Alexander Payne Announced As Jury President At 2025 Venice Film Festival
Venice Film Festival Unveils 2025 Jury President
The director follows in the footsteps of recent jury presidents Isabelle Huppert (2024), Damien Chazelle (2023), Julianne Moore 2022, Bong Joon-ho (2021) and Cate Blanchett (2020).
