Telluride 2024: Literary Adaptations ‘Conclave,’ ‘Piano Lesson’ and Musicals ‘Better Man,’ ‘The End’ Expected for World Premieres


Telluride Film Festival 2024 is expected to have "Conclave," "Piano Lesson," "Nickel Boys," "Emilia Perez," "The End," "Better Man" and more.

Moreover, “Emilia Pérez” (TIFF Canadian), from legendary auteur Jacques Audiard, winner of the best actress Cannes prize for its four stars Karla Sofía Gascón, Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez and Adriana Paz. Telluride doesn’t typically showcase many carryovers from Sundance or Cannes unless there is a significant reason, such as a filmmaker or star receiving one of the festival’s tributes (e.g., Casey Affleck for “Manchester by the Sea”) or a movie that resonates deeply with the programmers. With Telluride concluding on Sept. 2, that also removes Brady Corbet’s “The Brutalist” with Adrien Brody, Jon Watts’ “Wolfs” with George Clooney and Brad Pitt, Luca Guadganino’s “Queer” with Daniel Craig and Todd Phillips’ “Joker: Folie à Deux” with Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga.
