During the two-week festival, some of the most eagerly awaited films of 2024 will make their premieres, and there will also be parties and press conferences.
Gerwig, a writer and director for Barbie, is the president of the Cannes jury this year, which will select the film that will take home the coveted Palme d’Or.
The ceremonial opening ceremony and the French film Le Deuxieme Acte, sometimes known as The Second Act, premiered on Tuesday night.
Lily Gladstone, Jane Fonda, and Heidi Klum were among the celebrities who accompanied Gerwig on the red carpet.
