Francis Ford Coppola's 'Megalopolis' is on track to sell to French distributor Le Pacte ahead of its Cannes premiere.
In the run-up to its world premiere in competition at the Cannes Film Festival, Francis Ford Coppola ‘s 135-minute epic “ Megalopolis ” is on track to sell to a French distributor, Le Pacte.
