Audrey Tatou will host the opening and closing ceremonies at the Cannes Film Festival.
The Da-Vinci Code Actress was picked as the hostess to France's most prestigious Film Festival. The 66th edition is set to begin on May 15th and close on May 26th when the winners are announced.
Up to this point the lineup has been kept under wraps by festival director Thierry Fremaux and will not release the list until April 18th.
"The Great Gatsby" will open the festival and will bring star power Leonardo Dicaprio, Tobey Maguire, and Carey Milligan to the Red Carpet. Additionally director Baz Luhrmann is expected to show.
Steven Spielberg (Lincoln) will be the president of this year's jury, and Palme d'Or winner Jane Campion (Bright Star) will preside over the short-film jury.
Speculation over which films will be selected has been in the media as of late with many pundits guessing the films. Among the rumored movies include Steve McQueen's "Twelve Years a Slave," Sofia Coppola's "The Bling Ring," Nicolas Winding Refn's "Only God Forgives," Asghar Farhadi's "The Past," and the Coen Brother's "Inside Llewyn Davis." Lar Von Trier's "Nymphomaniac" is also expected to open at the festival.
Tautou is currently the face of Chanel. Last year she attended the Festival and walked the red carpet for her film "Therese Desqueroux," which closed the 65th edition. She was last seen in "Delicacy" and "Coco Before Chanel." She will next star in "Mood Indigo" and "Chinese Puzzle."
