The 2021 Venice Film Festival has announced its full lineup, including new titles from Jane Campion (The Power of the Dog), Maggie Gyllenhaal (The Lost Daughter), Ridley Scott (The Last Duel), Paul Schrader (The Card Counter), and Edgar Wright (Last Night in Soho), amongst others. Adding to highly anticipated films like the Zendaya and Timothée Chalamet–starring Dune, which is out of competition, and Kristen Stewart as Princess Diana in Spencer, each film features a star-studded cast.
