our diverse program selection, the atmosphere in the cinemas was excellent, and the conversations between filmmakers presenting their work at the JFBB and the audience were extremely engaging,' said JFBB managing director Andreas Stein. 'The festival is steadily evolving into a place of exchange for everyone interested in Jewish life in Germany and around the world.'
