Contenders Film: Los Angeles Lineup Set, Spotlighting Stars And Filmmakers Behind 21 Oscar Hopefuls


The lineup has been set for Contenders Film Los Angeles, Deadline’s signature movie awards-season event.

The showcase, which will take place Saturday, November 16 in Hollywood at the DGA Theater, features a star-studded lineup of actors and filmmakers behind 21 Oscar-hopeful films that have premiered this year, many first seen at festivals like Sundance, Cannes, Venice, Telluride and Toronto. Also from Sundance is Saoirse Ronan and her sensational performance in Sony Pictures Classics’ The Outrun(she will also be joining the Contenders panel for Apple TV Originals’ Steve McQueen drama Blitz), as well as team behind Amazon MGM Studios’ breakout hit My Old Ass. Chief among them are Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton, so brilliant in Pedro Almodóvar’s The Room Next Door, which took the festival’s top prize the Golden Lion; all three will be on our stage today to discuss the Sony Classics film.
