Pedro Almodóvar’s ‘The Room Next Door,’ Starring Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton, Eyeing Venice Film Festival Debut (EXCLUSIVE)


Pedro Almodóvar’s 'The Room Next Door,' starring Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton, looks to be headed to Venice Film Festival.

“Room Next Door,” which is produced by Almodóvar’s El Deseo banner, is set to hit theaters this year via Sony Pictures Classics in the U.S., Middle East and India, among other territories, while Warner Bros. is handling distribution in other parts of the world including the U.K., Spain and Italy. As previously anticipated by Variety, Venice’s upcoming 81st edition is turning out to be a star-studded affair with Lady Gaga, Joaquin Phoenix, Angelina Jolie, Daniel Craig and Monica Bellucci also among top Hollywood talents likely to launch high-profile titles from the Lido. Also believed to be locked into a Venice competition berth is Luca Guadagnino’s William S. Burroughs adaptation “Queer,” in which Daniel Craig plays the renowned counterculture author’s alter ego, an outcast American expat who lives in Mexico and is fighting a heroin addiction.
