Martin Scorsese's 'Killer of the Flower Moon' will premiere at the Cannes Film Festival.
Apple’s grand plans for director Martin Scorsese’s hotly anticipated new feature, Killers of the Flower Moon, are beginning to take shape. The Cannes Film Festival announced on Friday that the epic Western has been officially selected to premiere at this year’s edition. It’s still unclear if the film will play in or out of competition, but we’ll know soon enough, when the festival announces this year’s lineup in April.
The 76th Cannes Film Festival is due to take place from May 16 to May 27, with two-time Palme d’Or winner Ruben Östlund serving as the president of the jury for the competition section. Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City and James Mangold’s Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny are also expected to premiere at Cannes this year. Scorsese, who remains perhaps the most admired living American director, himself has served as jury president at Cannes.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, Lily Gladstone, Jesse Plemons, Cara Jade Myers, JaNae Collins, Jillian Dion, Tantoo Cardinal and more are expected to join Scorsese for the red carpet premiere at the Grand Théâtre Lumière on May 20. Killers of the Flower Moon, based on David Grann’s non-fiction book about the serial murders of Osage Nation members during the 1920s, was famously set to star DiCaprio in the lead.
Scorsese is Playing a High-Stakes Game The legendary filmmaker has been working almost exclusively in rarified space, consistently securing budgets that are unheard of for films like this, although he has admitted that getting funding for his projects has become increasingly difficult in recent years. This is the primary reason behind his move to streaming.
Before bowing on Apple TV+ at an unspecified date, Killers of the Flower Moon will first be released exclusively in theaters, in partnership with Paramount Pictures, limited on October 6, followed by a wide release a couple of weeks later, on October 20, in the United States. The French release is set for October 18, 2023.
