Meryl Streep has made her big arrival for her 2024 Cannes Film Festival photo call!
The 74-year-old Oscar winning actress posed for photos at her photo call held at the Palais des Festivals on Tuesday (May 14) in Cannes, France. Later today, Meryl will receive the honorary Palme d’Or award at the opening night of the festival.
In a statement, Meryl shared with THR, “I am immeasurably honored to receive the news of this prestigious award. To win a prize at Cannes, for the international community of artists, has always represented the highest achievement in the art of filmmaking. To stand in the shadow of those who have previously been honored is humbling and thrilling in equal part. I so look forward to coming to France to thank everyone in person this May!”
The last time she appeared at the festival was back in 1989, when she won the Best Actress award for her work in Fred Schepisi’s Evil Angels a Cry in the Dark.
FYI: Meryl is wearing a Michael Kors look with a LilySilk shirt, Jimmy Choo shoes, Zameer Kassam hoop earrings, a Gigi Burris hat, and Prada sunglasses.
