Toronto Film Festival: Ben Stiller’s ‘Nutcrackers’ to Open, Rebel Wilson’s ‘The Deb’ to Close 2024 Edition
Director David Gordon Green's "Nutcrackers," starring Ben Stiller, will open the Toronto International Film Festival. Rebel Wilson's directorial debut "The Deb" will close the 49th edition.
“The Deb” is an original musical comedy about two teenage cousins who dig deep to find a date to the Debutante Ball in a small Australian town. “This year’s Festival is shaping up to be a star-studded event with highly anticipated films that reflect the world around us with humour and empathy, like our opening and closing Night selections, ‘Nutcrackers’ and ‘The Deb,’” said Anita Lee, chief programming officer of TIFF. “TIFF aims to showcase both returning and first-time directors to the Festival on a big stage, and we are excited for fans to experience these two films — and the many diverse works premiering in between.”
