The 69th BFI London Film Festival (8 to 19 October) in partnership with American Express is delighted to announce that this year’s Cunard Gala will be the UK premiere of Noah Baumbach’s Jay Kelly at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall on Friday 10 October. Written by Noah Baumbach and Emily Mortimer, the comedy-drama features an ensemble cast including George Clooney, Adam Sandler, Laura Dern, Billy Crudup and Riley Keough.
Jay Kelly, the new film from four-time Academy Award nominee Noah Baumbach (The Squid and the Whale, Barbie, Marriage Story), follows famous movie actor Jay Kelly (George Clooney) and his devoted manager Ron (Adam Sandler) as they embark on a whirlwind and unexpectedly profound journey through Europe. Along the way, both men are forced to confront the choices they’ve made, the relationships with their loved ones, and the legacies they’ll leave behind.
