While the next edition of the legendary Cannes Film Festival will open on Tuesday May 14, 2024 on the Croisette, many celebrities are already expected on the red carpet of the Palais des Festivals. Among the latter, we can notably cite the actor Louis Garrel. A big regular on the red carpet, the actor will be present from the start of the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, to attend the screening of the film Second act, of which he is one of the headliners. As a reminder, this feature film was chosen by the organizers to open the event this year. It will therefore be screened at the Palais des Festivals in Cannes following the grand opening ceremony, which will be broadcast live on France 2. In the past, Louis Garrel has already visited the Croisette several times to attend various screenings. This was particularly the case in 2022.
That year, the actor was present on the red carpet for the screening of the film called The almond trees, in which he played a supporting role. He thus made the trip with the entire feature film team, which was made up of: Patrick Sobelman, Alexia Chardard, Alexandra Henochsberg, Sarah Henochsberg, Baptiste Carrion-Weiss, Suzanne Lindon, Sofiane Bennacer, Vassili Schneider, Nadia Tereszkiewcz, Micha Lescot, Clara Bretheau, Lena Garrel, Noham Edje, Eva Danino, Oscar Lesage and Liv Henneguier. The director of this film, Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi, was also present to attend the screening of her work in the Palais des Festivals in Cannes. For the record, the filmmaker knows Louis Garrel very well, given that they were a couple for five years. A period of time during which the two former lovers adopted a daughter.
Louis Garrel and Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi have maintained good relations since their separation
If the two artists have both rebuilt their lives since then, they appeared very close during the 2022 Cannes Film Festival. Indeed, the photographers present on the red carpet that year had the opportunity to immortalize several moments of complicity between Louis Garrel and Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi. The actor and the director have therefore maintained good relations since their breakup in 2012. Today, Louis Garrel has found love again in the arms of actress Laetitia Casta, with whom he gave birth to a little boy in 2021 .
