Cannes (France) (AFP) - Sebastian Stan immersed himself 24/7 in Donald Trump's early life to research the new biopic "The Apprentice" -- and came to an unexpected realisation. "A lot of the behaviour and the personality is much more relatable than we want to admit," said the Hollywood star, who has won critical acclaim for his uncanny performance. The film, which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, has drawn huge controversy and legal threats from the ex-president, particularly for a scene in which Trump is shown raping his wife. But much of the film portrays a younger Trump as a nervous, n...

Cannes (France) (AFP) - The director of an explosive biopic that shows Donald Trump raping his wife defended the controversial scene on Tuesday, telling AFP the alleged incident is "well known" and explains the ex-president's character. "The Apprentice", which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, traces Trump's origins as an ambitious young property developer in 1970s and 1980s New York. Donald Trump's team has vowed to sue the producers, calling it "garbage" and "pure malicious defamation". The most controversial scene is that of Trump raping his first wife, Ivana, after she belittles him f...

Der frühere US-amerikanische Präsident Donald Trump will Medienberichten zufolge gegen einen Film vorgehen, der ihn in einem negativen Licht erscheinen lässt. «Wir werden eine Klage einreichen, um gegen die eklatant falschen Behauptungen dieser angeblichen Filmemacher vorzugehen», sagte Trump-Sprecher Steven Cheung dem Branchen-Magazin «Variety». «Alle reden darüber, dass er viele Leute verklagt hat, aber sie reden nicht über seine Erfolgsquote», sagte der Regisseur des Films, Ali Abbasi, am Dienstag in Cannes. Es geht um seinen Film «The Apprentice», der bei den Filmfestspielen Premiere feier...

Cannes (France) (AFP) - Two Hollywood legends make their comeback at the Cannes Film Festival on Sunday, as Kevin Costner launched his sprawling self-funded Western and Demi Moore returned in a gore-filled body horror flick. The star-studded premieres arrive midway through the world's most famous movie festival, where "Emilia Perez" -- a musical about a transgender drug lord, starring Selena Gomez -- is currently the talk of the town. Epic Western "Horizon, an American Saga" is a passion project for Costner, who told AFP he had started working on the screenplay in 1988. Despite having enormous...

Cannes (France) (AFP) - As one of the West's most famous Buddhists, and a close friend of the Dalai Lama, Richard Gere has thought long and hard about the moral quandary at the heart of his new film "Oh, Canada". Gere plays Leonard Fife, a revered documentary filmmaker with a murky past, who is hailed as a hero for his refusal to fight in the Vietnam War. "Whether it is a just or unjust war, can I kill someone? What do I do to defend our family?... We all ask ourselves that question," Gere said at Cannes Film Festival on Saturday. According to his Buddhist studies, "from an absolute point of ...

Cannes (AFP) - Emma Stone a déclaré samedi à Cannes que son réalisateur fétiche Yorgos Lanthimos, avec lequel elle travaille depuis longtemps et a remporté un Oscar ("Pauvres créatures"), était en quelque sorte sa muse. Et non l'inverse. "C'est lui ma muse", a souri l'actrice pendant la conférence de presse du film "Kinds of Kindness", en compétition. "Je suis une féministe", a déclaré l'actrice de "La La land", interrogée sur le sujet. "Si c'est du militantisme ou pas ? C'est juste ce qui a du sens pour moi". Quand elle choisit un film, c'est parce qu'elle "trouve les personnages intéressants...

Franz Rogowski ist einer der wenigen deutschen Schauspieler mit internationaler Karriere. Doch er würde auch gerne wieder in seinem Heimatland arbeiten, sagte der 38-Jährige in Cannes. «Es ist keine bewusste Entscheidung, dass ich international arbeite», sagte er. «Es ist schwer, interessante Stücke zu finden, interessante Texte, allgemein einen interessanten Kopf, der mit anderen Dingen arbeitet als nur mit einer Kopie der Realität. Ich denke, das Einzige, was ich tue, ist, dass ich Drehbücher lese und versuche, solche zu finden, mit denen ich mich identifizieren kann und an die ich glaube. I...

Paris (AFP) - This year's Cannes Film Festival hosts a trio of heartthrobs from the back end of the 20th century, making their comeback on the red carpet: Demi Moore, Kevin Costner and Richard Gere. From "Ghost" to "Pretty Woman" to "Dances with Wolves", they are responsible for some of Generation X's favourite movie moments. AFP looks at what they've been up to since. Demi Moore: ghost girlOn the Croisette, 61-year-old Moore will be making her unexpected return in slasher-horror "The Substance", competing for the festival's top prize, the Palme d'Or.

Cannes (France) (AFP) - Hollywood titan Francis Ford Coppola returned to the Cannes Film Festival on Thursday to unveil his enormously hyped, wildly experimental and deeply divisive "Megalopolis". The 85-year-old director's arrival at the world-famous movie festival -- where decades earlier he twice scooped the top prize Palme d'Or -- has been the frenzied talk on cafe terraces in the swanky Cote d'Azur city. Would the epic $120-million project that he self-funded, and that has been gestating for some 40 years, be another masterpiece emerging from chaos, like "Apocalypse Now" all those decades...
