PARIS — Halle Berry and “Succession” star Jeremy Strong are part of the powerhouse panel that will join jury president Juliette Binoche at the Cannes Film Festival.
Though Binoche was named jury president in February, the film festival revealed the rest of the of jury Monday.
Italian actress Alba Rohrwacher will sit on the jury alongside Berry and Strong.
Indian director Payal Kapadia, winner of last year’s festival Grand Prize for “All We Imagine as Light,” and South Korean director Hong Sangsoo, a festival regular who has had 10 films in competition over the years and topped the Un Certain Regard category in 2010, will join.
Congolese director and documentary filmmaker Dieudo Hamadi, as well as Mexican filmmaker and producer Carlos Reygadas, who has had four films compete in various sections in past years, will also be on Binoche’s panel.
French-Moroccan novelist Leila Slimani will round out this year’s jury.
Announcing the full jury follows the film festival’s late additions to the lineup, including Lynne Ramsay’s dark comedy thriller “Die, My Love,” starring Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson.

Kristen Stewart’s directorial debut “The Chronology of Water” will compete in the Un Certain Regard section.
The late additions will add some fashion fanfare, with Stewart a longtime ambassador for the Chanel, and Lawrence signed to the house of Dior.
Berry, who will need to pack a full range of looks for the two-week festival, stepped out in a silver Christian Siriano at the Oscars, and attended the Vanity Fair after party in a sculptural Georges Chakra the same evening.
She attended the Michael Kors show at New York Fashion Week in 2023. More recently, the Oscar winner walked in Elie Saab’s Dubai fashion show last November wearing the red carpet dress that put the Lebanese designer on the fashion map.
