Cate Blanchett, Timothée Chalamet, Greta Gerwig and Harry Styles are among the names heading for the Venice Lido later this year, it has been revealed, after the Venice film festival announced its lineup for its 2022 edition.
Blanchett is starring in TÁR, a drama about a leading female orchestra conductor written and directed by Little Children’s Todd Field, and which will compete for the festival’s prestigious Golden Lion. The films it will be up against include Bones and All, starring Chalamet and Taylor Russell in a story adapted from the novel by Camille DeAngelis about teenage cannibals, directed by Luca Guadagnino. Gerwig appears opposite Adam Driver in Noah Baumbach’s adaptation of Don DeLillo’s celebrated novel White Noise, a project with a long and involved production history, which was previously announced as the festival’s opening gala. Styles stars opposite Florence Pugh in Don’t Worry Darling, a 50s-set suburban thriller directed by Olivia Wilde, which has secured a non-competitive slot.
