Iranian-French actress Golshifteh Farahani and French actor Tahar Rahim are set to star in Julia Ducournau’s new film Alpha, her third feature after Cannes Palme d’Or winner Titane and breakout debut Raw.
Filmnation and Charades, which announced the project on Friday, are co-selling and will launch sales in Cannes. The project is produced by Eric Altmayer and Nicolas Altmayer at Mandarin & compagnie, Jean des Forêts and Amélie Jacquis at Petit Film, in co-production with Jean-Yves Roubin and Cassandre Warnauts at Frakas Productions.
It has been five years since Ducournau became the then second woman to win the Cannes Palme d’Or for Titane in 2021 and her third feature is highly anticipated.
She was tied up for much of 2021 and part of 2022 with the film’s awards and festival run. Since then, she directed two episodes of the Apple TV+ series The New Look, starring Ben Mendelsohn as Christian Dior and Juliette Binoche as Coco Chanel, and has also participated in France’s Villa Albertine artist residency program in New York.
