French actor Vincent Lindon has joined the increasingly crowded cast of Ruben Ostlund’s The Entertainment System is Down.
He joins previously announced Keanu Reeves, Kirsten Dunst, Daniel Bruhl, Samantha Morton and Nicolas Braun.
The project is set to start shooting in 2025 and is set on a long-haul flight where the entertainment system fails and passengers are forced to face the horror of being bored. In a full-circle moment, Lindon, a seasoned French actor, was the Jury President at Cannes in 2022, when Ostlund’s
Triangle of Sadness took home the Palme d’Or. The film is Ostlund’s seventh and his second in English language. It reunites the director with Erik Hemmendorff of Plattform Produktion and Philippe Bober at Coproduction Office.
