Juliette Binoche named jury president for 2025 Cannes Film Festival
The English Patient actress will watch all the films screening in the official competition and pick the winner of the coveted Palme d'Or for best film, among other prizes. Binoche will be supported by jury members who have yet to be announced. This year's Cannes will mark exactly 40 years since Binoche first attended the French festival with the Palme d'Or contender Rendez-vous, in which she had her first major role. "I'm looking forward to sharing these life experiences with the members of the Jury and the public," Binoche said in a statement.
