New Pope’s Older Brother: Leo XIV Watched Movie ‘Conclave’ Just Before Entering Real Conclave
The newly-elected Pope Leo XIV watched the movie 'Conclave' just before the real Vatican conclave started, his older brother says.
One of the new pope’s brothers has given an interview to a Chicago TV station, shedding light on how Cardinal Robert Prevost prepared for the Vatican conclave that elected him pontiff. The drama-thriller directed by Edward Berger and starring Ralph Fiennes, John Lithgow, Stanley Tucci, Isabella Rossellini, and Carlos Diehz, presents a fictional story of intrigue over the selection of a new pope to lead the Roman Catholic Church. In the real conclave that ended Thursday, Cardinal Prevost was also considered by many observers to be an unlikely choice given that no American had ever been named pope.
