New Films From Roman Polanski, George Clooney Highlight 68th Venice Film Festival Lineup

Leader image for New Films From Roman Polanski, George Clooney Highlight 68th Venice Film Festival Lineup

When Toronto International Film Festival organizers revealed the first chunk of their schedule earlier this week, there were some notable omissions: the highly anticipated Tinker Tailer Soldier Spy and Roman Polanski’s Carnage, for instance. Seems those films were already packing bags for Italy. Both will debut in Venice in September, along with The Ides of March and previously reported Damsels in Distress, which will open and close the festival, respectively. The biggest fall movie not going to Venice or Toronto? Clint Eastwood’s J. Edgar, though perhaps that one is earmarked for the New York Film Festival. Click through for the full Venice lineup.

The Venice Film Festival runs from Aug. 31 through Sept. 10.
