French master Leos Carax is about to unveil his new film, titled “C’est Pas Moi,” which runs a little under an hour. It’s a reflective “essay” piece that will premiere out of competition at next week’s Cannes Film Festival.
I had reported last year, via my intel, that Carax and Léa Seydoux were supposed to team up on another film, and, finally, we can report that Seydoux’s presence was confirmed today (via Le Monde). Also, Adam Driver will be her co-star. That’s quite the pairing. The film is said to begin filming “soon.” That’s about all that we know, for now.
Carax is coming off his 2021 Cannes-winning “Annette,” which also starred Driver. He tends to take years between making films. His filmography is literally composed of just six films: 1984’s “Boy Meets Girl,” 1986’s “Mauvais Sang,” 1991’s “Lovers on the Bridge,” 1999’s “Pola X,” 2012’s “Holy Motors,” and 2021’s “Annette.”
