Iris Knobloch has been unanimously re-elected as president of the Cannes Film Festival. After taking over in 2022, her second three-year term will now take her through July 2028.
“I am profoundly honored to once again receive the trust of our Board of Directors. I take great pride in the success of the past two editions and I am excited to continue this journey alongside our General Delegate Thierry Frémaux and our dedicated teams in the years to come,” she said in a Wednesday statement. “Together, we will continue working hand in hand to nurture and enhance this magnificent Festival, a unique platform where all films, voices and talent find their place.”
