Toronto International Film Festival: ‘Megalopolis’ Red-Carpet Premiere (photos)

Francis Ford Coppola’s ambitious “Megalopolis” had its premiere at Toronto Film Festival 2024 with star Adam Driver. Giancarlo Esposito, Nathalie Emmanuel, Grace VanderWaal, and D.B. Sweeney also star.

“Megalopolis” is a Roman Epic set in an imagined Modern America. The City of New Rome must change, causing conflict between Cesar Catilina (Adam Driver), a genius artist who seeks to leap into a utopian, idealistic future, and his opposition, Mayor Franklyn Cicero (Giancarlo Esposito), who remains committed to a regressive status quo, perpetuating greed, special interests, and partisan warfare. Torn between them is socialite Julia Cicero (Nathalie Emmanuel), the mayor’s daughter, whose love for Cesar has divided her loyalties, forcing her to discover what she truly believes humanity deserves.

“Megalopolis” opens inn IMAX on September 23, in theaters on September 27, 2024.

Check out some of the night’s highlights below.
