This Tuesday at the Cannes Film Festival, the spotlight is on a filmmaker with a very recognisable cinematic style: Wes Anderson. His new movie "Asteroid City" includes an all-star cast, with Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, Edward Norton and many more. It's his third film to be presented in Cannes after "Moonrise Kingdom" and "The French Dispatch". We catch up with the stars on the red carpet.

Also on the show, Eve Jackson sits down with Maya Hawke, best known for her role in the TV series "Stranger Things" and her famous parents Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke. Homeland's Rupert Friend also told Eve about the Wes Anderson acting experience.

We then look back at the career of actress Margot Robbie, another of the famous names to play in "Asteroid City", and bring you a taster of Cannes by night, with a special exclusive performance from Grammy award-winning Nigerian star Burna Boy – just days after his sold-out performance to a crowd of 40,000 in Paris.
